One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Richard Jones the former court clerk on Judging Amy leads a nice mostly Canadian cast in a made for TV movie about the true story of Lamont Carr who inspired a bunch of Yeshiva kids to become the best basketball players they could be.These kids from the Philadelphia Hebrew Academy are more than likely not going to make the NBA still there love of the game is there. It's also nicely integrated with their faith. Alex D. Linz is the one who finds Jones living out of his van and they negotiate with him being their coach.The fact he's not Jewish is not a barrier but to Sheila McCarthy the principal her suspicious hackles are raised. Dare I say she becomes the Scrooge in this Channukah classic.Full Court Miracle is a nice family film for Jews at what is their Yuletide season. Nice film for everybody.

My computer connection went down for awhile so I flipped on the boob tube & there on HBO was "Full Court Miracles" - a WONDERFUL FEEL GOOD - POSITIVE movie about believing, hope, inspiration & not giving up!! Alex Linz just wouldn't give up in HIS PASSION - despite being short & not that good & despite his mother attempting to break him down/squelch his dreams (for her OWN dreams for him! Why do SOOOOO MANY parents do that to their kids???).Richard T. Jones had such compassion!We NEED LOTS more movies out there like this!!! THANX to ALL involved in the making of this movie!!!!

If you enjoy gathering around the TV for a happy family movie, "Full Court Miracle" is an excellent choice. During Hannukah, the movie takes on the full importance of the true meaning of the festive holiday. It is an excellent way to point out the fine qualities of Judah and the Maccabbees. The movie also shows some fine morals about accepting all people, that may not have the same beliefs that you hold. Alex D. Linz is an exceptional child actor. Maybe in our own lives, miracles do not take place as they do in this movie, but it is nice to know that hope and perseverance can spawn a kind of "miracle". I highly recommend this movie to families of all faiths. It is very heartwarming and a joy to watch!

Okay I have got to say that this is one of the coolest sports movies ever!It not only brings entertainment to it's viewers but it also educates them on basketball and the jewish religion. The movie has a strong cast, a great plot and just the right amout of humor and the guys wern't all that bad looking either! I loved this movie and I think it teaches viewers that miracles can and will happen, I give this movie 10 out of 10 stars I think this is an exceedingly good movie, and it's just a tv movie!
