Trou story

Gus Lobel is a legendary baseball scout, but his aging body is starting to fail him. His daughter, Mickey, who has a strained relationship with him and works as a lawyer, decides to join him on a scouting trip to North Carolina to evaluate a promising young player. During the trip, they confront their past issues and also encounter a former player who Gus helped discover.

Trouble with the Curve received mixed reviews from critics. While Clint Eastwood's performance was praised, many found the film to be predictable and somewhat formulaic in its storytelling, relying heavily on familiar sports drama tropes.

• Clint Eastwood delivers a solid performance as a seasoned baseball scout on his last leg.

• Amy Adams and Justin Timberlake provide decent supporting performances, but the film's plot is predictable.

• The movie struggles to offer a fresh perspective on baseball scouting and father-daughter relationships.

Google audience: Audience reviews suggest that while the film is watchable thanks to the cast, particularly Eastwood, it doesn't offer much in the way of originality and feels like a standard sports drama.

This film marked the first time Clint Eastwood starred in a movie not directed by himself since 1985's "Pale Rider."
