Reviews

Despite an all-star cast, 'Summer Catch' falls short of its potential. Critics from various platforms have pointed out the lackluster storyline and cliched romantic elements. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a disappointing 8%, with reviews expressing disappointment in the predictable plot and lack of depth in character development. Metacritic rated it at 21/100, attributing the low score to the formulaic nature of the film. IMDb users gave it a slightly better 5.1/10 rating, acknowledging the movie's charm and enjoyable baseball scenes. However, overall consensus suggests that 'Summer Catch' struggles to hit a home run with critics and audiences alike.
