The pic is so well directed and lead performance by Sanaa Lathan so charismatic that audiences will overlook the script's flaws and root for the central duo.

Rating: 3/5 --
Good romance, but strong sexuality for a PG-13.

Common Sense Media
Stylishly shot and bursting with visual and sexual energy, this is confident black women's film-making and an eloquent tribute to the girl with the permanently grazed knees -- and about time too.

This is a classic...but it does have some problematic elements with an adult viewing.

...LOVE & BASKETBALL is a touching romance, rich in humour and finely acted... -- 4 out of 5 stars

Rating: 3/4 --
An unusual but engaging mix of the overwrought and the understated, a picture that, at two hours plus, keeps threatening to overstay its welcome and yet always pulls us back into its conversational orbit.
