B-
"Although much of its archive footage from high school games shows up blurry, pixleated or in an otherwise raw form, it nonetheless clarifies the abilities of thoroughly committed young players executing their most impressive basketball skills."  ColeSmithey.com  Cole Smithey

2/4
"Hip-hop and basketball have never been so uninspiringly brought together as they are in Beastie Boy Adam Yauch's kinetic but shallow chronicle of the buildup to the first annual Boost Mobile Elite 24 Hoops Classic."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

B-
"Would be more at home on ESPN than the big screen. But B-Ball fans should enjoy it in either venue."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

"I daresay the results would inspire Eisenstein himself to proffer an affirming nod from the great beyond."  UGO  Keith Uhlich

4/5
"Easily the best movie of its kind since Steve James' Hoop Dreams."  Cinematical  Scott Weinberg
