From Amazon.com
Kevin Bacon stars in this quickie sports film that's really more a culture-clash comedy. He plays an assistant coach at the college-basketball level who's looking for that big, big recruiting score and finds it in a distant African village. But his quarry, a seven-footer (Charles Gitona Maina) he spots in an anthropology film, turns out to be the prince of his tribe who's in line for the crown and has no interest in becoming fodder for Sports Center. So it's up to the callous American to convince him that he wants to give this all up to live in a dorm and chase coeds (while, of course, honoring his ancestors). Unfortunately, the jokes are stale and the basketball footage is nothing to get excited about. --Marshall Fine

Airs on Air December 27, 2003
How did they do that? The most heart warming story about basketball ever. Did the actor really score or was it a basketball player that did a great job of acting? I guess we'll never know. Worth the price for the DVD. A must for your collection.
good movie for the whole family September 28, 2002
I love Kevin Bacon in anything he does. But this picture I feel was one of the best. I will buy it and watch it over and over and over.
Very Entertaining August 13, 2002
This is a very entertaining movie and the jokes aren't stale, they are very funny. A wonderful fairy tale with delightful characters. A great family film with some pretty exciting basketball to boot!
 A funny Basketball film. January 29, 2002
A Aggressive College-Basketball Couch (Kevin Bacon) tries to Recuit a new player from the Kenyan Tribe.Directed by Paul Micheal Glasser (The Running Man, The Cutting Edge) has made a familiar but Often Goofy Comedy. Some of the Basketball Scenes are Extremely Funny. Filmed in South Arfica and Kenya. Grade:B.
