	Author	Review
United States	Colin Covert Minneapolis Star Tribune	"'Trouble With the Curve' is an absolute home run, the total package of charming romantic comedy, poignant family drama and superb acting (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Peter Hartlaub SFGATE	"'Trouble' is second-rate Eastwood, existing in a parallel universe where the celebrity has been reduced to a Hallmark movie-of-the-week actor, not one of the most respected directors in Hollywood"	NEG

United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"'Trouble With the Curve' Plays Like A Lifetime TV Movie. Eastwood baseball flick tugs at the heartstrings a little too hard."	NEG
