Hoops Dreams

I'm gonna have to say that Hooks seems to be far too critical of Black American cinema films in general. When she finds something good about a film, she manages to find about three more things that she finds the film at fault, such as the "overuse" of Black American stereotypes. Sure the film had Black Americans with a great love for basketball, but that was the point of the film. I'm sure that there are a great deal of people who have a love for basketball, black, white or otherwise. Sure it is not the perfect film for everyone, but then again, when has there been a perfect film?
