This could have had a lot of potential. It makes for an interesting story line, converting it to a love story. However, the budget had to be so low, I think it might have been filmed on an iPad. The acting was really weak, the camera work was slow, the scene fades were awkward and there were a ton of choppy scenes. I think most of the actors had to be pulled directly from the nearby towns. The lead male actor was actually decent, but after that, it was pretty rough. I graduated high school in the early 90's so this was a pretty neat idea for a movie. But again, it was just done so poorly.

Good Idea, Poor Execution
So bad its almost funny.
So bad an attempt at a movie, and telling a story, that its almost funny. And if it was a parody it would be all the way funny. But unfortunately, it's not. But it is truly Pathetic. I watched with my sister in-law, who was on one of the most acclaimed 6 on 6 teams ever in Oklahoma. They went 28-0 in their championship year. We were anticipating seeing either a historical film telling what was special of the lost but great competitive game of 6 0n 6 basketball, and/or perhaps a really good movie or story to go with it. This movie was none of the above. I would rate it a ZERO if I could. The acting is bad, the production is terrible, the script is predictably awful, and the whole package is quite unbelievably poor. I has no creativity, artistry, nor chemistry. To say that a most student film projects would be a better watch than this, would be an insult to student films. Do yourself a favor and skip this.
This is actually the worst movie I have ever seen.
It's terrible. Just really, really bad. Terrible script, terrible lighting, terrible audio, terrible cinematography. Everything is just so, so bad.
