12-year-old Yankee Irving’s greatest passion is baseball, just like his father, who works at Yankee Stadium. But when Babe Ruth’s bat is stolen on Mr. Irving’s watch, he is unceremoniously fired. Now, it’s up to Yankee to track down the bat and return it to Babe so that he can clear his dad’s name.

What are critics saying?

Seattle Post-Intelligencer by

Grown-ups, depending on how in touch they are with their inner child, will be split during most of this, inspired to either smile or roll their eyes.

L.A. Weekly by Ella Taylor

The movie's antique Rockwellian look is its greatest pleasure.

The New York Times by Jeannette Catsoulis

Everyone's Hero enters multiplexes already shadowed by tragedy. And while that may not be the best start for a kiddie feature, the movie's sentimental provenance could earn it a critical pass it doesn't deserve.

Los Angeles Times by John Anderson

Subtle it is not. Well-intentioned it certainly is. No one but the youngest in the family will care very much about it, though. And they may well be filled with wonderment trying to figure out what this big Babe person is all about.

The Hollywood Reporter by Kirk Honeycutt

A tweener but not necessarily a good one. It falls into the gap between good intentions and faulty storytelling.

Chicago Tribune by Michael Wilmington

Probably the last movie to carry a credit for the late Christopher Reeve--as well as the last credit for Reeve's late wife, Dana.

USA Today by Staff [Not Credited]

A sweet, inspirational movie that doesn't offer any surprises, but entertains youthful audiences in a gentle, almost old-fashioned way.

The A.V. Club by Tasha Robinson

It's a shallow, treacly movie for children too little to question its many pointless puerilities. But do kids that young really belong in a theater? Keep 'em at home and wait for this to hit cable.
