Semi-Pro was such a funny movie. The whole movie was extremely funny. It's not easy to make me laugh in movies either so when it does it has to mean it is a funny movie. Will Farrell was very good and did everything perfect for this part. Woody Harrelson also brought a lot to this movie. Andre Benjamin keeps shining in each and every movie he plays in. He will only get better and better as the more movies he plays in. The thing that made the movie even better than it was is becuase it is rated R. It had a lot of adult humor and lots of stuff for teens. They talked a lot about sex and some very dirty things. It was still done it very good taste despite it being rated R and the dirty humor. It also taught us to be able to play are hearts out and give it everything we got even if we dont have anything to play for. From the very start of this movie till the end it was hilarious. I laughed my butt off at a few different scenes. It will most likely have you laughing hard. That is if you like comedy movies with lots of funny sex related humor. If you can't handle some sex related talks then this is not a good movie for you. One main reason I ended up seeing this movie was because it was about basketball. The whole story pretty much revolved around basketball in one aspect or another. It was about Jackie Moon trying to save his ABA team from being terminated by the end of the year. The NBA is going to take four of the best teams from the ABA to go to the NBA at the end of the season. Jackie Moon is trying to get his team to be one of those four teams. It was cool how the movie had a 70's or 80's story to it. It made it even better taking place in the older days. In those years they didn't even no what an alley-oop was which was very funny. Overall I thought this movie was laugh out loud funny. It should be seen by anyone who likes comedy movies.
