Slamma Jamma (2017)
Clichéd but very heartwarming, Excellent Michael Irvin
7 December 2017 - 64 out of 68 users found this review helpful.
This film does an excellent job in painting the picture of a down and out guy who has one last chance. The story is the classic come-back-from-behind, a staple of sports movies, but the authenticity of the backdrop helps a great deal. Michael Irvin is excellent in an understated performance as the sports agent gone bad. He has a few skeletons in his closet and the film handles this cliché well. Chris Staples plays a ex con and convinces. The energy in the slam dunk contests is effortlessly captured. I found 'Slamma Jamma' clichéd but heartwarming and its one of my all time favorite sports movies.
