Reviews for White Men Can't Jump
This film unfolds in an uncommonly sweet, harmonious climate, one in which rude remarks are the sine qua non of friendship. And that benign atmosphere becomes a large part of its charm.
Basketball really isn't the central theme. It is really about relationships, loyalty and honesty, qualities in short supply among hustlers.
