Bon film sur l'histoire vrai d'agents du baskets francais impressionnant

Synopsis

In Amiens, Jérémy spends his days behind the counter of a video rental store, far from the American courts he admires on VHS tapes. Meanwhile, Bouna is busy cleaning at Orly Airport, with no Wi-Fi or clear prospects in sight. Nothing indicates that they’re destined to break into the highly competitive world of professional basketball, let alone carve out a place for themselves there.

Community Reviews

Viewers are overwhelmingly positive about 'The American Dream', praising its heartfelt and inspiring portrayal of two underdogs making it big in the NBA as agents. The film's blend of humor, emotion, and real-life success story resonates well, with many highlighting the excellent chemistry between the lead actors, Raphaël Quenard and Jean-Pascal Zadi. The narrative's focus on perseverance and friendship adds depth, making it a feel-good movie that appeals even to those unfamiliar with basketball.

👍 Real-life success story with excellent lead chemistry.

👎 Some scenes may feel overly long.
