ASSIGNED NUMBERS |

Basketball movie done with a "gangsta" flavor.
With Duane Martin, Leon, Marlon Wayans and Tupac Shakur. Directed by
Jeff Pollack. [1:37]
SEX/NUDITY 0 - None.
VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - One man is beaten up, cut with a razor blade and left for
dead. Another is shot at but not killed. Another is shot point blank in the chest: the
scene is very bloody, and he dies instantly.
PROFANITY 9 - Every other word is the F-word, and there's also a steady
stream of scatological and anatomical terms and insults. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Drug deals, racism, sexism, street violence.
MESSAGE - Good triumphs over evil, even if you have to kill someone to make
it happen.

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process. |
