I usually get bored & despair of ‘God movies’. Not so in this case. The ‘God‘ aspect is rather fascinating and illuminating. I could never, ever, have that level or kind of faith & belief. It intrigues me to watch people like that. WOW.

What makes this SPECIAL is that you are told, from the start, that it is based on a TRUE STORY. I like inspirational movies based on REAL LIFE. This sure is that.

Inspirational & uplifting. Not hard to watch. I recommend it — without hesitation.

‘The Saint of Second Chances’ (2023) Documentary On ‘Netflix’ Is NOT A Baseball Story — BUT Heartwarming, HILARIOUS & Above All INSPIRATIONAL.

I am NOT 100% sure WHY I started watching it on ‘Netflix‘. Maybe it had to do with the pigs in the Netflix trailer. {SMILE} I also DID NOT watch it in one go. I kind of watched 20-minutes at a time to begin with, spread over two weeks, UNTIL I got hooked. I really liked it.

The last 1/3 of this documentary is about ‘Mike Veeck‘ & his daughter who got very sick. I won’t say anymore … because I don’t want to spoil it for YOU. Well, I can RELATE to that. That is what made this documentary SPECIAL in the END. It was inspirational. WOW. What a Dad!

If YOU are a Dad, watch it. We can all learn.

The baseball stuff is just an essential backdrop. You don’t have to LIKE or KNOW baseball to enjoy & savor this documentary.

Plus, it is HILARIOUS.

Yes, not for dingbats. But, if you are mature, you will find it rewarding.
