4 stars out of 5 -- [A] very funny underdog comedy that’s genuinely heartwarming and full of charm.

A cold, hard business story, reshaped by Disney into a warm, fuzzy hug.

Rating: C+ --
It's just hard to root for [Jon Hamm's character], which in turn makes it hard to root for "Million Dollar Arm."

There's nothing wildly unpredictable on offer here, but it still winningly manages to sneak its way past your defences.

Rating: 3/5 --
In its own gently comical way, Million Dollar Arm plays up the misunderstandings between Hollywood and India -- as well as the mutual fascination.

Viewers won't be all that surprised by the big moments in Million Dollar Arm, but they will be charmed by its small moments (be on the lookout for Amit's coaching debut).

Million Dollar Arm makes us want to spend time with its people, and while the movie is successful in many other respects as well, this is its biggest and best victory.

Product Description:
Craig Gillespie's drama MILLION DOLLAR ARM stars Jon Hamm as JB Bernstein, a one-time successful sports agent who left the massive company he worked for to start in his own agency, Seven Figures Management, with his business partner Aash (Aasif Mandvi). The company is in serious financial straits, and they lose the big client they've been grooming. In a fit of inspiration, JB believes they can go to India, find a cricket bowler, and teach him to be a baseball pitcher. In order to pay for the scheme, he convinces wealthy businessman Chang (Tzi Ma) to create a reality show titled "Million Dollar Arm" to help with his quest for fresh talent. Upon arriving in India, he is quickly befriended by Amit (Pitobash), an overly eager man who loves baseball and wants to do anything he can to help. JB also brings in retired scout Ray (Alan Arkin) to help him weed through the thousands of candidates who try to whip a baseball over 90 mph. Although at first the going is rough, they eventually find a pair of eager and promising prospects -- Dinesh (Madhur Mittal) and Rinku (Suraj Sharma). The duo travel back to the States with JB where they are then tutored by Tom House (Bill Paxton), a USC baseball coach whose approach to the game is as much mental as physical. The two young men are finally given a highly publicized tryout in front of scouts from numerous pro teams, as well as media from around the world. Meanwhile, the fiercely single JB, whose personal life involves dating a string of models, begins to strike up something of a serious romance with his tenant, Brenda (Lake Bell), a doctor who rents the guest house on JB's beautiful L.A. estate.
