About this product

Product Information

Hollywood's tradition of remaking classic movies continues with this 21st-century updating of the 1976 romp, THE BAD NEWS BEARS. Acclaimed director Richard Linklater (THE SCHOOL OF ROCK, DAZED AND CONFUSED) pays respect to Michael Ritchie's original film by updating it rather than reinventing it. Stepping into the tough-to-fill shoes of Walter Matthau, Billy Bob Thornton plays the liquor-swilling, foulmouthed Morris Buttermaker, who has agreed to coach a Little League team for the paycheck. Unfortunately for him, his assembled team consists of the league's most inept outcasts. Gradually, however, Buttermaker's determination wins out, to the point where he recruits an ex-girlfriend's gifted daughter, Amanda Whurlitzer (Sammi Kane Kraft), to step onto the pitcher's mound. The team is complete when local bad boy Kelly Leak (Jeffrey Davies) lends his overflowing talent to the cause. Soon, the Bears are climbing their way to the top of the standings, resulting in a championship showdown with the Yankees, who are managed by the ridiculously pompous Coach Bullock (Greg Kinnear).As with 2003's THE SCHOOL OF ROCK, Linklater proves he has an uncanny ability to draw out compelling performances from child actors. But it is Thornton who steals the show. Incorporating elements from his characters in BAD SANTA and FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS, his variation on the Morris Buttermaker character is another finely crafted achievement, a reprehensible man who somehow remains likeable and compelling. The script from Glenn Ficarra and John Requa throws a few modern curveballs into the mix, yet they still remain faithful to Bill Lancaster's original vision, resulting in a crowd-pleasing film that is definitely not intended for young children.

  • Bad News Bears Hits It Out Of The Park!

    Let me start off by disclosing I don't like remakes in general. I find it wasteful and dishonest to film an "updated" version of an old film if the original source material remains relevant, i.e. story and characters etc... The Plus side to doing remakes seems to introduce younger generations to older films and if done correctly can actually enhance the original while building its own following. This is the case with this film. Billy Bob Thornton captures the washed up and out coach perfectly without destroying Walter Matheau's original character. The language and antics may be cruder, but that just reflects society and the audiences' tastes for our current time and in no way detracts from the comic aspects it aims for. The original team players are all accounted for and stay true to ...

  • Bad News Bears

    Billy Bob Thornton took filmgoers by surprise in 1994's Sling Blade, emerging as one of the screen's most skillful character actors. So who could have guessed, a mere decade later, he would become Hollywood's foremost on-screen degenerate? Thanks to his matter-of-fact intensity and smooth southern drawl, Thornton's taken on a few authoritarian roles (Armageddon, Friday Night Lights). But an unforgettable cameo as a lecherous American president in Love Actually and the hilarious, MPAA-defying Bad Santa apparently created a whole new niche for B.B.T. It didn't take long for studio alchemists to throw a remake of 1976's The Bad News Bears his way, even offering the re-write to Bad Santa scribes Glenn Ficarra and John Requa. Thornton stars as Morris Buttermaker, a womanizing, down-on-his-luck ...

  • Writen by a psychoc writer.

    The re-make of: "The Bad News Bears" is a psychotic movie turned on it's head! But even if it weren't: "on it's head" it would still fail. As an adult I found the first half to be a riot; I'd give it 4 to 5 stars. The problem is that they made a great raunchy R rated movie and then spliced it to a children's PG movie. Thus- responsible parents left with their kids before the movie was half-way through. Then they changed it to a kid's movie. Leaving those of us- remaining in the theatre- saying: " You SOB's, You turned this into a kid's movie!" Think of: starting a movie as: Badder Santa" and then turning the second half into: "Sand Lot". This just doesn't work. Had they kept it raunchy it would be great and Billy Bob would have out done Walter Mathow. It's like having the left ...

  • Smart mouth humor

    I love this movie because of the great interaction between Billy Bob Thorton and the kids. Granted some of the kids are already smart asses, Billy Bob doesn't help much by serving as their role model. Examples... passing out drunk during practice and getting a gentleman's club the kids' team sponsor. Great movie. I would say is more for adults than for kids.
