All Star Games - Detailed Review

Taking a Look At All Star Bingo
Another day, another Jumpman Gaming bingo website! Launched in the late summer of 2020, All Star Bingo’s generic name isn’t the only thing about it that’s paint by numbers.
But even too much déjà vu isn’t all bad when there is enough substance in terms of what the website offers as a compensation – and this one does have a lot to show for.
But, it comes with a very literal cost.
If you’re hoping for a visual fireworks and stunning special effects…
…we’ll stop you right in your tracks and say there’s nothing of the sort here: just a bland, ordinary “5 minute” template filled with content we’ve seen before – the main nav bar is conveniently positioned on the left which really comes to the fore on mobile devices.
The color scheme doesn’t indicate there is anything special going on here nor does the choice of graphics and fonts. The user experience/user interface is solid enough, but only because the lack of excitement makes the feel of the website so ordinary.
The website only accepts British pounds and has certain unfavorable restrictions both in terms of withdrawal limits and cashout times, which take a lot to be processes and even more to arrive to your account.
In terms of payment methods, All Star Bingo accepts Maestro, Visa, MasterCard, Paysafecard and several other e-Wallet options. The site pays close attention to its games’ integrity and safety of players, assisted by the Alderney and UKGC license.
The support team is reachable via multiple channels, including live chat and even Facebook messaging. Still, including a phone option too would have been nice.
Bingo Star Trek On Facebook
This operator has been extremely productive in recent years…
…dishing out websites at an uncanny rate. Traditionally we’ve been critical of this approach and this website just goes to prove that just maybe…we were right all along.
Because too much familiarity just fails to attract any new prospects or capture any leads and, in our, there is a bit of unfairness when it comes to certain terms that we will discuss now.
Goodies, Treats and Incentives
For sure, there is quite a lot in terms of promotions on All Star Bingo…
…including the gamified hunt for promotions that gives trophies for each task completed, which is always a great way to keep the players engaged.
All Star Tournaments Bingo
It all begins, however, with a first deposit offer consisting of your turn on the Wheel of Fortune, where you can win Amazon vouchers, extra spins or, if you’re truly unfortunate, nothing at all, which is too much of a gamble for something that should be a done deal.
Other promotions found at All Star include:
- Slot Giveaways each month with cool prizes for wagering on one of select slots picked by the casino management
- Extra spins of the month
- Birthday Bonus
- 31 days of double cashback for new players, ensuring newbies get their money worth for the full whole month of their stay
- Turbo reel with extra spins
- Happy Hours on Wednesday with a huge batch of extra spins for the taking
- Friday Fun with massive prize pool in bingo cash
It has to be noted that all deposit bonuses come with wagering requirements that are very difficult to meet, so do be on the alert. Read the general and specific T&C’s carefully!
Sizzling Hot Games
The gaming lobby at All Star Bingo…
…is stocked with all sorts of goodies, in a very diverse environment of games provided by multiple developers. The lobby uses a very usable filtering option for games search that separates them into several categories and genres.

Fringe Benefits
All Star Bingo Game
All Star Bingo’s VIP planis absolutely the same as on any other Jumpman Gaming website…
…in that it consists of five tiers: Member, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Black. Each level pays off nicely and awards player loyalty with daily cashbacks, extra spins, birthday goodies and more. The VIP Fast Track can launch the existing VIP players elsewhere to the corresponding level at this website.
All players can keep track of their VIP level from their My Account page.
Conclusion
All Star Bingo is your standard Jumpman Gaming bingo website that holds no surprises whatsoever.
With wagering requirements that are too high, we’d say to keep your bonus claiming to the minimum, unless you’re quite okay even with that. It’s all about whether you can accept certain terms and conditions, regardless of what we say – so if you feel All Star Bingo is all in, go for it!

Plot[edit]
Tired of being treated like a slave by team owner Sallison Potter, charismatic star pitcher Bingo Long steals a bunch of Negro league players away from their teams, including catcher/slugger Leon Carter and Charlie Snow, a player forever scheming to break into the segregated Major League Baseball of the 1930s by masquerading as first a Cuban ('Carlos Nevada'), then a Native American ('Chief Takahoma'). They take to the road, barnstorming through small Midwestern towns, playing the local teams to make ends meet. One of the opposing players, 'Esquire' Joe Calloway, is so good that they recruit him.
Bingo's team becomes so outlandishly entertaining and successful, it begins to cut into the attendance of the established Negro league teams. Finally, Bingo's nemesis Potter is forced to propose a winner-take-all game: if Bingo's team can beat a bunch of all-stars, it can join the league, but if it loses, the players will return to their old teams. Potter has two of his goons kidnap Leon prior to the game as insurance, but he escapes and is key to his side's victory.
As it turns out, there is a Major League scout in the audience. After the game, he offers Esquire Joe the chance to break the color barrier; with Bingo's blessing, he accepts. Leon glumly foresees the decline of the Negro leagues as more players follow Esquire Joe's lead, but Bingo, ever the optimist, cheers him up by describing the wild promotional stunts he intends to stage to bring in the paying customers.

Negro leagues tie-ins[edit]
Some characters and situations are loosely based upon real-life people and incidents. Badham grew up in Birmingham, Alabama, and was familiar with the Birmingham Black Barons, who shared Rickwood Field with the white Birmingham Barons.[2]
Bingo Long is based on former Black Baron Leroy 'Satchel' Paige. Early in his career, Paige would call in his outfield while leading in the ninth inning against an amateur or semi-pro team and strike out the side. Bingo did a similar stunt in this movie. Leon Carter is a Josh Gibson-like power hitter, even playing the same position (catcher). 'Esquire' Joe Calloway is an amalgam of another Black Baron, Willie Mays (in personality, talent, and fielding position) and Jackie Robinson (as being signed by a white team at the film's end).
The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings were loosely based on the Indianapolis Clowns and other barnstorming Negro baseball teams, who likewise engaged in Harlem Globetrotters-like clowning routines.
Production[edit]
Luther Williams Field in Macon, Georgia, was used for filming as the Negro leagues ballpark. Luther Williams Field was home to the Macon Music, a minor league team in the independent South Coast League. Additional ballpark scenes were shot at Morgan Field in Macon, a Pony and Colt League Youth Baseball field, Grayson Stadium in Savannah, Georgia, home of the Savannah Sand Gnats of the Class A South Atlantic League, and Wallace Field in Crawford County, Georgia. Exterior scenes set in St. Louis residential neighborhoods were also filmed in Savannah. Scenes set in rural communities were filmed in Talbotton, Georgia, and various small towns around Macon, including Monticello, Georgia. Some ballplayers were played by actual former athletes, including former members of the Indianapolis Clowns, who performed various stunts shown in the film.
Steven Spielberg originally wanted to have a hand in producing the movie until the success of his film Jaws got his full attention.[3]
Reception[edit]
The film received positive reviews, but several critics thought it could have been better. Roger Ebert wrote that 'Bingo Long' is fun, it's pleasant to watch, but it cakewalks too much on its way to the box office.'[4]Jay Cocks agreed in his Time magazine review, stating 'Although it never fulfills the richest possibilities in the raffish misadventures of a barnstorming black baseball team of the 1930s, it does come close from time to time.'[5] The movie holds an 87% 'Fresh' rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 15 critics.
Accolades[edit]
The film was nominated for the American Film Institute's 2008 AFI's 10 Top 10 in the sports film category.[6]
