CGiii Comment

This film is a mere gimmick.

Good cinematography and a lousy script.

With plenty of shower scenes and willies galore - you would be forgiven in thinking that this is merely flaccid titillation...done to attract the gay audience and their pink dinero. And, it is.

No substance. No point.

The(ir) Blurb...

The actual members of the Hong Kong Baseball Team all prove themselves to be natural actors by playing themselves in this fictional youth drama set in 2004. In a city where baseball culture is non-existent, these baseball players are a minority by choice. The experience teaches them to be free-thinkers in dealing with love, friendship and their own sexuality. It also enables them to find the will to live in the face of death and the strength to conquer losing in a spectatorless sport.
