Dressed in drag, Jamal calls himself Juwanna Mann and becomes a star player on a women's basketball team, helping them climb the ranks.

      Audience Reviews for Juwanna Mann

      • Nov 03, 2010
        Miguel A. Nunez plays Jamal Jeffries, a NBA bad boy whose court antics are so outrageous; he gets booted out the league so he decides to dress as a woman and join the WNBA. To his surprise, he makes it but ends up starting to fall for his teammate, Michelle (played by Vivica A. Fox.) The rest of the movie is hilarious fun. Miguel A. Nunez JR. does great as Jamal Jeffries/Juwanna Mann and does a brilliant job of imitating a woman. The movie is kind of predictable though but it has some funny moments and some cute parts.

        This movie was funny, but really had no point at all. Just a silly movie for when you wanna laugh I guess.

        Hilarious! Miguel A. Nunez Jr. is fantastic. This movie leaves you laughing hard. Ginuwine does a guest appearance, a pretty interesting role.
