Just Wright

Leslie Wright (Queen Latifah) is a die-hard basketball fan and physical therapist. After a chance meeting with her favorite player, Scott McKnight (Common), at a gas station, she is invited to his home for a birthday party. She takes her spoiled, beautiful godsister Morgan (Paula Patton) with her; while things fizzle between Scott and Leslie, things sizzle for Scott and Morgan. Scott soon suffers a near-career-ending injury, and Leslie is brought in to help him rehabilitate. I’m sure my love for basketball biased me, but Just Wright is a surprisingly sweet and charming little film. The two leads have good chemistry, and while most of the plot is highly clichéd, the film is done right.

Just Wright is not showing in any theaters in the area.
