Sweetwater | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

The direction, acting, script and production team are all in play, but nothing scores.

It seems tailor-made for an audience that may not want to see whatever the confrontational or provocative version of this story might look like.

Sweetwater could have been an inspirational biopic about a groundbreaking basketball player. Instead, the movie is a stale cesspool of awful dialogue, corny scenarios, and problematic racial condescension that depicts greedy basketball racists as heroes.

An insult to Clifton’s legacy, one so blatant that everyone involved should be embarrassed.

What begins with a frame recalling “Driving Miss Daisy,” unfortunately, quickly descends into “The Legend of Bagger Vance.”
