What the Critics say | ||
Cape Argus / The Star Geoffrey McNab Disney film not cricket but baseball | 10 | |
Die Burger Laetitia Pople Disney se sport-resep sjarmant | 10 | |
Cape Times Michael Rechtshaffen Disney hits a home run | 10 | |
ReelViews James Berardinelli The movie is typical live action Disney: family-friendly and simplistic with nothing controversial and an upbeat ending. It's a little old-fashioned. Unfortunately, it's also a little boring. | 10 | |
Rolling Stone Peter Travers Hamm, holding steady and true against a wash of cornball, makes Million Dollar Arm worth rooting for. | 13 | |
ScreenIt C. Fuchs It might not be a cinematic grand slam that would get spectators jumping up and down in delight, but it's clearly an outing that most everyone can immensely enjoy. | 13 | |

Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer Pleasant to a fault, Million Dollar Arm is a middle-of-the-plate pitch that coasts on Jon Hamm's considerable charm without adding any truly original curves to Disney's inspirational sports formula. | 12 | |
