Pros: plot, baseball, acting, heart-warming story
Cons: none
Field of Dreams came out back in 1989. It was directed by Phil Alden Robinson, who also wrote and directed the movie "Sneakers" in 1992, which stared Robert Redford, and Dan Akroyd. While he has not had very many films to his credit over the years, he ...

Pros: Easy to watch with a wonderful storyline.
Cons: It's not on more often.
There are a few movies that I can watch over and over and there are also a few movies that are broadcast on TV over and over that give me the opportunity to watch often. One of these films is Field of Dreams. It happens to be a very well written film ...

by Ed.Williamson - Top 200, May 31 '04
Pros: Old-time movie magic.
Cons: A premise perhaps a bit fuzzy, but still somehow appropriated.
It's hard to know what to like best about FIELD OF DREAMS (1989), but this is a great show to watch on a soft summer's evening when the worries of the world are far away and the weather forecast is for (to paraphrase a phrase from another Great Summer ...

by Joubert - Top 500, Oct 05 '00
Pros: Outstanding story and some very strong acting
Cons: Tiny flaw - a little too long at the conclusion
An old axiom states that every man has one great story in him about his relationship with his father. Field of Dreams is one such story, written by William Kinsella, who in the best tradition of Frank Capra, manages to gleefully wrap sentiment...

Pros: Cool effects, plot does keep you interested
Cons: Ending is not overly great due to poor character development, acting, and plot line
Often talked about as one of, if not the best, sports movies of all time, I finally got around to watching this film. Being the sports nut that I am, one would say, "What took you so long?" I wish I would have waited longer. This film disappointed me, ...

by BrianKoller - Top 50, Oct 16 '02
Pros: cast, cinematography, costumes, humor
Cons: baseball as allegory of Heaven, needless road trip
It has to be one of the most parodied lines in film history. "If you build it, he will come." The voice from the cornfields comes to Ray Kinsella (Kevin Costner), the everyman good guy farmer with a devoted leftist wife Anni (Amy Madigan) and a precious...

Pros: Some performances of the main cast, symbolism
Cons: Very slow moving film, character development with many minor characters
"Ray" (Kevin Costner) is an Iowan corn farmer who has regrets -- the biggest of which is fixing his relationship with his estranged father (Dwier Brown). One day, "Ray" is in his cornfield, with his wife (Amy Madigan) and daughter (Gaby Hoffmann, in ...

by silentrascal , Apr 26 '03
Pros: Fantastic story filled with genuine emotion and aided by great acting.
Cons: Not a one.
"Field of Dreams" is a very aptly named film. The ballfield is the very center of the movie, the very spot where various dreams do come true. It's definitely one of Kevin Costner's best films and of his baseball-based films, it's his best. It's more or...

Pros: Pure joy, delightful cast
Cons: no sequel
"Where did all these baseball players come from?" asks Ray Kinsella's cynical brother-in-law after one of the many miracles of this wonderful movie. And where did all these sports movie reviews come from, you may ask? This is the first annual...

by isinga - Top 1000, Apr 01 '01
Pros: Like milk, this movie has something for everybody.
Cons: Non-sports fans may be turned off by the baseball connection. A grave mistake.
I'm not a baseball fan. I got turned off to the sport in Junior High when I could never get picked during the choose-up. I could catch and I could throw, but I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with a snow shovel. My permanent position was in...

Pros: It brings out emotions you might not realize were there
Cons: the politics are kind of silly...the evil brother is kind of silly...some of the cliches are kind of silly
When I was fifteen and pitching in the local Babe Ruth League's all star game, my father had occasion to trudge slowly from the dugout to the pitcher's mound during a break in the action. Such occasion was due to the fact he happened to be the coach of...

Pros: It is an excellent movie
Cons: none
This is not your ordinary review of a movie...it is my interpretation of a movie. Field of Dreams! I would like to share an analogy with you. One of my favorite films is Field of Dreams. I would like to use this film as my analogy.

Pros: Wonderful story, good acting
Cons: 0
Kevin Costner's A Field of Dreams is a wonderful movie about desire and dreams. Costner plays Ray Kinsella, a Iowa farmer in the 60's who hears a voice and has a dream of building a baseball field in the middle of his corn field. "If you build it,...

Pros: heart-warming, Costner LOOKS good
Cons: cheesy, Costner's acting, cliches galore
I re-watched this movie the other night, and despite the fact that certain lines were so cliched that I wanted to groan out loud, I still found it to be a heart-warming film.
In other words, I am conflicted about how to rate "Field of...

by BlackBear - Top 500, Dec 17 '00
Pros: Teaches baseball history, great values and shows that dreams can come true
Cons: It's sad that it isn't a real story
Years ago, I started seeing all these weird TV commercials about a voice telling people to do strange things. I didn't understand what the referance was, but kept this to myself for fear of looking stupid. At last, I couldn't take it anymore and asked a...
