Worrell (Emmy Award-winner Jim Varney) struggling to make the cut on his buddies' fast-running city league team. But when the Basketball Angel (NBA superstar Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) steps in to lend him a pair of magic shoes, Ernest goes from benchwarmer to king of the court in a thrilling game against the NBA's Charlotte Hornets! Don't miss this wild and wacky comedy adventure -- it'll keep you entertained from the opening tip-off to the final-second countdown!

2.0 out of 5 stars The worst Ernest movie., August 7, 2000
This review is from: Slam Dunk Ernest [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I found the magic sneeakers plot very stupid. I'm sorry Jim (may you rest in peace), but this one was one I looked forward too and it was a let down. But I'l still watch it, just because it's an Ernest movie. Sorry Mr./Mrs. barb@favorites.com, but in case you haven't heard, Jim Varney died earlier this year. I know it's sad, I'm still mourning over it. Maybe the people who made the Ernest movies will come to their senses and rerelease the Ernest movies in his memory. Or maybe he finished Ernest the Pirate before he died and release that.

1.0 out of 5 stars The pits, September 4, 2001
By 
Sir Bowen (Houston, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Slam Dunk Ernest [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I'm a bona-fide Ernest fan. But if I had seen this movie first, I probably would never have seen another Ernest movie. It's just not funny. Jim Varney's talents are wasted, and nobody else in this movie had any talent to begin with.

For those looking for great Ernest, check out "Ernest Rides Again", "Ernest Goes to Camp" or "Ernest Goes to Jail."

3.0 out of 5 stars Ernest...Enough Said!, July 14, 2006
This review is from: Slam Dunk Ernest (DVD)
Indeed, this is not the best Ernest film that has ever been created, but it is still an Ernest film. Once again, Jim Varney plays Ernest, the clumsey man who has all the good intentions in the world and saves the day in the end. It's funny, you never picture Ernest as a basketball player and this movie proved that he isn't lol! The movie, as in his previous films, has good heart. If you are a fan of Ernest, you should at least check this film out. I'm not recommending that you buy it just yet. Compared to some of his other movies, the movie doesn't compare to greats such as Ernest Goes to Jail. Still, I can't help but feel a little sad now that Jim has passed and we no longer have Ernest to save the day. It was a great legacy, and the character is portrayed very weil in this film. The story is sadly just not much to work with.
