Synopsis: 

Growing up impoverished in small-town Texas, young Rickey Hill shows an extraordinary ability for hitting a baseball, despite being burdened by leg braces from a degenerative spinal disease. His stern, pastor father (DENNIS QUAID) discourages Rickey from playing baseball to protect him from injury, and to have him follow in his footsteps and become a preacher. As a young man, Rickey (COLIN FORD) becomes a baseball phenomenon. His desire to participate in a try-out for a legendary major league scout divides the family and threatens Rickey’s dream of playing professional baseball. Based on a true story, THE HILL is directed by Jeff Celentano and also stars JOELLE CARTER, country music singer and songwriter RANDY HOUSER, Golden Globe nominee BONNIE BEDELIA, and SCOTT GLENN.

My Review:

I loved watching The Hill with my family. I have always loved movies starring Dennis Quaid and this one is no different. I found Rickey's story to be inspiring and I admired his determination and courage. It is a film that tugged at my heart and at times brought me to tears. I loved watching every single minute of it to see how it all ended for him.

I am giving The Hill a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for viewers who enjoy watching drama filled but inspiring movies based on true events. I believe it would make a great addition for a movie night for families of all ages, especially for those with baseball fans.

I received an early screener link to view The Hill, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
