Review of Rebound

Rebound (2005)
6/10
Predictable but it may be a fun family film
17 March 2006
Coach Roy (Lawrence) once was college basketball's top mastermind. But when his temper raises the limits he is banned from college basketball, his only coaching offer comes from a junior high school. This was his old junior high school, where he played a lot of basketball and won many state championships. The Smelters is what the team is called, and they never won a single basketball game ever, but with Coach Roy's help, they're sure that it will change.

I'm getting kind of sick of these children/sport movies. The team is terrible but with the help of they're coach it will change. We just had "Kicking & Screaming" spring of 2005. I felt that it was a pretty decent movie, which I prefer over this. But these type of movies have to stop. They maybe pretty good family films, but most of them are predictable. What I did like about this one was that Coach Roy didn't have to do anything to get his team to the finals, it's that the team worked as a team and they got themselves to the top. Usually in these kinds of movies, the coach makes them better, but if you watch how Coach Roy performs his task as a coach, he knows what to do. I actually feel that Martin Lawrence is getting tierd of the movies he's doing. His roles were pretty good in the last decade, but I don't know about now.

Rebound can be a good movie, but there are other sport movies that I prefer to watch before this. Such as "The Big Green", " Little Giants" and others. I did laugh a few scenes in this movie, it's pretty funny and it could be a decent movie. 6/10.
