From 20th Century Studios, the all-new comedy "White Men Can't Jump" is a modern remix of the iconic 1992 film that celebrates the streetball hustling culture of Los Angeles. Multi-platinum rap superstar Jack Harlow makes his movie debut as Jeremy, a former star of the game whose injuries stalled his career, and Sinqua Walls stars as Kamal, once a promising player who derailed his own future in the sport. Juggling tenuous relationships, financial pressures and serious internal struggles, the two ballers--opposites who are seemingly miles apart--find they might have more in common than they imagined possible.

Critics Consensus

Never mind being able to get air -- the White Men Can't Jump remake struggles to come up with reasons for its own existence.

Audience Says

Even though it's nowhere near as entertaining as the original, White Men Can't Jump is still a decent enough way to pass the time.

Director Calmatic is both NBA and hip-hop savvy, but the film lacks any real urgency.

These remakes have an abysmal track record. First House Party was a dud, and now this? When are these films going to get better?!

If you like the 1992 classic you might enjoy this update, but if you don’t have the time to kill, it’s probably worth sticking to the original.

Doesn’t exactly work up a sweat in the ideas department.

This new take on White Men Can't Jump tries to be a modern remix of the iconic 1992 film. Honestly didn't come into this movie with any expectations and I loved it! It's definitely not a movie to take seriously but if you want a classic story arc with funny and modern comedy then this is it. It doesn't try anything too bold and doesn't make you cringe at any point! I enjoyed this film so much, I've already seen it three times. Hilariously funny.

So, the film is great for laughing, but that's it... If you play basketball and think you'll identify with it, well, you won't

If you are expecting a movie near as good as the original movie you will hate this as much as I do. This is a lazy rewrite of a classic movie. Not funny and not entertaining at all.

Not really worth watching. I skipped ahead multiple times looking for a plot and action. Why does this movie exist ? Lol.
