The Story
Aside from the thrill of watching Grayson (“Professor”) Boucher razzle-dazzle a basketball through hoops (a pleasure familiar to fans of ESPN’s “Streetball”), Brin Hill’s curiously perfunctory filmization of Matt de la Pena’s popular novel “Ball Don’t Lie” has little to offer, especially when its teen athlete leaves the court. Handcuffed to a story with no internal development and without the stylistic rigor to transform its jerky stop-and-start rhythm into an aesthetic, pic jumps from one disconnected scene to another. Theatrical prospects look iffy, but Boucher’s presence could spike ancillary interest.
“Ball” shuttles between an indifferent, 24-hour present-tense reality and a dramatic, 10-year backstory, visually alighting somewhere between documentary and fiction to the detriment of both. Helmer Hill aims for the unpolished grittiness of verite, but achieves neither its immediacy nor unexpectedness. Simultaneously, pic’s considerable thesping support, including Nick Cannon, Ludacris and Melissa Leo, seems somehow diminished, relegated to the grayness of the bummer flashbacks. The sole exception is a luminous Rosanna Arquette, granted too little time on screen and on earth, her character’s absence mourned by hero and viewer alike.

The Review
Sticky, 17, white, has spent his life being abused by pimps living with his prostitute mother, bouncing from one foster home to another, and living on the street between failed placements. But he’s developed incredible hoop skills that have given him considerable social standing among his mostly black peers. And he gets a girlfriend named Anh-thu, who loves him and wants to help him reach his dreams. Sticky sees basketball as his way out of his dead-end life and is determined to make the right moves in the game to attain his goal. But he doesn’t quite know how to make the right moves in his life, until a bad decision leads him to confront his dark secrets.
