OK, first of all, this movie is absolutely terrible. The plot line sucks, and the characters are so dumb (like they are incapable of thinking) and unrealistic that they actually made me mad. Then, the main points are the same as the first Like Mike (finds shoes during lightning storm, becomes good, shoes break). It's really dumb. The screenplay writers should've made their own movie, not redone the first one. Oh, yes, and some of his basketball moves are impossible and would have people thinking he was a magician, NOT a great basketball player. And, he looks at his shoes every time he does something amazing. And, no one realizes his shoes are special. It doesn't even make sense. My advice to you is to stop with Like Mike 1, and not waste your time and money. I would never recommend this movie to anyone, and if they come out with #3, well, that just wouldn't be cool.

Awful movie hate every minute of this crap just plain awful

Like Mike 2: Streetball is a direct-to-video film sequel to Like Mike.It stars Jascha Washington,Kel Mitchell,Michael Beach,Brett Kelly,Micah Williams and Michael Adamthwaite. David Nelson directed it.

Jerome and his friends are very adept at street ball, but are no match for the older boys in their neighborhood. When the friends realize a street ball team called Game On is coming to town to look for talent, they practice extra hard.His dad rarely makes time for his son; after one of his short visits, Jerome is shooting some hoops and notices the pair of shoes from the first movie hanging up by a streetlight. Jerome retrieves the shoes, which are soon afterward hit by lightning, giving their wearer the ability to play as well as Michael Jordan. Now, as Jerome's newfound talents send him rocketing to street stardom and his swelling ego eclipses his youthful sense of wonder, it's up to the street-ball superstar's family and friends to show him what it really means to be a winner on the court as well as off.

Compared to other direct-to-DVD offerings, at least this sequel has an amusing plot, with decent performances and even a few laughs. While not as famous as Bow Wow when he starred in the original Like Mike, Washington is charming enough to carry the story of a young teen that just really wants to be great at basketball. Although it isn't an instant classic, this is the kind of light-hearted sports movie that will entertain and educate teens of some basic truths on and off the court: showboating and stealing your team's thunder isn't cool; friends should be forever, not just when it's convenient; and fathers and sons need each other's support and encouragement.
