5.0 out of 5 stars Like Mike-all you need is a hear and you'll love this movie, July 3, 2002
By 
"lilbowwowchick04" (Paterson,New Jersey) - See all my reviews
I saw Bow Wow's movie Like Mike on it's debut day,July 3rd.The movie defintely gets two thumbs up for me...too bad I wasn't born with an extra thumb because then it would get 3! The movie isn't all about basketball....Bow Wow also has his mind set on finding a family to adopt him in the movie so it's not all about ball!This movie is for kids and grown-ups(they thre Morris Chestnut in there!)The movie is funny,sad,and many more. Go see it for yourself.

Great flick! Rented it from the library on a whim because I saw that Robert Forster was in it. Surprisingly good. Well acted and directed. The ending made me cry I am embarassed to say (tears of joy).

5.0 out of 5 stars Both Kids and Parents Will Enjoy!, January 2, 2003
This review is from: Like Mike (DVD)
What a great movie! This movie has a great story line, is very uplifting, and has a nice ending. I enjoyed the movie as much as the kids. Not only can Lil' Bow Wow sing but he can also act. Morris Chestnut also turned in a great acting job. He was extremely convincing as an NBA star. This is just an all around good movie! You won't be disappointed....
