Re: Fever Pitch: Chick flick?
You don’t have to be a Sox fan or even obsessed by baseball, but if you’re a New Englander like the Farrellys, you’ll get an extra charge from the game.
I've see Fever Pitch and posted a review of it on my website:

See the original British version (based on a novel by Nick Hornby) starring Colin Firth. It's really more of a "bloke flick". Last season's amazing Sox win makes total sense in the context of the story. I caught Fever Pitch on cable a couple of months ago before I knew there was an American remake in the works, and I thought, it's just like the Red Sox, only with soccer.

I heard that they had to change the ending of the movie..they never expected the Sox to win!!! Isn't that great!
Apparently, Jimmy Fallons character is a DIE HARD sox fan and when its time to make a choice between love and baseball, he probably finds that there is more to life than baseball after the sox lose. But, the sox didnt lose!
Its a chick flick/comedy but i'll definately see it. Anything to see the sox on the big screen.

Damn i've gotta see it opening night! Too bad it has Drew Barrymore in it, all she does is movies like this and they're never good. But that's definitely a must see.

1 edit | I am so not one for chick flicks, but this one I have to see!
»www.feverpitchmovie.com/
It's about a woman (Drew Barrymore) who has doubts about the guy she wants to marry ... because he's a huge Sox fan! Tons of scenes around Boston and at Fenway Park.
Watch the trailer ... it's good! |
