The opening scene of Not Out has the distinct look of an amateur sports broadcast. We see the big field, and we see the happy winning team. Yet writer/director
Lee Jung-gon instead has the bulk of the runtime take place off the field after the victory, as we see young shot Gwang-ho (played by
Jung Jae-gwang) make a risky decision on impulse and then struggle with the reality that he may not, in fact, play professional baseball as he always dreamed.
The dark foreboding tone of Not Out has a lot in common with Baseball Girl from last year. Both movies have a traditionally light-hearted and positive feel-good premise where deficiencies in going professional are typically depicted as due to a lack of effort. Yet the actual tonal focus in both films is on how dumb luck and petty interpersonal drama are considerably more important to success in this field than the canned fairy tales we re told as children would have us believe.
