I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
... View MoreThe movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
... View MoreThis movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

... View MoreWhere does one start to describe this movie? It takes place in a small northern Michigan town during the winter - basketball season. But as one reviewer said, it is NOT a basketball movie. It's a story about 4 buddies who come of age and where right versus wrong, good versus evil, etc. A little too predictable. Some of the camera work was very good. However, the story was weak. I felt it lacked continuity and believability. It just seemed too forced to try to get the storyline across in short periods of time. I think the producer should have inquired from someone who was not associated with the film prior to it's release to be sure the unknowing public would understand it because i found it confusing at times. The acting was poor as well. It was obvious and stereo-typical. The fat kid who can't make the team is always the jokester drawing attention to himself. The quiet kid is the one who faces the dilemma, etc. etc. Kudos for moments of beautiful cinematography, but thumbs down to the project over all. It was just cheesy. Save two hours and watch Stand By Me or the Goonies.
... View MoreI'm still angry for wasting 2 hours of my life watching this religious crap.It has nothing to do with basketball. It's incredibly boring. The actors and the director don't know what they're doing. I guess it could be appreciated only by Christian fanatics who believe that organ donation it's wrong (instead of saving another life you should pray pray pray!) This "thing" should be removed from any basketball movie list (that's how I found it) to save people from wasting their time.Oh, I forgot..keep on praying!
... View MoreI was a bit skeptical about watching this movie, but i must say i was pleasantly surprised. It turned out to be a very touching movie.Despite it being low-budget, the actors are all surprisingly believable and some of the performances are even Oscar-worthy if you ask me. This movie will make you cry sad AND happy tears, and is a movie i believe anyone should be able to enjoy.As for the religious part, it really doesn't matter if you are a Muslim,Christian or a non-believer, because the moral aspect of it applies to everyone. Enjoy.
... View MoreThis is the first time ever writing any kind of review, for anything, and I'll be very brief. This film clearly shows that you can still have a great movie without the unnecessary foul language and other questionable material all too often pushed on us by most film makers.The movie was excellent, with good humor, grit, suspense, and strong family values.I would highly recommend this movie to anyone looking to enjoy a film that will help enrich their lives.Ryan
