I don't like sports films mainly because they never show the character building aspects but instead the cheats, poor sports and users abound ... dean cain is neither an actor nor a baseball coach ... the guy that played micky's father was a selfish bore ...

A Mile In His Shoes is not one of your Hollywood top star acting movies. It isn't about blowing up things, or entertaining the viewer at all times so they're always on the edge of their seat. Instead, it's rather low key, character driven and character centered. Special effects? No, but neither are they warranted in this story. I found this to be more realistic in many ways, while it explored faith in God (and loss of that faith), the loss of a child, disabilities, challenges, and how they intertwine in life. The movie includes a decent portrayal of a young person with a disability, who chooses to move beyond his fears and take steps to be successful, sink or swim. This could inspire those with similar conditions to break out of a normal routine of self-doubt and try different things, explore ways to be successful themselves. The key here is to branch out and try something you might enjoy, without being trapped by fear. A Mile In His Shoes also includes a man who lost his son at ten years of age, and we see a little of how he handled the aftermath. But he floods the main character with the confidence he needs, and is right there to help him be successful, a mentor of import. The story also includes a father who saw his son similar to the way he saw himself, and learned to change his perceptions at the end. I believe this is a family friendly, quality movie that can be enjoyed by many.

This family sports drama was really good. Dean Cain, Luke Schroder, and the rest of the cast did a great job in this movie. This true story was pretty dramatic and inspirational. It's about being able to achieve an ultimate goal even if you're mentally challenged. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. It's worth seeing.

Very beautiful, film with special people, especially autistic people, especially attract me, a special film about a special team, all beautiful and delicate...

I like the movie but also the way that they portray Asperger's Syndrome, is so wrong. How do I know? Because I've been diagnosed with it since I was 11. We're not some sensitive child-like people, we are more like somewhat cold average person, with somewhat more logical brains. It's weird to see someone I would call my equal not be someone who could hold a proper conversation.

This story was certainly inspiring and touching. It starts with a coach (called "Murph", or Mr. Murphy) for a little league team with the worst name of all time, the River Rats, trying to find some real talented players for the already-started baseball season. His car gets stuck in a muddy ditch near a farm, where he comes across a really talented teen with a powerful throwing arm. It turns out the kid, named Mickey, is high-functioning autistic, being born with Asperger's Syndrome. This made his father super protective of him and, when first asked by Murph, was hesitant to allow his son to try out for the River Rats. But with enough convincing of his son's natural talent, the dad lets Mickey try out for the team. Of course, there are a lot of cheesy montage moments, but I'm glad the film didn't focus on Mickey's failures. He actually did a great job whenever he was on the pitcher's mound for a game. What the film did that I might not have liked was give us a villain, a jealous teammate who didn't like being sidelined while Mickey stole the spotlight. This helped to unite the team and support Mickey, but still, why did this story need a villain? Being autistic in a loud, demanding sport like baseball should have been the focus of the story itself, but there wasn't any real obstacle other than the jealous teammate. The other things I found a bit weird was Mickey's dad and (No spoilers!) the resolution of the entire rising action. For a story, you need a climax and a resolution, but for a realistic look on a boy with autism in our fast-paced world, everything seemed to work out perfectly in the end for a Disney-esque feel-good ending. And Mickey's dad was so overly critical and harsh, to the point of being such an obstacle in himself. But if he were to be the main obstacle, then fine. But why have an over-bearing father and a villain both be part of the rising action? Just choose one and expand on it. I was glad that the film included religion. If this was Disney, you know they'd shy away from it like it was a monster. But the film understood the importance and significance of religion in the lives of real people. For that, this film an its message certainly gives it a good rating on my part. If you want a clean, feel-good film about sports and an underdog, then watch this film. I was lucky enough to discover it on Netflix. I hope you guys can catch it there too before it gets removed in the future. If you are looking for a gritty, realistic story, then perhaps this story is not for you. But maybe the book is.
