Overview
A chronicle of Babe Ruth's phenomenal story--from his hard knock beginnings at a Baltimore orphanage, to his meteoric rise to baseball superstardom and his poignant retirement from the game. His amazing career included seven American League pennants, four World Series championships, two tempestuous marriages and a wild lifestyle that earned him numerous suspensions.

Well, John Goodman turns The Babe into a clown, and one that isn't very well balanced. It's almost like he was playing two different characters, one with actual depth and one with the depth of a tea spoon and would switch back and forth without the two intersecting to form a complete whole.
And that is where the film really failed. You never get the sense that you are watching the same protagonist from one scene to the next.
It really could have been a decent flick (despite how far it veered from the actual legend) if the character was consistent.
