    I completely disagree, I think it's perfect summer fun that's enjoyable if you forgive the fact that it's predictable as hell.  Any scene where he's climbing on the building or the crane is breathtaking.  I did go in with pretty low expectations though after Rampage disappointed me.

    I agree with this. I had a ton of fun with it.

    I was surprised with how much I enjoyed the film to be honest.  It has been legend (or a known fact, I suppose) that NBA players can’t act to save their life. Shaq in “Kazaam” and Michael Jordan in “Space Jam” are prime examples of that. In a surprising turn of events, Kyrie Irving has finally broken that curse for his performance carries the movie. It’s not just the unrecognizable face that is a factor to his performance, but his performance itself. Not only is he unrecognizable by his makeup but his delivery is on point, his comedic timing is amazing, his old man voice is convincing as hell. Even when he has to be dramatic, Irving delivers. He’s been playing Uncle Drew for 5 years now so he knows this character like the back of his hands. You often forget that Irving is under all of that makeup until he shows off his basketball skills.


    Hell, even Shaq gives a good performance and IT’S SHAQ! The film gets some great mileage out of him and provides a good character arc between him and Drew. Irving has great chemistry with the rest of his cast. Performance-wise, “Uncle Drew” might be the only movie where NBA stars can deliver good performances.

    I agree Kyrie’s acting was good. However, there have been some good acting performances from NBA players before. Lebron was good in Trainwreck and Ray Allen was good in He Got Game.
