As the father of highly recruited Basketball prospect, Jesus Shuttlesworth, Jake Shuttlesworth (Denzel Washington) is granted a week of parole by the Governor in exchange for a reduced sentence, providing he can convince his gifted son to play for the Governors’ alma mater.
The highlight for us was the one on basketball game that Denzel had with his son (Ray Allen), and even though we enjoyed the dramatic aspects of the film, we know we aren’t alone in fast forwarding to the climatic one on one hoops match. Actually, we probably weren’t the only ones rooting for Denzel.
