While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
This movie strips the reality of it all back at just the right amount as to not spoil the plot too much but still strike enough of a chord if you've got any personal connection to the game, fantastic watch and very moving
Pretty good throughout the movie until the last 20-30 min. Kind of hokey after that.
This may be a fictional movie, but it certainly seems like it could be a documentary. It certainly encapsulates what high school basketball has become, especially at top-level "schools".
Underrated. Very well captures the true state of corruption in basketball. Very good acting. Absolutely loved this movie
