Slamma Jamma is a faith-based dramatization starring real-life slam dunker Chris Staples as a basketball-playing ex-con who goes back to his old L.A. community to transform his life around. There's very little in the means of strong language (uncommon use "damn," "hell," and also "oh my God"), sexuality, or compound usage, however you could expect some weapon risks and physical violence. A store clerk is shot as well as killed in a break-in, though audiences do not see the bullet land. And also gang members who market medications are featured in the story. Looter alert: A major personality dies in a long, sad healthcare facility scene. Christian messages are delivered throughout (i.e., "God will certainly be with us;" "God has a strategy"), and followers that such as high-flying jumps over males and bikes could take pleasure in the basketball activity.

Unless you're a fan of the physical act of the slam dunk (which there are plenty in this movie), there's absolutely nothing to advise in this artless redemption story. The story has no shocks, and, strangely enough, redemption isn't really even an element. The criminal charges that sent Michael to jail were false, so he never required redeeming. But he constantly speaks about being a "changed man."

Just what's even more, writer-director Timothy A. Chey relies upon every city motto. A rich professional athlete as well as battling underdog vie for the heart of a good female. The gang life supplies gravy train-- so the hero will sell his spirit. The climactic contest impends big, with never an uncertainty concerning the end result. Slamma Jamma has a decent message-- hanging onto belief and determination is a definitive method to climb from the ashes of younger "errors"-- however the film itself is born down by so many missed out on chances that it's difficult to enjoy.
