this ain't hoops, cause jackie Moon said so.


First he had a perm as Ron Burgundy
than he when short as Ricky Bobby,
later with a mullet in Chazz Michael Michaels,
Now let me introduce to he new do,
the afro, as Jackie Moon, the famous, basketball promoter, and owner, of the flint tropics. And this is he story:
Jackie Moon(Will Ferrell) is a famous singer, with he s softy and jazzy singing, that made him into a superstar, that let him win all kind of awards, but nothing was better than being the owner and coach of the Flint Michigan Tropics, in the America basketball association(or just ABA). But being that they 're the worst team in the league, but a break come, when news is spread that the Aba was merging with the NBA, they only want 4 team, while rest disapear as disco did. So now the commisionar is giving every team a chance to be on top 4 team to make it to the pro. So what the tropics do, they trade their washing machine, for a pro from the NBA, Monix(Woody Harrelson) that he accepted to be close to her girlfriend Lynn(Maura Tierne), but start having a feud with the only star of the team Clarence(Andre Benjamin). While jackie start the season by giving entertainment on every half time show, so they needed a new coach, who knows he way around on the blackboard, that where Monix is in play, while jackie find away, to bring more audiences, and start turnning he team into a franchise, will they reach their goal, will they work as team? Just sit , and see on how a man that fought a bear make it happen.
O.K. then what did like about the movie, was the crazy stunt that will ferrell pull, from the jumping over a ramp over 8 cheerleaders, to what may be the funniest moment, the fighting of Dewie, the killer bear, that run amok, in the whole picture. And of course the owing of $10 000 to duke, But felt the movie lack on the storyside, cause is something common of any sport movie, exemple MAJOR LEAGUE. The joke were classic, like anything that Will Ferrell film have, from introducing of the team at the beginning of the movie, to the the low blow that Woddy gives to Will to show him how to vomit. Woddy Harrelson role was the drama of the story, that remind me of another sport film he did with westley snipe. Andre Benjammin, was perfect for him, as the athlete that wanna make it to majors. The feud that both of this character had, when well, but confusing on who's the real star of this. I didnt fell the movie as a hoops ripoff, but something that that can make fun on how to be basketball team, and turning it , into a franchise. the stunts was the pride and joy of the film from giving free corn dog to making a dance number, that have what would happen if they have made a b version of the little mermaid. But the chemistry of all the actors work, especially to the foreign one that didn't understand nothing of English. The relationship of the Monix with Lynn, remind to same story in that every sport movie have. But the gold of this movie was the commentaries, of Will Arnell, gives, from the talk of the jackson five, to the pulling gun in the poker scene. That really show how screw up are we, when you 're around friends.
so the only foul that this movie have, they have should have made fun of the game, especially when it take place in the lates 70s. Some of gag work for me, like the bear attacking Andy Richter, to even the commissioner. They should have gone along with that, like the golfer of caddy shack.
So if ye wanna see , Will Ferrell, in a fro, this is your movie, with no declassification, in it.
Is even better when ye see him treating a father re ff. That's classic.
