Houston Astros: Eight thoughts on the World Series movie

#5 Game 5 – Great Drama, But Quick Flash

On a normal basis, Game 5 would be at least a 30-minute segment much like the opening of Saving Private Ryan. But because the film is ninety minutes, most of it cut down. You do see the homers hit in the game and the Astros players talking about how crazy it was. At times, you wish they could slow it down. But then again, we all felt like we wish that game could slow down the way it was going. We needed to process what we were seeing. Don’t be too offended if not much is explained. The film is ninety minutes long although we wish it would be two-and-a-half hours.

#6 Yes! There are Celebrities!

There will be celebrities for the Dodgers. I won’t name them, but there are celebrities. Okay! I’ll give you one name. Look at the picture above.

#7 George Springer is the Star

Of all the Astros featured, George Springer appears to be the top billing. We all know why! He was the World Series MVP!

#8 Spoiler Alert: We Know How It Ends

Even though Game 7 was not as dramatic as the others in the World Series, the film depicts a magical feel with the music being played. Even when the last out is recorded from Altuve to Gurriel on a pitch by Charlie Morton, you can’t help but feel emotional again. You still can’t believe that it happened.

From the marriage proposal of Carlos Correa to the parade in Houston, it’s a moment you won’t want to remember.
