A talking baseball and a talking bat might not be the most likely characters to inspire a personal revelation about perseverance and self-esteem, but in Everyone's Hero it's just those two things that help young Yankee Irving (Jake T. Austin) overcome his reputation as a baseball loser and become a true American hero. A ten-year old spurned by the neighborhood kids because of his repeated strike-outs at bat, Yankee is at a point of personal crisis. A chance encounter with a talking foul ball named Screwie (Rob Reiner) and some time spent with his father (Mandy Patinkin), who's a janitor for the New York Yankees, gives Yankee cause for some serious reflection. When Babe Ruth's famous bat "Darlin'" (Whoopi Goldberg) is stolen by opposing teammate Lefty Maginnis (William H. Macy) and Yankee's father is fired as a result of the theft, it suddenly falls to Yankee and his new friend Screwie to find Darlin' and return her to Babe Ruth before the Chicago Cubs loose the final game of the World Series to the New York Yankees. The combined efforts of Screwie, Darlin', and new friend Marti Brewster (Raven-Symoné) aid Yankee in conquering his own self-doubt and infuse him with the self-confidence and strength to profoundly affect both his family and the entire baseball world. Produced by Christopher Reeve, this CGI animated presentation features a great cast of characters and voice talent, and an important message about the power of perseverance.

Connie H (New York)
Unfortunately this DVD was defective and unwatchable and I had to get my $$ back.Thus being the reason for only 3 stars.
The seller was very quick to apologize and made good immediatly.It will NOT keep me from purchasing from them again.It is just one of those things.The biggest disappointment was when the grandchildren & I sat down to watch and were unable to do so.
Having seen the movie on TV before getting the DVD,I can say that it was a very nice movie to watch with young children.
 Love it! December 2, 2009

H. Tucker (Knee-deep in toys, USA)
Our family LOVES this movie! It's got a great story line, Yankee Irving (the little boy) is adorable and so loveable, the bat and ball are hilarious, and the story line teaches perseverance and believing in your dreams. This was the first movie my 2 year old actually sat through. We've watched it numerous times since purchasing it and it will be in our family's movie collection for a long time.
