Church Ball Ratings & Reviews
TheIndependentCritic.com
Richard Propes
Hale borrows from nearly every other irreverent sports film ever made.
New Times
Luke Y. Thompson
Hale's directorial style relies way too much on the kind of cheesy music video montages that have long since been parodied to death, and the religious rock songs used are truly awful.
Seattle Times
Ted Fry
... a carefree, underdog sports comedy.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
William Arnold
Its rowdiness, bathroom humor, cast of familiar but second-rate actors and overall disrespect for organized religion make it seem like any other bad Hollywood farce.
Arizona Republic
Richard Nilsen
Jokes fall flat, characterizations are sketchy at best, setups never receive their payoff, unnecessary subplots slow the already glacial pace.
Arizona Daily Star
Phil Villarreal
Air ball . . . Air ball . . .
Reno Gazette-Journal
Forrest Hartman
Recreational basketball leagues offer plenty to laugh at and screenwriter Paul Eagleston mined that material, but not as deeply as he needed to.

Eric D. Snider
Will non-Mormons start noticing HaleStorm's productions? I wouldn't bet the tithing money on it yet, but they're heading in the right direction.
Tooele Transcript-Bulletin (Utah)
Audrey Rock-Richardson
It commands more attention than previous efforts because of a wonderfully eclectic cast.
Spectrum (St. George, Utah)
Bruce Bennett
Despite the presence of funnyman Fred Willard, stays mostly on the pre-teen comedy level, obscuring an underlying moral about unity and reaching out to the disregarded
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Jeff Vice
Relies heavily on dumb slapstick, including a few tasteless, low-brow moments.
Salt Lake Tribune
Sean P. Means
Like Kurt Hale's previous Mormon comedies..., Church Ball envelops the viewer in the embrace of the familiar.
