Full-Court Miracle

The reason I watched this movie is because of Richard T. Jones. I enjoyed his acting on Judging Amy so thats why I wanted to catch this movie. I also enjoy movies with sports in them. I ended up enjoying the movie for more reasons than Jones being in it. I enjoyed the character played by Alex D. Linz and I learned some things about Jewish customs. It was the first time I had ever heard that song the family sung as well. I think Disney does a good job with their TV movies because I have seen a ton of them over the years. I remember one called 'The Mary Thomas Story' that was well done, and it's good to see Disney still making good TV movies. Catch this one if you can.

Auggh! Totally unconvincing depiction of a basketball game. So many childish errors that credibility is continually punctured. Even the antics of the onlookers are poorly acted - nothing looks goofier than poorly staged pictures of people cheering and reacting in an unconvincing manner.

And I am the only one who thought the Jewish miracle message was a bit heavy-handed given the trivial nature of the b-ball contest? I do applaud the attention and dignity that the script gives to the Jewish faith, though - the movie has noble intentions.

Movies get much, much better than this. I gave it 4/10.

SOooooooo I heard about this from mike super shorthw show and i thought it would be g8r to watch with my family and my 2 cats. it was pretty good. i liked the part where they shot the basketbala at the hoop and then it went in. and also i think that it's cool to see Alex D. Linz from Max Keeble's Long Move making another big star appearans. I think he will go on 2 do great things in sinema :B

o wait this move came out in 2003 T_T i guess that

The coaching can make a difference, but not give a lot of miracle. Full-Court Miracle is just a simply mediocre basketball film that's both generic and respectful to the Jewish people. I admire Richard Jones' performance as the coach and show off both his coaching and his basketball skills and the respects for the Judaism history references to set examples for basketball. But the plot is generic that makes the message of following your dreams feel forceful and that the characters are either uninteresting or just plain selfish. The ones I can think that are selfish are the ones that think of this mentality that following the life's footsteps is the only key to success and not dreams. I think the best recommendation is for basketball fans since they are probably used to films like this. However, I'll say that if you either celebrate Hanukkah or that you want to learn a bit of history, then I guess this would be for you. But I don't really see the rush to watch it. There are some miracles here that may happened, but not a lot to be fully impressive.

Full-Court Miracle is a 2003 Disney Channel Original Movie. It premiered on November 23, 2003. Inspired by the true story of University of Virginia basketball star Lamont Carr, the film centers on a group of young Jewish basketball players who search for a coach to help them out of a slump. The main character Alex Schlotsky is inspired by the true story of Alex Barbag and Chad Korpeck.

Inspired by the true story of basketball star Lamont Carr, of the University of Virginia Cavaliers, a film that is both cute and sad at the same time, the former player's broken dream becomes a booster for young people, complicating talent, poor people, who seek success in the basketball... Simple and cute...
