neutral · AI labelView post →"The Scout" is about an exhausting day in a location scout's life—but the film is the opposite of a drag. It's a love letter to the everyday strangeness of the average New Yorker, and a reminder that behind every door in the city, someone is living out a private drama that they're dying to share.

neutral · AI labelView post →I love the movie The Scout. Watching Shohei Ohtani throw 100 made me realize it was basically come true. Except instead of Albert Brooks, his interpreter stole millions of dollars to gamble. Real life is probably more interesting than the movies. m.imdb.com/title/tt0111...

neutral · AI labelView post →I’m not gonna try and say THE SCOUT is a perfect movie, but I do like it a lot, particularly how it manages to be subversive in its uplift! A lot of stories like this tend to be darker and that’s totally valid, but this one dares to be hopeful and it feels fresh for it.
positive · AI labelView post →Let me add my nomination for worst baseball movie: The Scout. Albert Brooks is "banished" to scout in Mexico. Banished to scout prospects in a country filled with great ballplayers. Oof Lucky for him, he finds a white guy, so it all works out. Crazy bad.
