Anything with Don Cheadle in it is worth owning!

Don Cheadle is a great actor and I have so many of his movies. I remember this on HBO and watching the success, shock, and tragedy of a man that took the wrong path. It really wakes you up. I think it would be a great movie for schools to play for students. June 1, 2008

Rebound

Good movie, I graduated from the H.S. The Goat attended - Benjamin Franklin - movie did not depict HS and surrounding area. Most of the movie was filmed in TORONTO!!!! Although, the movie does a good job of depicting NYC streetball stars and what led to their demise. January 19, 2008

My friend bought this

I dont have really anything to say about this because my friend bought it. She seems to like it though she said she has watched it over and over already. January 7, 2008

Rebound Movie

This movie was both heart warming & intriguing. It tells the story of his childhood, his rise as well as his fall to fame, and how he over came his demons & addictions. Never a dull moment, I highly recommend this movie to all basketball buffs as well to anyone who loves to learn about real people & real stories! September 12, 2007
