My quick rating - 5,2/10. The idea for this one is funny. Take some actual basketball (or recently retired) and have them play some elderly old school players to teach the youts a lesson. The makeup in this was superb, to the point you will forget this are players you were watching as recently as last year. Anyway, the laughs are sparse at best and don't come along often enough to keep you that entertained. The other major problem is the movie is so damn predictable you will guess what happens long before the setup for it happening even occurs. But that aside, it is still well made and deserves credit for the good. If you happen to look, I didn't keep this one, only because sure it was above a 5 (my usual keep or DELETE number) but I just can't see any reason to watch it again.
