Reviews

  • "[IT AIN'T OVER] has two purposes and succeeds delightfully at both. One is to make some sense of the famously self-nullifying sayings... The film’s other purpose is to re-establish Berra’s standing in baseball history."
    - Wall Street Journal
  • "Serving as a potent reminder of the stellar athletic ability that, in time, had been overshadowed by his admittedly outsized personality, the affectionate IT AIN'T OVER offers a winning coda to the career assessment of the late, great Yogi Berra."
    - Los Angeles Times
  • "The Berra family tells the stories with familiarity and affection, often laughing or crying: this is well-trod ground, tall tales, the narrative of their family."
    - RogerEbert.com
  • "A lively, engaging and moving documentary..."
    - New York Times
