5/5 GOAT
  by Cain (Texas, USA)
This is an amazing movie and such a sad story, it would have been an honor to see him play against the best of the best with video footage at his best in the NBA. Would have been amazing, everyone should know the GOAT...

This was a great movie. Don Cheadle did a great job portraying "the goat." I was able to allow my S/A student to view it for educational purposes. Would recommend it to anyone who loves a great movie.

5/5 "The Goat"
  by Chris Rucker (New York)
Gentlemen,

I had an opportunity to visit The Goat in the hospital before he passed away. I made the mistake of calling him "Goat". Upon correcting me he said, "No, The Goat. What good is a king without his crown? What good is a man without his title?" I quickly got the point.

Thanks,

Chris Rucker

5/5 Is Don Cheadle in this movie? YES! He STARS!!
  by Eric V.
This is the first big film role for the great Don Cheadle, whose name is buried in the official promo material for "Rebound." He was an unknown at the time, so Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who has no real role, gets top feature. What the--?!

For me, Cheadle is the film. Excellent script, supporting actors, direction...but it's Cheadle's movie as a Harlem playground basketball genius. And he shows why he became an actor of distinction.

It helps a lot that Cheadle can play. At least, it sure looks like it. The story is tragic, but this movie just loves basketball. The court scenes are terrific. On the playground, in organized games.

As a boy, Manigault had the idea of practicing with ankle weights to strengthen his legs. He is finally allowed into a pickup game of older players. "Yeah, allright, you take him." Every ball kid's dream.

There is another where he takes a bet on how high he can jump. Memorable.

"Rebound" celebrates the game and one of the gifted men who played it and loved it. In all respects it's right up there with "Hoosiers."









5/5 Anything with Don Cheadle in it is worth owning!

Don Cheadle is a great actor and I have so many of his movies. I remember this on HBO and watching the success, shock, and tragedy of a man that took the wrong path. It really wakes you up. I think it would be a great movie for schools to play for students.
