Sure-fire heart-warmer: lively, funny yet emotion-charged and uplifting.Full Review

Kevin Thomas
Los Angeles Times

I don't want to sell Like Mike as something it's not. It's a cash-in, all right - just better written, more tightly edited, sharply performed, and a little more heartfelt than most.Full Review

Ty Burr
Boston Globe

The movie overcomes its lack or originality in the setup by making good use of its central idea, that a pair of sneakers could make a kid into an NBA star. This is a message a lot of kids have been waiting to hear.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Appealing movie, one of the summer's pleasant surprises.Full Review

Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle

This Flubbery fantasy won't win any prizes for elegant craftsmanship or originality, but it's entertaining, good-natured and a slam dunk to be a hit with young kids.Full Review
