Product Description:
Teenage rap sensation Lil Bow Wow makes his feature film debut in this "surefire heart-warmer" (Los Angeles Times) about an orphan boy named Calvin who lives out his dream of playing in the NBA?with a little help from a magical pair of sneakers! Soon after he laces up the mysterious high-tops, Calvin's amazing basketball skills land him a spot on the Los Angeles Knights team. In addition to hitting 25-foot jumpers and throwing down rim-rattling slam dunks, the small superstar sets his sights on another dream...having a family. But first he and his pals must defeat Bittleman, the orphanage headmaster trying to sabotage Calvin's career and dash his hopes of ever being adopted. Filled with high-flying fun and hilarious hijinks, Like Mike will have your whole family cheering into overtime!
Amazon.com:
As its title suggests, Like Mike is a rousing wish-fulfillment fantasy for any kid who's ever dreamed of soaring for a game-winning slam dunk like basketball legend Michael Jordan. It's fun but formulaic, beginning when 14-year-old, 4-foot-8 orphan Calvin Cambridge (played by appealing teen rapper Lil' Bow Wow) dons a magical pair of hand-me-down Nikes with the enticing initials "M.J." written inside. Next thing you know, Calvin's the new star of the L.A. Knights, an instant NBA celebrity taking his team to the playoffs alongside favorite teammate Tracy Reynolds (The Best Man's Morris Chestnut), with a bevy of villains (including reliable weirdo Crispin Glover) trying to steal his thunder. With Jerry Maguire's Jonathan Lipnicki as a fellow orphan, and a solid supporting cast including Eugene Levy, Robert Forster, and two dozen NBA stars, Like Mike is schmaltzy and predictable (and, surprisingly, there's no cameo from Jordan himself), but its sweet, good-natured quality will captivate kids from start to finish. --Jeff Shannon

Bow Wow plays Calvin, Morris Chestnut is the hottie who plays the foster parent for Calvin, Brenda Song is the Chinese female who befriends Calvin at the home while Jesse Plemons is the geeky, introverted yet very grounded white boy with glasses who gives everyone the best insight the movie holds. They (the preteens) all seem to have this unbreakable, unshakable, special bond that no one can dismember or join.
Calvin runs into these shoes one day (They were Michael Jordan's while he ... Read More

See bow wow when he was lil bow wow! This movie was a great movie! It has a moral message, huge actors and it's hilarious. This was one of my favorite movies when I was younger and I can still watch it. It's a great family movie. I have nothing bad to say about this movie at all! Check out the prices! They're such a bargain. If you like this movie, here's the 2nd movie; Like Mike 2 - Streetball. It wasn't as good as the first, but Kel Mitchell is in it! And it was hilarious also! Here's another one ... Read More

This movie went down at #2 on my top ten worst movies list. This movie is devoid of all things good and fails in everything. The story sucks, the characters suck, the humor sucks, and the special effects are very cheesy. Not even the hot cheeleaders will elicit any excitement because of how bad this movie is. Don't buy it if you value your soul and don't want to lose it to the poisonous suckage. If you watch it have someone break the disc shortly afterwards and call a priest to perform an excorcism ...

This one surprised me. I expected it to be a little more hard, having Lil' Bow Wow as its main star. But BW, as I like to call him now, surprised me! He's a hell of an actor, and has a great career ahead of him.
As the older rappers pull the young kids into their "good 'ol boy" network, I hope that the quality doesn't start to take a dive, as it did, when this behavior was prevalent in the White corporate world. But given that I have not seen that yet, I hope that BW continues in his career ... Read More

This is a full entertainment recommended for all family. A pleasant fairy tale adapted to modern times in which Cinderella transforms into a orphan boy who dreams and dreams until the hand of fate will intervene by him to make his dreams come true.
A sympathetic movie with a predictable end but that gets its aim.
