Chapman and Maclain Way’s energetic telling of one of baseball’s great, unheralded stories is as much about independent spirit as it is about the game. When Portland, Oregon, lost its longtime minor-league affiliate, Bing Russell—who briefly played ball professionally before enjoying a successful Hollywood acting career—bought the territory and formed a single-A team to operate outside the confines of major-league baseball. When they took the field in 1973, the Mavericks—the only independent team in America—started with two strikes against them. What did Deputy Clem from Bonanza know about baseball? Or Portland, for that matter? The only thing uniting his players, recruited at open tryouts, was that no other team wanted them. Skeptics agreed that it could never work.
But Bing understood a ballplayer’s dreams, and he understood an audience. His quirky, unkempt castoffs won games, and they won fans, shattering minor-league attendance records. Their spirit was contagious, and during their short reign, the Mavericks—a restaurant owner turned manager, left-handed catcher, and blackballed pitcher among them—brought independence back to baseball and embodied what it was all about: the love of the game.

一大家子人互相包礼物，拆礼物也是real温馨了，其实个人觉得这种小仪式感还是要有的，哪怕只是一块小黑板，一句吐槽的话，也够温暖整个冬季。
两人真的毫无cp感可言…男主摇头晃脑的浮夸表演简直神烦
好像发生在小镇的故事都更有圣诞氛围，片子不怎么样，圣诞看个热闹吧。
老套的圣诞爱情故事，Nick我真的好想占有他，太完美了
好喜欢这种合家欢的圣诞电影！落入俗套我也喜欢！ 什么时候我爸妈也会在除夕催我找男朋友啊 我会立马去找
非常gay 也蠻溫馨的，演員們都很好看但可能太閤家觀賞了? 感覺彼此間都不大來電?
有点无聊，就像圣诞节一样。不过也挺好的，就像圣诞节一样。
这部装模作样的圣诞电影让我非常不舒服。所有人的演技全部下线。剧情非常无脑。也非常不真诚，感觉是一个直女想象出来的男男cp故事。txl才不会因为怕失去朋友不谈恋爱呢。
Cliché as hell but so sweet and gay!
这一家人都很可爱啊
It's so tacky, but Christmas supposed to be tacky, isn't
感觉想想做成去年拉拉圣诞片《最幸福的季节》的gay版，然而故事真的差好多，无聊，也没什么笑料和冲突，仅仅是做到了合家欢而已。
老套温馨的小品电影。在进入疫情的第三年，喝着酒看一部这样的浪漫电影，大概能开心好几天
好俗爛的劇情但是好可愛好溫暖喔 ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ
还算可以叭 轻松愉快小甜饼 两个男主挺可爱的 看得俺嘴角上扬就没下来过hhhh
后记
本来对一部圣诞电影不应该有太高的要求，但是很多桥段还是俗套到让人无语，况且去年已经有两部圣诞同影有着几乎完全一样的故事线，《圣诞速配》至少还有这比这部更加深层次挽救圣诞传统的故事线，而这部就直接变成家庭催婚记了，还在演员们表演都还挺不错，喜剧效果也都有了
211208@ pianku 营造了欢乐祥和的圣诞氛围？
圣诞爆米花电影，老套的朋友变爱人的剧情，但是圣诞节就不是要看这种cliche，全员无恶人的温情电影吗？ Peter还是那么可爱，里面还有sophie 客串。客观的讲整体一般吧，适合圣诞节应景看。2021.12.28 on line
就当个乐子，挺喜庆的。
