Its Big Mommas House on the three-point line in this broad farce, which marks the leading man/woman debut of longtime character actor Miguel A. Nunez. Nunez stars as Jamal Jefferies, a hotheaded pro basketball player whose on-court antics and quick temper get him booted from the league altogether. Faster than you can say Dennis Rodman, Jamal has transformed himself into the busty Juwanna Mann in order to be a forward for a high-intensity team in the WUBA league, the Charlotte Banshees. Behind the doors of the womens lockerroom, Jamal unexpectedly falls for Michelle Langford (Vivica A. Fox), the teams no-nonsense captain. But prosthetic breasts and false eyelashes arent the only thing preventing Jamal from finding true love with Michelle: theres also the problem of her aggressive, two-timing boyfriend, Romeo (Ginuwine), not to mention the unwanted advances Juwanna gets from a skanky apper named Puff Smokey Smoke (Tom Davidson). ~ Michael Hastings, All Movie Guide
