I, personally, haven't seen this movie. For those of you who have seen it should I see it in the theater or wait until it comes out on DVD and rent it?

I saw it. I liked it. I'd recommend it. It helps if you know black people. The story and message are true to humanity, but the injection is culturally specific, kind of like Napolean Dynamite.

I saw it. I thought it was alright. I don't think it's particularly earth-shattering, but neither did I feel it was a waste of time. I know it's theoretically based on a true story; what I'd like to know is how realistic the portrayal of the players' attitudes in the end were. I would say, if you see it, see it at a matinee. I wouldn't pay full evening prices for it.
