About this movie

After draining his life savings to enter a team in the Rucker Classic street ball tournament in Harlem, Dax (Lil Rel Howery) is dealt a series of unfortunate setbacks, including losing his team to his longtime rival (Nick Kroll). Desperate to win the tournament and the cash prize, Dax stumbles upon the man, the myth, the legend UNCLE DREW (NBA All-Star Kyrie Irving) 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 (Shaquille O'Neal, Chris Webber, Reggie Miller, Nate Robinson, and Lisa Leslie) and prove that a group of septuagenarians can still win the big one.

Ratings and reviews

I was hopeful for this movie but it just was not well put together. The tiny intro at the beginning was the funniest part. The script was lazy, the plot just boring, and it was just not that funny. I was disappointed, would not recommend.

Disappointed. Could have been a lot funnier. Glad I didn't go to theaters. Lil rel was the only one there was funny. Should have left it as a commerical

The acting sucks. Let me just put it this way, I laughed more at the outtakes when the credits were rolling than the actual movie itself which is sad.
