Good harmless fun

Rating: 7/10 (17 January 2004)

You'd think the easiest thing to do is play yourself in a movie. Yet the great Michael Jordan clearly seemed uncomfortable with his lines. Larry Bird and the other ball players (Patrick Ewing, Muggsy Bogues, Charles Barkely,etc.) seemed more at ease in front of the camera.

But Jordan sure can play ball. The basketball moments are what this film's about. MJ was at the height of his popularity and it was great for the kids to see their favorite looney tune characters interact with MJ and Bill Murray and the rest.
This is just a popcorn movie for kids, and those who like hoops will find it real entertaining.
