"Mr. 3000" is a one joke movie taken to the extreme. Everyone gets the plot plan. He's selfish, he needs three hits to reach the 3000 hit plateau, and there is going to be friction with his team. Unfortunately that... Full review

Well this movie tried to make me laugh. That's an A for effort. And on a few occasions it really did. Hard. But the jokes share their screen time with a ridiculous amount of company logos and commercials. And THAT gets... Full review

Bernie Mac, once again has out done himself in Mr.3000 to prove he is a very talented, funny, enjoyable actor to watch. Without him in this movie, it would definetly not have been as good. The story is a bit far-fetched... Full review

Perhaps I could forgive some of this if Mr. 3000 wasn't a relentlessly dull movie.
Mr. 3000 tries to explain that Stan hasn't made it into the Hall after multiple attempts because the sports writers hate him.
Though it had some very strong moments

Lets just say Mr. 3000 is a good movie that just happens to be about a sport called baseball.
Mr. 3000 is a great look at the battle between selfishness and being a team player and what it means to do things for others.

Plot Summary: Funnyman Bernie Mac brings his irreverent comedy to the big screen to star in this hysterical movie about an over-the-hill ballplayer who gets his comeuppance after assuming that his Hall of Fame plaque is in the bag.
Stan Ross (Mac) once loved the game of baseball, playing with passion, energy, and every ounce of his natural talent.

There are several things that Mr. 3000 does well.
Mr. 3000 has a great conceit and a handful of memorable moments
Plenty of decent scripts are written from high concepts, but I think this one took the concept too literally.
