great movie!!! I've seen this movie before and I wanted to get it so much. It's about some baseball history with Kevin Costner building a Baseball stadium behind his home!
I ordered this movie for some troops in Iraq, I am with the organization www.soldiersangels.org and received a request to help with building them a baseball field. So I felt that this movie was the perfect one for them to watch. "Build it and they will come."
You can find everything you ever need at E-Bay! I needed a copy of this movie, and had a hard time finding it around town. I knew an E-Bayer would have it, so I typed it into the search box and of course, there it was, and quite reasonable too! It came in perfect condition and was just what I needed! I look at E-Bay before looking in stores because most of the time I'll find it on site! Cudos to my seller for their instant shipping and great handling of the whole deal and also to PAYPAL for making this and all my purchases worry-free and smooth as silk! Thanks E-Bay!
A movie for all to see... My grandkids love to watch it with me during a sleep over..... Costner along with the other good actors, what more could you ask for. It is a "classic" and I had to have it to add to my collection.

Field of Dreams : A great baseball movie with Kevin Costner
Review created: 05/18/01
by: three_ster-- a member of Epinions and Top Reviewer in Movies
Pros: plot, baseball, acting, heart-warming story
Cons: none
Field of Dreams came out back in 1989. It was directed by Phil Alden Robinson, who also wrote and directed the movie "Sneakers" in 1992, which stared Robert Redford, and Dan Akroyd. While he has not had very many films to his credit over the years, he is one of those Directors that excels at every film that he is involved in. Field of Dreams was nominated for 3 academy awards in 1990, which included Best Picture, and best writing. Though the film did not pull out a victory, it just goes to show how good this film really was. The movie stars Kevin Costner, as a farmer living in Iowa who hears..

Field of Dreams; Is This Heaven? No, It's Iowa
Review created: 06/29/05

Pros: Easy to watch with a wonderful storyline.
Cons: It's not on more often.
There are a few movies that I can watch over and over and there are also a few movies that are broadcast on TV over and over that give me the opportunity to watch often. One of these films is Field of Dreams. It happens to be a very well written film that has drama, humor, a heartwarming story and more than a touch of magic. This combined with Kevin Costner at his acting best and the support of two of Americas great actors in James Earl Jones and Burt Lancaster continues to make this a film that draws my complete interest whenever it is on. It's a funny thing, I own it on VHS but many times...

FIELD OF DREAMS: Great Summer Movies, No. 1
Review created: 05/31/04
by: Ed.Williamson -- a member of Epinions
Pros: Old-time movie magic.
Cons: A premise perhaps a bit fuzzy, but still somehow appropriated.
It's hard to know what to like best about FIELD OF DREAMS (1989), but this is a great show to watch on a soft summer's evening when the worries of the world are far away and the weather forecast is for (to paraphrase a phrase from another Great Summer Movie , Doc Hollywood ) "soft breezes through the willows and watch out for the lightning bugs." Of course, it is really a guy s movie, a sort of testosterone-lite film. This is also a movie, after movies about watching the world turn into a giant snowball (The Day After Tomorrow), after being let down by Shrek 2 (Shrek 2), or after sleeping...

Were It Only A Field Of Reality
Review created: 10/05/00
by: Joubert -- a member of Epinions
Pros: Outstanding story and some very strong acting
Cons: Tiny flaw - a little too long at the conclusion
An old axiom states that every man has one great story in him about his relationship with his father. Field of Dreams is one such story, written by William Kinsella, who in the best tradition of Frank Capra, manages to gleefully wrap sentiment around his tale without overdoing the emotion. Our home has a ritual that compels us to watch Field of Dreams every spring. That s a time when the movie s main element, baseball, is bursting forth into our consciousness again. Spring warming encourages us to look at the greenery around us and marvel in the rebirth. The Message: What The Film Means To Me.

Field of Freudian Dreams
Review created: 03/19/00
by: buffoonery -- a member of Epinions
Pros: Nice baseball scenes and Costner is likeable
Cons: Amy Madigan, leftist politics
This is a mostly inoffensive star vehicle about an Iowa farmer/60's drop-out played by the likeable Kevin Costner who, like many of that generation, is bothered by voices in his head. In Kevin's case, the voices inspire him to build a baseball field on his cornfield. Sure enough, after construction is completed, Shoeless Joe Jackson shows up and quicker than the phrase "suspended for life" springs to mind, the rest of the Black Sox make their appearances on the diamond. Not satisfied with raising ballplayers from the dead, Kevin trucks off to Boston to seek J.D. Salinger (in the movie, under..
