Working a bit too hard to send the crowd into a frenzy, the action in this basketball-oriented yarn isn't exactly fantastic, but it is mildly entertaining.

Top CriticGive or take the odd spot of predictable arrogance, however, it's a good-humoured, good-hearted film.

Entirely predictable basketball comedy. Bacon gives better than the flick really deserves.
