Excellent Movie
by Nicholas D. Schwartz (Minneapolis, MN)
This inspirational, strong, sad, and uplifting story reflects life in brooklyn, and it is just so good. I am a huge spike lee fan and this is one of his top 5 in my mind, incredible. I Love this Movie!
5/5
Great Movie
by Daniel P. Kustka (South Orange, NJ)
Denzel delivers a great performance, that is different from his other classic roles. Denzel plays Jake Shuttlesworth, father of Jesus, (played by NBA great Ray Allen). The movie is phenomenal, a must see.
2/5
Best Soundtrack Ever
by Eric G. Bakke (Seattle, WA United States)
Other than Denzel Washington's performance, the movie is horrible, 1 star quality. However, I bump it up to 2 stars for the movie score...it's amazing. This movie introduced me to Aaron Copland and I was blown away. Spike Lee does a fantastic job incorporating Copland's music into the film, without it I would of walked out of the theatre. The film is worth watching just to hear Coplands music in the backdrop.He Got Game Go buy this soundtrack.
5/5
An Amazing Story of Father & Son
by Derrick Dunn (Woodbridge,VA)
He Got Game hit home for me, because I don't have a father in my life. As an aspring filmaker I always have dreams that my father will come back at a crucial point in my life as Denzel did to Ray in this movie. This a movie that every father and son should see. The cinematography, script and acting are all top notch. One of Spike's best films since Clockers.
He Got Game Summary
Array
Academy Award(r)-winner Denzel Washington (best Actor, 2001, Training Day) Stars In This Must-see Story About A Convict Given One Shot At A Second Chance To Be A Father! With Promises Of A Reduced Sentence, Jake Shuttlesworth (washington) Is Granted Temporary Release From State Prison In Order To Persuade The Nation's Top Basketball Recruit ... His Estranged Son, Jesus (ray Allen Of Nba's Milwaukee Bucks), To Play Ball For The Governor's Alma Mater! But Just As Jesus Faces Intense Pressures And Irresistible Temptations Contemplating His Big Decision, Jake Is Also Forced To Consider Not Only What's Best For Himself ... But What's Best For His Son! With A Groundbreaking Soundtrack By The Legendary Public Enemy -- Plus Great Cameos From John Turturro And Basketball Personalities Dick Vitale, John Thompson, Dean Smith, And More, He Got Game Is A Critically Acclaimed Hit You Don't Want To Miss!
As a filmmaker and passionate fan of basketball, Spike Lee was the perfect director for this ambitious and heartfelt sports drama, which brought out the best in both Lee and his well-chosen cast. In his third film for Lee, Denzel Washington plays Jake Shuttlesworth, who is in prison for the manslaughter of his wife. His estranged son Jesus (well played by Milwaukee Bucks basketball player Ray Allen) is the nation's best high school basketball star, and Jake receives a compelling offer from the state's governor: If Jake can convince Jesus to sign a letter of intent to attend Big State University, the governor will reduce his sentence. Lee turns this back-room bargain into a fascinating examination of capitalism in college and professional sports, but the film also works as the moving story of a father's desperate attempt to regain his son's respect. Lee handles the basketball angle with an insider's awareness, and takes a few stylistic risks (including a memorable final image) that pay off with considerable emotional effect.
He Got Game
fully explores the visual poetry of basketball and the greed that fuels this particular vision of the American dream, but Lee never loses sight of the sport's inherent beauty, or the higher priorities of redemption and family that form the solid foundation of this exceptional film.
