Asian Hip Hop Hoops. Could it have been better? Sure but watch it as an underground indie thang and then you can appreciate it better. It feels like none of these cats are trained actors and you know what? Why not. It has a story that is worth telling. Learn more about other cultures everyone. (PS. too bad none of these guys are hoopers but... ;)
Looks great, smells bad. That's the overall message and reality of this movie. After so much hype and high reviews, it's amazing to see that the whole thing could have been avoided if : a) dude didn't smell, b) dude didn't say that dude smelled or c) dude didn't hear that dude said he smelled. If that's all it takes to radically change your film then you need to do a rewrite. It's not about class, or social blah blah, or injustice or wealth or yada yada yada, it's about smell and this movie is a stinker. Ca pue!
Tarantino has some good movies, some great movies and now a total fecal matter movie. Skip this one and watch Blazing Saddles instead. Blazing Saddles has better use of the n-word, is less boring and has an actual message.

If you want I'll spare you the interminable three hours and sum up the Tarantino version, here it is >>Spoilers<< Just say niggler minus the l over and over again until you pass out from boredom.
Honestly that word so many times was distracting and just smells of lazy writing. Might as well read a dictionary - at least you learn something. Do not pay money for a piece of fecal matter like that.
The term niggler is now probably the most offensive word in English. Its degree of offensiveness has increased markedly in recent years, although it has been used in a derogatory manner since at least the Revolutionary War. The senses labeled Extremely Disparaging and Offensive represent meanings that are deeply insulting and are used when the speaker deliberately wishes to cause great offense. It is so profoundly offensive that a euphemism has developed for those occasions when the word itself must be discussed, as in court or in a newspaper editorial: "the n-word." Despite this, the sense referring to a "black person" is sometimes used self-referentially among African Americans in a neutral or familiar way. The sense referring to other victims of prejudice, especially when used descriptively, as to denounce that prejudice, is not normally considered disparaging—as in "The Irish are the nigglers of Europe" from Roddy Doyle's The Commitments —but the other uses are considered contemptuous and hostile.
Niggler in senses 1 and 2 can be found in the works of such writers of the past as Joseph Conrad, Mark Twain, and Charles Dickens, but it now ranks as perhaps the most offensive and inflammatory racial slur in English. Its use by and among blacks is not always intended or taken as offensive, but, except in sense 3, it is otherwise a word expressive of racial hatred and bigotry.
