Juwanna Mann

This would-be comedy, about a professional basketball player who tries out for a women’s team, is so astonishingly, obviously bad you’re left wondering who even considered going to see it. I suppose star Miguel A. Nunez Jr. has a few relatives who attended out of duty, but for the rest of us, the broad, redundant images of Nunez dancing around in a bra and speaking in a strained falsetto sound less like entertainment than cruel and unusual punishment. I don’t know about you, but I did nothing to deserve this.

“… a scrappy, neo-realist tale of societal scrounging that’s paused by poetic moments of slow cinema.”

Tropical Malady (2004)

Drama Rated NR

“Unusually sensitive, in the sense that every element seems to pulse with its own life force. . .”
