Synopsis
The American Basketball Association is on the verge of collapse, and when a former NBA benchwarmer returns to his hometown of Flint, Michigan to whip his former team into shape for the playoffs, redemption is just a free-throw away in this period sports comedy starring Will Ferrell and Woody Harrelson. Penned by Old School scribe Scot Armstrong, Semi-Pro tells the tale of a 1970s-era basketball player who doesn't have much luck in the NBA, but vows to leave his mark on the sport by coaching the Flint Tropics to an unlikely victory in the biggest game of the year. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
