Beer League is a 2006 American comedy film directed by Frank Sebastiano and featuring Artie Lange in the lead role. It also stars Ralph Macchio and Anthony DeSando in supporting roles. The story follows the antics of a group of misfits who form a softball team called the Eds. The team plays in a local softball league and is known for its rowdy behavior both on and off the field. Lange plays the lead character, Artie, whose life revolves around drinking, partying, and playing softball.

As the team's captain, Artie tries to motivate his teammates to win the beer league championship. He faces myriad challenges along the way, including opposition from his fellow players, conflicts with the opposing teams, and even a romantic rivalry with a local bartender. All of these conflicts culminate in a thrilling final game, where the Eds must face their biggest rival, a team led by Macchio's character.

The movie is a raucous comedy that will appeal to anyone who has ever played in an amateur sports league. It takes a lighthearted look at the world of adult softball and the antics that often accompany it. The film is filled with plenty of crude humor, innuendos, and off-color jokes that will keep viewers laughing from start to finish.

Alongside the comedy, the film also portrays a deeper theme of friendship and loyalty. The Eds may be a ragtag group of misfits, but they stick together through thick and thin. Their bond is tested at times but ultimately proves unbreakable, providing a heartwarming ending to the film.

One standout performance in the movie is that of Artie Lange, who brings his characteristic crass humor and larger-than-life persona to the character of Artie. Lange's natural comedic timing and ability to improvise add a genuine quality to the movie, making it all the more enjoyable.

Ralph Macchio also delivers a memorable performance as the boisterous captain of an opposing team. His portrayal of a cocky, overly competitive athlete is spot-on and provides a perfect foil for Lange's more laid-back character.

In addition to Lange and Macchio, the supporting cast of Beer League is also noteworthy. Anthony DeSando shines as Maz, Artie's best friend and fellow teammate. Equally impressive is Cara Buono, who plays Linda Salvatore, the bartender who becomes a romantic interest for both Artie and Macchio's characters.

Overall, Beer League is a fun, light-hearted comedy that will appeal to fans of sports movies and crude humor. Although it has been almost 15 years since its release, the film still holds up today thanks to its timeless humor and relatable characters.

Beer League is a 2006 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 26 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.9 and a MetaScore of 40.
