Spectacular January 20, 2008
This is undeniably the greatest golf movie ever. The story is fantastic, involving the great depression, Bobby Jones and a war hero(played exceptionally by Matt Damon). However, the best part of this spectacular film is the acting. I love Will Smith as Bagger Vance, and with Matt Damon as the main protagonist and Charlize Theron as Ms. Idelle Envagordon, you simply cannot lose. If you love golf and movies, see this one.

A deeper understanding December 14, 2007
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Before I saw this DVD I never had a full understanding of the role within the Trinity played by the Holy Spirit; I knew He was a comforter to us in times of need but did not see His importance. For the rest of my life I will now see Him as a gentle helper much like Bagger Vance in this story. Will Smith plays the role of his career in this movie with the splendid assistance of Matt Damon and Jack Lemmon, playing a man about my age, adds a wonderful ending to the story. This is a typical movie that Robert Redford continually provides for our enjoyment in that, after seeing it, you will be a little enriched by the experience.

More than Golf , A lot more! October 11, 2007
Recently my family and I were together and discussing our top 10 favorite movies of all time. When I told them The Legend of Bagger Vance was one of mine, they couldn't believe it and exclaimed "That's a golf movie isn't it? You don't even play golf! I told them its about golf like Gone with the Wind is about the Civil War. It's a backdrop, but not the heart of the movie. Aside from having a beautiful soundtrack, the feel good aspects of this movie are outstanding. I have watched this at least 10 times and I get misty eyed every time at the end; not from sadness but from sheer joy and the goodness and optimism this movie shows. Rating this movie at all is difficult, but if I must, I give 5 of the biggest stars I can find. The interview with Redford is also excellent.

Another Excellent Fantasy-Sports Film September 17, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I usually like fantasy movies and I really enjoy sports films. Combine the two well - like "Field Of Dreams" and like this movie - and I am sure to rate this extremely high. I've seen it three times and enjoyed it immensely each time.

It reminded me a bit, too, of "The Natural," but instead of baseball, this one features golf and real-life legends Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen playing the local guy, "Rannulph Junuh" (Matt Damon). Like "The Natural," this is beautifully photographed, has a wonderful feel-good ending, a variety of characters, a beautiful lead woman and good acting.

The no-name child actor in here, J. Michael Moncrief, who plays "Hardy Greaves," narrates the film as an older man looking back on this story. The kid is a fine actor, too, and I really enjoyed his Georgia accent. Charlize Theron is the beauty, playing "Adele Invergordon," a woman who organizes this famous golf match between the greatest amateur player of the world, the best professional and "Junuh," who is the focus of this story. Theron's known for her dramatic roles but she exhibits a nice comedy touch in here.

Damon does his normal fine job of acting and Will Smith, as the angelic caddie "Bagger Vance," is uncharacteristically low-key, which I found nice to see. Bruce McGill did a good as Hagen and Joel Gretsch, likewise, for Jones. McGill is obviously the best real-life golfer here among these actors. Damon had to learn the game from scratch, and did a fine job with his swing.
