After draining his life savings to enter a team in the Rucker Classic street ball tournament in Harlem, Dax is dealt a series of unfortunate setbacks, including losing his team to his longtime rival. Desperate to win the tournament and the cash prize, Dax stumbles upon the man, the myth, the legend Uncle Drew and convinces him to return to the court one more time. The two men embark on a road trip to round up Drew’s old basketball squad and prove that a group of septuagenarians can still win the big one. (Lionsgate US)

This is a very nice surprise and one of the best black comedies, and actually about basketball, I've seen. Uncle Drew is an unbelievable dude who plays basketball with love and does some really incredible things at times, but I was also entertained by the rest of the team with the pastor, the blind man, the old man in a wheelchair and the giant, it's a really amazing lineup. I also liked the local English with its sharp slang. I really laughed for the first hour and enjoyed the great basketball games for the second hour and for a sport I'm not into at all, I couldn't stop gawking. Amused, touched, surprised. 80%.
