So, the Cleveland Indians have just lost their owner and his death has passed management onto his Vegas, Showgirl wife, who decides that the local climate is rather dour for her and promises to get the gate receipts sooooo low, that she can re-locate to Miami! To do this, she needs players, bad players, really bad players. Charlie Sheen (Wild Thing), a minor league convicted felon, Corbin Bernsen, a one time good player (bit of a girl now though), Tom Berenger, the nearly ran guy and Wesley Snipes, the fast talkin', fast runnin' bloke, all set out to prove the owner, the city and the press wrong and win the league!
It's also got the president from 24 in it (as a voodoo bloke)...awesome!
I always quite enjoyed this film. Silly, yes. Failure, no.
Budget: $11,000,000
Gross: $49,797,148
Fun Fact: This film spawned two sequels, all three films starring Corbin Bernsen and Dennis Haysbert (president 24 fella)...and yes, I've seen 'em all!
