Uneven basketball biopic has language, drinking, drugs.

Rated: 2/5

Matt Conway

Battle Royale With Cheese

Blackjack: The Jackie Ryan Story serviceably tells its underdog story but can't quite deliver on the film's full picture of promise.

The movie means well. The storytelling, timeline, acting, and accuracy all fall very short.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Jump in the front cart, buckle up, and enjoy this rollercoaster of emotions. A+ casting and acting takes you into the true life story of the best street baller the world has seen, Jackie Blackjack Ryan.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
