The movie's got a brilliant plot, which is about this lad called Billy (Woody Harrelson) who's pretty much making a living out by conning the African American basketball players. The way that he goes about it, is that he acts like he can't play basketball at all and he later teams up with Sidney (Wesley Snipes), who's pretty much one of the original people who he was conning but they come together and they try to double his chances on winning.

The acting throughout this movie is brilliant, especially from Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes, the two of them give some really good performances throughout.

Also, the dialogue from the characters throughout this movie is pretty good, nothing feels too forced in any sort of way, it just feels natural and it's very good.

Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes have got some great chemistry throughout this movie, which is really good and it adds to their characters.

Finally, the cinematography from Russell Boyd is pretty decent, he captures the moments pretty well, which end up happening throughout this movie.

Overall, White Men Can't Jump is a really good movie. It's got a brilliant plot, brilliant acting, pretty good dialogue, great chemistry and some decent cinematography.… Expand

The dialogue between Woody and Wesley is superb and so believable you'd think they were best friends in real life. Expertly crafted film that deserves nothing less than a 10. I found no faults in this film that warrant it anything other than a 10.… Expand
