Synopsis

Through rare archival footage and interviews, UECK chronicles the life and legacy of Bob Uecker, tracing his journey from journeyman catcher to Hall of Fame broadcaster, television star, and beloved American icon.

Moviegoers are saying

This heartfelt documentary about Milwaukee Brewers broadcaster Bob Uecker creates a deeply emotional experience that transforms viewers into honorary Milwaukeeans, with audiences particularly moved by the devastating final moments showing Ueck speechless after the 2024 Wild Card loss. While the film resonates powerfully with baseball fans and locals who see it as a masterclass in community storytelling, newcomers to Uecker's world find themselves either completely charmed or left wondering what the fuss is about.

i guess i can see why this would evoke major nostalgia for brewers fans, but my takeaway is that he’s just some guy with a good sports announcer voice

This biopic was phenomenal. It’s a wonderful blend of nostalgia, emotion, laughter, baseball, relationships and history. The local filmmakers poured their hearts and souls into this film and it shows. I saw the world premiere screening at the Milwaukee Film Festival.

I moved from California to the Milwaukee area almost six years ago. Making a move halfway across the country like that would always be jarring, but in the middle of a pandemic? While going through college? Needless to say it feels like I have been playing catch up for this…

A big, warm-hearted documentary about Mr. Baseball that is as colorful as his jackets. His quick wit, gregarious personality, and love of Milwaukee and its Brewers shines through in every frame, but the moment that got me the most was a heartbreaking long shot of Ueck…
