....Marlon Wayans and Kadeem Hardison will make you laugh over and over again.After a star college basketball player dies of a heart condition, his little brother must take the team leader role. The older brother comes back as a ghost (that only his brother can see) to lead the team to be one of the best in the nation. They pull off some great tricks on the other teams like making a opposing player who picks on his little brother shoot a free throw like a quarterback throws a pass. The 6th Man is an excellent comedy for anyone, especially teens.

This video tends to get overlooked. It is entertaining and without the cheesy antics that grownups would sleep through. The movie's story about brotherly love that transends death is both happy and sad. A great video for the whole family. Some objectional language though.

I have probably watched every sports movie there is, and this movie just seems to stand out way more than any of them. It's probably my favorite movie of all time. If you have never seen this movie, please watch it. It will be worth your time I promise.

This movie was great back in the day man. Just like so many other movies that I get off amazon or from wherever, I used to watch this and never get tired of it. This is a story of two brothers, Antoine Tyler(Kadeem Hardison) & Kenny Tyler(Marlon Wayans) whos lives are centered around being college basketball stars. Brothers who love and care for one another and that have been through everything togeather. Including their father dying & their rise to the NCAA with college team The Huskies. Things take a turn for the worse when Antoine(Hardison) takes it to the hole for a big jam and looses his breath after the dunk. He falls flat back on the ground and the game is delayed. His brother Kenny(Wayans) immediantly comes to his aid and finds out that Antoine is going to the hospital. He wanted to go with him but Antione said no, stay here and finish. 'I'll be back.' Kenney and the Huskies suffer a defeat and Kenney rushes to the locker room to pack up and go to the hospital only to find out his brother died on the way there by his coach and he is devastated. Though the Huskies continue on, they just keep losing and losing every game and can't seem to win without Antoine. In an empty stadium one night Kenny drops his bags and talks to his deceased brother. Saying he can't do it without him and that they need him. This truly teary-eyed tale continues on with his brother returning as the ghostly 'Sixth Man' as he and his brother reunite and the Huskies pick up their game intensly. There are many hilarious scenes of Antoine messing with Kenny such as him going on a date. Only Kenny can see him so it just makes it that much greater. I don't wanna spoil anything else so yea just use your imagination. Wayans is the perfect guy for this and when its all said and done and they say their goodbyes you can't help but shed a tear with the great acting. If your a fan of basketball or if you just want some good laughs and don't mind crying, this is definetly for you. A great movie and something you will definetly hold on to in your collection as of of the your favs.

The first time I saw The 6th Man was about 5 or 6 years ago. I remember laughing so hard and also crying so hard. Its a remarkable story about 2 brothers, one of which is dead. This is one of my favorite movies and in my opinion, one of the best movies of all time. Also, the soundtrack to this movie is awesome!

I love this movie. It's my all-time fav movie. Marlon Wayans is hott!. If you want a funny movie that makes you cry somethimes, this movie gives you that. It's about 2 basketball star brothers and one dies. But he comes back and he taunts (not haunts) his younger brother and makes him look like a fool in front of their basketball team. It's hilarious!!

This was and still is a favorite movie from my childhood. All the great memories i had then are still present today. A must buy. Great movie

I first saw this movie when I was 23 years old, and that was because Marlon Wayans was the star. I love the Wayans Brothers. Now that I'm a bit older, the movie to me is just okay. Sure, we know it's unrealistic, but there are some parts in this film that make you say, "What? You mean, they can't SEE that?" It's one thing for a guy to "see" his dead brother where no one else can; but to have this dead brother lifting people 10 feet off the ground, making them FLY to the rim for a slam dunk, and nobody questions how that was even possible; kinda takes away from this movie. In one scene, we have Kenny Tyler (Marlon Wayans) eating dinner in a restaurant with his girlfriend, while dead brother Anton (Kadeem Hardison) manipulates Kenny's hands to pour an enormous amount of A1 steak sauce on his salmon, along with other dumb stunts at the dinner table that should have made his date say, "What's wrong with this guy?" The objective here was for Anton to make his former basketball team a better one; but producers and directors lost sight of that and made Ghost Anton very silly and immature, doing things to his brother that made people question Kenny's psyche. Why have people think your brother is crazy? It was noted in the movie that no one could see Anton but his brother Kenny, but Anton did everything possible to basically FORCE Kenny to tell people that he could see him! Then, as a bonus, Kenny and the team allows Anton to "help" them get all the way to the championship game and decides in the last game that they no longer need Anton because it's cheating. Ya think? In the nutshell, it's one of those movies that you can only watch one time.
