Only One Kurt Russell Movie Has A Perfect Score On Rotten Tomatoes
By SANDY SCHAEFER
Kurt Russell has appeared in many iconic films throughout his career; however, only one has received a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes, "The Battered Bastards of Baseball."
The 2014 documentary, directed by the actor’s nephews Chapman and Maclain Way, explores the true story of the baseball team owned by Russell’s father, Portland Mavericks.
The team was the only independent American baseball team in the '70s. It operated without a Major League affiliation under Bing Russell's ownership.
Russell himself actually played for the Mavericks and served as a vice president, so he naturally ends up having a significant presence in the film.
Critics have agreed that "The Battered Bastards of Baseball" is a fantastic movie, even for those who aren’t sports fans.
