TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Rodrigo Amaro Martin Lawrence plays Roy, an arrogant and famous basketball coach suspended after a rant during a match, and he's forced to coach a high school team of kids whose major kicks on the sport is to be losers. "Rebound" follows the clichéd path of many other films of the subject but fails almost in everything it tries so hard to copy. It tries to be funny but it isn't (I mean, not even a single joke); it tries to create a climatic match during the end but it's almost a boring thing to see and to get there you might fall asleep during the other scenes. Besides all the unfunny aspects there are more serious things to be said of "Rebound". With the notable exception of Steven Christopher Parker (who plays Wes, the intelligent kid but very unexperienced with basketball), all the other kids haven't got sympathetic characters, I couldn't relate with anyone of them (or relate with any character actually, everybody was boring or annoying). This was supposed to be a comedy, with some friendly characters and funny situations, but what I've got here was a distant, shallow and boring kid's movie. This wasn't a good comical vehicle for Lawrence although he has some good moments (the two scenes where he talks to one of the kids about being a good player, motivating the kids to not be "the only guy on the team who plays well and start thinking on the team as a whole). Sadly Breckin Meyer was reduced to two or three scenes, playing Lawrence's agent. This is not a case of a bad film with terrible things to show, but it is a misguided and unfunny little picture. 5/10

eXtreme23 Coach Roy (Lawrence) once was college basketball's top mastermind. But when his temper raises the limits he is banned from college basketball, his only coaching offer comes from a junior high school. This was his old junior high school, where he played a lot of basketball and won many state championships. The Smelters is what the team is called, and they never won a single basketball game ever, but with Coach Roy's help, they're sure that it will change.I'm getting kind of sick of these children/sport movies. The team is terrible but with the help of they're coach it will change. We just had "Kicking & Screaming" spring of 2005. I felt that it was a pretty decent movie, which I prefer over this. But these type of movies have to stop. They maybe pretty good family films, but most of them are predictable. What I did like about this one was that Coach Roy didn't have to do anything to get his team to the finals, it's that the team worked as a team and they got themselves to the top. Usually in these kinds of movies, the coach makes them better, but if you watch how Coach Roy performs his task as a coach, he knows what to do. I actually feel that Martin Lawrence is getting tierd of the movies he's doing. His roles were pretty good in the last decade, but I don't know about now.Rebound can be a good movie, but there are other sport movies that I prefer to watch before this. Such as "The Big Green", " Little Giants" and others. I did laugh a few scenes in this movie, it's pretty funny and it could be a decent movie. 6/10.

Lucas Ellis Coach Roy(Martin Lawrence) is a famous college basketball coach who's anger leads him to a indefinite suspension from the league. His life is spirals downhill and ends up coaching the middle school that he used to attend's basketball team.Once again, Martin Lawrence proves himself to be a horrible actor. I can honestly say I have only enjoyed one of his movies(Blue Streak). And now he takes a totally different approach: The Family Movie. Martin when will you learn? You are not funny unless you are absolutely vulgar! Besides Martin Lawrences performance the movie was actually not the worst kid's movie ever. I laughed at a few of the kid's remarks, just never at Martin Lawrence. The movie can be very closely related to Like Mike(Starring Lil Bow Wow) but the scenes in which they place basketball are not even as exciting. Overall, the movie is not anything worth watching even for a family film.I do not recommend this movie.
