Shakil S. @SHAKIL504 Dec 25 GOATED MOVIE!!! SHEP See more Mo S. @9mr_0 Dec 14 فيلم بين المتوسط والضعيف See more thiago s @Thiagostone Aug 8 Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Lyle P 09/24/2024 Not a bad movie. I watched it mainly cause I was a big Tupac fan at the time but it's good. See more A.L.Jude P @judebd 02/18/2024 Wasted efforts and time that could have been avoded. See more 03/27/2023 Duane, Martin, Marlon Wayans, Bernie Mac, and Tupac Shakkur a sports-drama about a rising athletic youth torn between his family loyalties and his aspiration for sports directed by Jeff Pollack this was part of the 90's black film renaissance surrounding the drug culture, the violence, and inner-city racial tensions Kyle Lee Watson has two brothers and his mother; he's a basketball student hoping to win a scholarship to help his mother's expenses two of his siblings live in different worlds, Shep is a security guard at the school and the other is Birdie living in the streets of crime and drugs Kyle wants to make it big but his attitude gets him in more trouble than one would expect, yet Shep may be the one person to push him to be better even after he himself gave up his life-long dream in basketball problem is that Birdie may have Kyle wrapped around his finger too tightly so it makes one wonder which team is he actually playing for the film works as a drama, a sports film, and making hip-hop more mainstream a very slick soundtrack, too with Snoop Dogg and Tupac himself it's very short but says a lot about playing the game, knowing the game, and being a team player not just in basketball but for our loved ones as well we can't erase what we were, does having a team make us more successful in the game?, people move past the things they're running towards or they stop altogether, do we owe others anything for future success or just ourselves, who's team are we actually playing for in life?
