Like
Mike is about boy who lives in
an orphanage who wants more than
anything to be a famous NBA
basketball player. Calvin
(the main character) and
his friend Murph are
convinced they will never be
adopted and will stay at the
orphanage forever.
But that all changes when a pair
of sneakers turn up with Michael
Jordan’s initials in them.
Calvin of course starts wearing
the sneakers straight away and
whilst at a basketball arena
selling chocolates Calvin gets
to play in a half time entertainment
bit where the lucky person gets
to verse Tracy Reynolds - a
famous NBA player for the
Knights, at last Calvin gets
face to face with one of his
heroes!
When the whistle blows for him
and Tracy to verse each other,
Calvin beats Tracy easily
without trying. It would seem
that Calvin's new sneakers are a
little bit special and when the
Knights coach asks Calvin to
join his team he readily
accepts. After much love hate
going's on between Calvin and
Tracy who find themselves as
room-mates Tracy ends up
adopting Calvin and Murph
in the end and they have every
thing that they could possibly
ever want.
KATIE'S
VERDICT: I recommend this
movie for family viewing because
it is a great movie and I really
enjoyed watching it and also
LIKE MIKE puts what a lot
of kids want to be when they
become adults into a movie.
Like
Mike is released by Fox
Entertainment.
