    Who let the dog out? The NBA that's who! And Little Bow-Wow will not disappoint. Feel good "Flubber" story that kids will really enjoy. Only question is "Where is the real Mike?"

    This movie was off the hook. If your a kid with alot hope in yourself and believe you can do it, also especially basketball this is the right movie to see.

    I really enjoyed it and it is an excellent movie for kids that like basketball and Lil Bow Wow. It is also a comedy and it is very kid-appropriate.

    Like Mike has the synthetically wrapped pseudo-charm of a perfunctory ''Flubber'' sequel.

    A soulless jumble of ineptly assembled cliches and pabulum that plays like a 95-minute commercial for NBA properties.
