HE GOT GAME (1998) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Spike Lee

Written by - Spike Lee

Starring - Denzel Washington

"A basketball player’s father must convince him to go to a college so he can get a shorter sentence. A father-son sport drama with the usual Spike Lee social commentary. Though it is flawed and too long, the mixture of a classicist melodrama at heart and the modernized visual style make this compelling to the heart and the eyes. Denzel Washington’s performance is among his best."
