Love and Basketball 2000 Watch Free in HD

Quincy McCall and Monica Wright grew up in the same neighborhood and have known each other since childhood. Their love-hate relationship lasts into high school, with Monica's edge and Quincy's top-dog attitude separating them, except when Quincy's parents argue and he climbs through Monica's window to sleep on the floor. As Quincy and Monica struggle to make their relationship work, they follow separate career paths though high school and college basketball and, they hope, into stardom in big-league professional ball.

Time Out

Stylishly shot and bursting with visual and sexual energy, this is confident black women's film-making and an eloquent tribute to the girl with the permanently grazed knees -- and about time too.

Sight and Sound

It's a fine example of a conventionally made picture which follows all the rules yet still emerges as fresh and original.

Common Sense Media

Good romance, but strong sexuality for a PG-13.

Variety

The pic is so well directed and lead performance by Sanaa Lathan so charismatic that audiences will overlook the script's flaws and root for the central duo.

Reeling Reviews

Thanks to Spike Lee's production company for giving a talented newcomer a good start.

Globe and Mail

An unusual but engaging mix of the overwrought and the understated, a picture that, at two hours plus, keeps threatening to overstay its welcome and yet always pulls us back into its conversational orbit.

The surprise element here is that the film takes Monica's career, and her love of the game, as seriously, probably more seriously, than it does Quincy's.

Satisfying, enjoyable and smart.

New York Magazine/Vulture

Mawkishly heartfelt, but actress Sanaa Lathan performs as if she were lit from within.

San Diego Metropolitan

Prince-Bythewood, a first-time feature filmmaker out of UCLA's film school, tells a story that is at once warm and heartfelt -- and often funny as well.

Sacramento News & Review

This romantic drama from writer-director Gina Prince-Bythewood is well-acted.

Chicago Reader

Told largely from the point of view of the woman, this career-versus-love story still develops the perspective of the man persuasively, as Sanaa Lathan and Omar Epps reveal their characters' motives with nuances of expression that transcend the dialogue.
