Story Synopsis:
The Sandlot is a heartwarming family comedy about a neighborhood gang of good-natured young boys who love baseball. The new kid on the block, Scotty Smalls (Tom Guiry) who doesn’t have a friend in the world gets befriended by the gang’s young hero, Benny “The Jet” Rodriguez (Mike Vitar). Scotty soon makes new friends and finds himself playing baseball as well as the rest of the kids on the neighborhood sandlot. When a priceless Babe Ruth-autographed baseball falls into the clutches of the terrible beast behind the left field fence, the adventure begins as they try to retrieve the ball. The Sandlot is a terrific fun movie that will bring a nostalgic smile to anyone who remembers the joys of summer as a kid.
LaserDisc Picture:
The 2.33:1 images in this film are wonderful with lots of color and natural charm.. Picture quality is sharp and flesh tones are accurate with no trace of artifacts.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The soundtrack is superb with super enveloping surrounds and well defined stereo separation. Screen and surround bass response is well extended as well.
