Description:
From New York, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and North Carolina, this follow-up to Ball Above All takes it to the streets to bring home more hard-core footage of rim-grabbing dunks and legerdemain ball-handling and passing. Fast-forward through brief segments hosted by rapper DJ Whoo Kid about "Hoop Honeys," Kobe Bryant, and various product placements to get to the main event: awesome clips from playground contests, invitational tournaments, and prep games. As with Ball Above All, this approximately 45-minute video pulsates to an authentic rap and hip-hop soundtrack (obscenities edited), and there is gratuitous, albeit fleeting, T&A (no nudity). What it lacks in slick packaging and marquee superstars, Ballin' Outta Control more than makes up for in street cred, with footage of local heroes such as Sebastian Telfair and LeBron James, who astound with their Matrix-like moves on the court. --Donald Liebenson
