Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

MartinHafer The film chronicles Jeremy Lin's life and basketball career--from his childhood days playing ball through the end of the 2012 basketball season. To do this, Lin himself is interviewed as well as his friends, family and a variety of other sources. This documentary is about Lin--a journeyman NBA player who briefly was a HUGE sensation when he played for the New York Knicks. Despite his bouncing around to a few other teams since this incredible season back in 2012, the story is worth seeing for many reasons--particularly due to Lin's size and his humble pedigree. A 6'3" Asian-American who graduated from Harvard is NOT the sort of guy you'd expect to even play in the NBA--let alone spur on the fans like he did in the 2012 season.This is an enjoyable film overall. The only real negative is that Lin is still young and exactly where his career will go is a great unknown--and so when the film ends, there isn't exactly a sense of where he and his career are going next.

AfroPixFlix "I want to be like Mike...but I PRAY to be like Lin!" How often do you meet a sports figure whom you really, really like? One forged so solidly in his faith that you can gain inspiration from every phase of his life, not just the limelight? Fortunately for us, Lin's family had so much footage that it seems we saw this kid grow up next door to us. That's the mark of good parenting and good editing and directing on the part of Evan Jackson Leong. Lin's character hasn't changed, though his circumstances have been whirlwind. How inspirational for the world to see how someone from such a humble background can become propelled to the heights of international fame. The watchword: be ready. This may be a spoiler, both for the film and the game of life, but the good guy wins here, and it isn't a fluke. Lin won by hard work, persistence, and the grace of God. Lin stayed faithful. Let's hope (yes, and pray) that Lin and so many other athletes (and budding chemists, plumbers, and CPAs) will keep trying, believing, and teaching us the importance of walking by faith, not by sight. (That's in the Rulebook, 2 Corinthians 5:7) AfroPixFlix offers eight forks (and they're not pitchforks) for this one. See it. Share it. Talk it up, fans.

neovaliane It's a superb! This documentary is well organized, the story well told, and the theme well expressed. Lin is an evangelical Christian, and was a leader in Harvard's Asian American Christian Fellowship during his time there.He credited his NBA success to playing without pressure. "I've surrendered that to God. I'm not in a battle with what everybody else thinks anymore," said Lin. He hopes to become a pastor who can head up non- profit organizations, either home or abroad, and has talked of working in inner-city communities to help with underprivileged children.Lin is focused on ignoring those concerns. He said he's not even worried about the pressure that comes with being a man of faith."It's a platform I've been given," Lin said. "I want to be real. I don't want to have a false image. I want people to see who I am and what God has done in my life."If people don't like me or are waiting for me to fail, that's on them. I don't want to offend anybody. I don't want to be overbearing. But I've got to be who I am."

Whitman Lam I watched it with my brother and his wife (Who will be expecting their first baby next month). We are avid basketball fans, so we knew the story, but this gave us a better glimpse into who he is, rather than the media icon he has become. It was truly inspiring, and proof that heroes can come out of anywhere, even Harvard. I just wish there was more footage of NY Knicks fans screaming their heads off. It was a little different than your usual movie with big budgets, this was very low budget and looked that way. The home video scenes were nicely done. The interviews were interesting, but I wish they had more sides to the story, like interviewing opponents after Jeremy Lin had beaten them. Also wish they would interview more girls (Some of whom were absolutely gone crazy for Jeremy.)
