      Joseph Jon Lanthier Slant Magazine Less a movie than a sadomasochistic plot party where every conceivable contrivance of teenage woe is asphyxiated to the brink of orgasm and then abandoned to gasp for air and soothe its throbbing vitals. Rated: 1/4 Jun 1, 2009 Full Review Ronnie Scheib Variety Handcuffed to a story with no internal development and without the stylistic rigor to transform its jerky stop-and-start rhythm into an aesthetic, pic jumps from one disconnected scene to another. Oct 18, 2008 Full Review John P. McCarthy Boxoffice Magazine Ball Don't Lie has what you might call an excess of street cred. Rated: 2.5/5 Oct 9, 2009 Full Review Cole Smithey ColeSmithey.com Kim Hidalgo gives a notable performance as Sticky's girlfriend Anh-thu, but it's Boucher's slow-burn intensity and unmistakable basketball skills that drive this entertaining independent drama. Rated: B Mar 19, 2009 Full Review Erik Davis Cinematical Had Ball Don't Lie gone the straight linear route and changed the story so that our main character was actually working toward a concrete goal, perhaps the film would've shined.
