The movie revolves around Jamal Jefferies, a hotheaded pro basketball player whose on-court antics and quick temper get him booted from the league altogether. But Jamal does not give up, he poses as a woman and joins the WUBA.

It's hard to know what to make of a film such as this, with its implicit message that it takes men to empower women in sports.

Simplistic, silly and tedious.

Vaughan brings such disregard to the film that its pedestrian on-court action might as well have been shot from the bleacher seats.

Some like it lukewarm in this tale.

Bogus and wickedly unoriginal.

As limp as it is lazy.

The movie is sloppily edited, the gags limply staged, the dialogue and jokes stiff and stale. Even the action on the basketball court is unimaginative and boring.

...about as exciting to watch as two last-place basketball teams playing one another on the final day of the season.

An unpersuasive moral journey, with a smattering of laughs, that fails to justify the insulting premise that only a man can help the ladies win at both basketball and love.

A Tootsie-role sports farce that's a drag in every which way.

The idea of transposing the story to the macho, greedy world of big-time sports is promising, but director Jesse Vaughan delivers only flat dialogue and predictable situations.

Cross-dressing sports comedy has lockerroom humor.
