Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Has warm starring performances from Bow Wow (formerly Lil Bow Wow) and Chi McBride, who are funny, lovable and sometimes touching. full review

Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
A frothy blend of sports drama clichés and Sixteen Candles-esque angst with a knack for authentic period detail. full review
