Face à un scénario banal et prévisible, véritable avalanche de clichés, et une réalisation éminemment générique, difficile d'être captivé par Just Wright de Sanaa Hamri.

Featuring an entirely black cast and revolving around basketball, Just Wright will likely appeal to a primarily African-American audience, but it's a truly universal story, providing the same sappy, obvious satisfaction as something like 27 Dresses. There's not a drop of originality in it, aside from perhaps the tomboyish lead character, but giving yourself over to Just Wright is more rewarding than you might think.

Conventional in every way save for the coupling at its center, "Just Wright" largely succeeds as a handsomely mounted showcase for Queen Latifah, as well as some well-shot basketball footage, even if its guilelessly upright characters can often steer it toward blandness.
