Sunset Park (1996)

A white school teacher takes over a talented, but undisciplined black high school basketball team and turns them into a winning team. Product Description

Take The Mighty Ducks story...but, with less Disney.

And you have Sunset Park. It's all about a crappy sports team that makes it to the top by using teamwork. However, this one doesn't just tackle the crappy sports team aspect. It's definitely better in terms of either directing, acting, and everything, that involves Emilio Estevez in the role of a coach. There's a few life lessons to be learned, watching this movie, but they're all "Racism is bad, mmkay". If you're looking to buy anything Mighty Ducks related (at least, movie-wise), don't bother and pick up Sunset Park. It's better. December 18, 2005

Its an ok movie good story, but if your a true basketball fan i definatly reconmend Above The Rim it has a better story and its just a better movie overall. Good movie if your a fan of the genre. February 9, 2003

Bad Enough to Start Race Riots

Rhea Perlman, a short white woman, is going to teach basketball to her towering Black high school students. And even though she knows nothing about hasketball she can still turn them into winners because she's White and sensitive and wants to be their "sistah." Gag me. This whole movie is completely insulting to people of all races. The director seems so sure he can sell a hip-hop basketball movie this bad to "those people" that he doesn't even bother to hide his apparent distaste for them. Avoid at all costs! January 4, 2003
