Powerful

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

What a bunch of baloney. There is NO WAY this storyline would end the same in real life.Common's character choosing Queen Latifah's character over Paula Patton' s character is definitely a REACH.Boo! Hiss!

Cute movie with excellent principles about love. Queen Latifah's character Leslie Wright is a stunning protagonist in this love story. On the other hand I didn't like the character Morgan Alexander because she was so fake. I somewhat liked Scott McKnight but I didn't like his choice in choosing Morgan. The flow of the movie was really good. I loved especially the scenes where Scott and Leslie are building their relationship until Morgan comes back. I loved all the parents in the movie and wished they all had more lines in the movie. Lastly, I think the movie could go longer and show Leslie's life with Scott. Overall it was a cute movie, but it's not one to purchase and keep.

A really happy little film. Once Again Queen Latifah puts a smile on my face in this basketball based film. In this Sweet little Rom Com Queen Latifah plays a rehabilitation nurse and die hard basketball fan who cant find the right guy. In a chance meeting with her hero Scott McKnight at a gas station she seems to catch his eye with her big personality and confidence but ends up second best to her "NBA Wife" stereotype sister who pulls out all the stops to make sure its her who ends up in the wives box. Whilst I'm not a big basketball fan I enjoyed the aspect of Latifahs character Leslie's career as a trainer/physio in the NBA and the scenes involving the basketball matches whilst not the main focus of the film where still enjoyable. Common perhaps the weak link in the film did feel a bit wooden playing the male lead but then again not like hes just stepping over the Oscar podium. The Romantic element was well done with Leslie falling in love with her basketball hero despite her wannabe famous sister already having married him. It was nicely played and Paula Patton did a great job making you dislike her spoilt character. Overall a nice addition to the tired Rom Com Genre, Queen Latifah Once again picks a project that's hard to dislike and criticize even tho it did feel very predictable. Well Worth a look if you want a movie where you can hit off button for your brain and just sit back and smile.

Basketball and romantic comedy is a weird mix, but I happen to like both, so "Just Wright" worked for me. I'm concerned the producers probably thought that they were going to get the male sports market AND the female romance market, but they are very wrong on that. Too much corny romance for most male viewers and too many basketball references for most female viewers. This can probably only be enjoyed by romantic comedy fans who also like the sport of basketball.The romantic comedy angle was very formulaic and obtuse. The entire story was laid out from the very beginning, and even earlier than that - it was all in the trailer. There was little depth to the characters and no depth to the situations. No laughs, no tears, but a few smiles.If you won't get too pained by how obvious the story is, there are some positives. I enjoyed Queen Latifah and, surprisingly, the rapper Common was very enjoyable too. They both came across as likable people whom I wanted to succeed. The slim vs. fat conflicts were kept to a minimum because they aren't their weight, they are people. And, again surprisingly, there was even attempted thought put into the psychology of sports injuries. Although there is almost nothing new in "Just Wright", there is enough to keep fans watching.
