Coach Ken Carter played by Samuel L. Jackson agrees to become basketball coach for Richmond high school. He serves as a mentor and a role model to the boys as he tries to mould them. The film is complete with several inspirational and touching speeches from the coach to the boys to get the audience interested in the film.
There are scenes like the relationship between one of the players and his girlfriend and a scene where the boys sneak out to go to a party but not much else in terms of building the characters of the basketball players.
Also nothing really stands out about the story as being a great idea as the film mostly consists of Coach Carter either inspiring or discipling the boys for games.
Plus I suppose the film has an uplifting message about education which is a plus point. So even though it could have been better it is a good watch.
Score- 6.5/10
