Movie Reviews

A must have for any Mets' fan...

M. V. Marinello | New York | 07/15/2008

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Simply put, it is a must have for any New York Mets fan. While I wish there was more drama and build up to some of the excerpts - Todd Pratt's walk-off homerun against the Diamondbacks as an example - I couldn't be more pleased with the purchase. It will be something I can use to look back on the past and remember with fondness, as well as something to get me through the rough times when the present isn't going so well..."
