- Critics' reviews
-
-
"It drags in places, becomes repetitive and could use a more rigid hand in editing, but it also has a kind of pleasing earnestness that would be lost in a more sophisticated effort."
-
"What's almost as impressive as James's talent on the court is his poise and character."
-
"Devoted fans of the game, and especially of LeBron James, will love More Than a Game. The skeptical and the curious may find themselves wanting more."
-
"A superb, slam-dunk documentary about young boys achieving personal and team goals on the basketball court."
-
"It's an inspiring tale not just for lovers of basketball, although the games featured are so thrilling and tense that it's a challenge to remain sitting placidly in one's seat."
-
"Really, it's just an extension of the LeBron James brand, released to coincide with a book on the same subject and designed to explore the star's humble roots even while further buffing his galactic glitter."
