Echoes of Norman Rockwell bounce off The Hill, a sincere, inspiring baseball movie grounded in a complicated father-son relationship.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 26, 2023

When it's not wrestling (however nicely) with spiritual matters, "The Hill" is a well-meaning but dutiful trudge toward an ordained destination.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 25, 2023

While the movie has its cliches and missteps... that central generational struggle is as old as the Bible (and “The Jazz Singer”) and still dramatically compelling.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 25, 2023

While director/screenwriter Jeff Celentano's heart and soul is firmly in the right place, his faith-based drama suffers from being too long and repetitive and sidelines the subject's transition later in life.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 24, 2023

Corny but uplifting.

It is a cinematic case of confirmation bias, designed to fulfill preexisting values and beliefs.
