EDITOR'S NOTE

» In the next few weeks we will be trying out In-Text Advertising, a new type of advertising that we think is less intrusive than many other formats. Basically, keywords on our pages that correspond to an advertiser's product or service will be double-underlined in green. More details here.

Sex & Nudity
Violence & Gore
Profanity
1 to 10

MPAA Rating: R

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]
