"Jews and Baseball: An American Love Story" not only lives up to its title -- how could it not? -- but also delivers a bit extra as well.

Aaron Cutler

RTSlant MagazineNov 7, 2010

The film feels simultaneously micromanaged and slapdash, spouting generalities about the game while neglecting to show a full at-bat.

Paul Brunick

RTNew York TimesNov 5, 2010

Were it not for a masterly production coup...this slight and unambitious work would be wholly indistinguishable from basic-cable filler.

Jews and Baseball: An American Love Story is a must-watch film for baseball fans. Much like the history of comedy, it’s the story of Jews in America.
