Synopsis

While all the American men are fighting against the nazis in WW II, the American baseball league decides to keep the professional league running with women teams. Dottie (Geena Davis) and Kit (Lori Petty) are among the women, who are discovered by a scout and given a chance to escape their dull life as a housewife. The Chicago Peaches soon learn that they're not taken very serious, not even by their coach Jimmy (Tom Hanks). Until they show the men they sure know how to play ball. Not only do the
women get respect and success, they also learn about teamplay and friendship.

Rating

The plot, based on the true story of the first American Girl Baseball League, is original, funny and touching. With big names like Hanks and Davis, it's no wonder that there's some great acting too. Madonna does it a pretty good job as well, playing the role of Mae, a former dancer and a born men hunter. The character fits Madonna very well and has a striking resemblance with other movie roles, like Susan (Desperately Seeking Susan) and even Evita. Best part of the role was her dancing in a bar; Madonna is still a dancer in the first place. 8/10

 Trivia

 Madonna and Rosie O'Donnell, best pals on the set Mae and Doris, became real-life best friends. It was O'Donnell who shot the cover of the Drowned World Tour video, 9 years after this movie.
