White Men Can't Jump Ratings & Reviews
DwightBrownInk.com
Dwight Brown
As is, this update jumps, but never high enough.
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Valerie Complex
These remakes have an abysmal track record. First House Party was a dud, and now this? When are these films going to get better?!
Newsday
Robert Levin
Stick with the original.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
At its best this White Men Can't Jump conveys the fragility of hoop dreams, while tackling what former players do with their lives once the promise of signing bonuses and sponsorship deals appears to have fizzled.
RogerEbert.com
Robert Daniels
The film is as unimaginative as it is corny, as dull as it is cheap, and as unfulfilling as any cash grab for a well-known property could be.
Rolling Stone
Chris Vognar
The new movie feels about as genuine as a bad team claiming innocence as it tanks for lottery position.
Chicago Tribune
Nina Metz
Hoop dreams, indeed.
Salon.com
Gary M. Kramer
The main reasons this update throws a brick is because the miscast Harlow is hardly the charming rascal that Harrelson's character, Billy Hoyle, was.
TheWrap
William Bibbiani
A stripped down, conventional, mediocre version of a story that used to be anything but.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Walls and Harlow go together like wallpaper and toothpaste, or like jalapenos and Twinkies. In short, they don't go together, which makes for a pretty sloppy game of pick-up basketball.
Variety
Todd Gilchrist
Calmatic's 2023 remake not only fails to recapture the energy of the first film but seems to misunderstand the cinematic language of streetball, and is largely uninterested in utilizing Walls and Harlow except as delivery systems for exposition.
Associated Press
Jake Coyle
The film, directed by Calmatic, bounces to a hip-hop beat and the gameplay action is smoother. But the drop off in personality from that original trio is like going from the Lakers to the G-League.
TV Guide
Jordan Hoffman
The most interesting thing about this movie is that Kenya Barris and Doug Hall's script remains vague about Jeremy's inner life.
The Ringer
Adam Nayman
White Men Can't Jump doesn't have much vertical, but it's enough to get the job done.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
While the new version works fine on its own merits, compared to Shelton's film the storytelling feels too labored.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
While this is a serviceable, breezy, warm-hearted and occasionally amusing update, there's nary a moment when it doesn't feel … unnecessary.
AV Club
Tim Cogshell
Ironically, in some ways, the 30-year-old original is more woke than the remake. But make no mistake; Shelton's original version was pretty sexist too. The remake is trying not to be sexist; it's just failing at the attempt.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
Feels less like a desecration than a missed opportunity. And as missed opportunities go, it's pretty serious.
IndieWire
Kate Erbland
This thing should be light on its feet, fleet and fast and fun. Instead, it drags down the court, taking plenty of shots, but never quite sinking any of them.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
This ill-advised remake... comes across as an uninspired retread that lacks its own reason for being other than its appeal to baby boomer nostalgia.
