Rated 5.0/5 Stars 1 2 3 4 5 hobbit_at_heart 10:37 AM		Our world is filled with meaningless, raunchy movies. Almost every week we see yet another one top the box office. Yet once in a while we find a movie that has meaning; a message. I was on the comittee for "The Perfect Game", and had the privlege of seeing it beforehand. I expected to see a cute little Cinderella-type movie and then forget it the next day. By the end of the movie, I had laughed, cried, cheered, and everyting in between! It made me think as most movies rarely do. The story was so amazing that I couldn't help but clap at the end. All the actors were extremely well-cast, but Jake t. Austin, Moises Arias and Ryan Ochoa clearly stole the show! I was also excited to hear that The Perfect Game will be hitting theaters in Spring 2010! This is definitely one that the world should see. I now officially have a second favorite movie, and it's called The Perfect Game!
