She soon finds that handling players is tough, fans are tough, owners are tough, and so on, but she's big enough to conquer them all with determination, smarts, and personality. The first half of the film is pretty cute as Goldberg's character makes the jump from opinionated spectator to the gal in the hot seat. But everything derails in the second half, which is mostly an op-ed piece about keeping pro-ball teams from moving out of their cities. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
 Rating:  - EDDIEi HAVEN'T WATCHED THIS DVD YET, BUT IT CAME IN ECXCELLANT CONDITION AND IT WAS SHIPPED WHEN IT WAS SUPPOSEDYoung Shirley TempleTO SHIP. Rating: - campy and predictablenot bad though. Good fun only as Whoopi seems to be able to pull off. And any age can watch it. Rating: - Childhood fave, still awesomeEddie (Goldberg) is limo-driver by day, but a die-hard Knicks fan by night (and all the time).

Of course, now she's got to deal with players who don't speak English, who spend practice dealing ...

Leastwise when she had a starring role. Well, give her SISTER ACT, but that was followed by a string of critical and commercial duds--silly comedies mostly, but also schmaltzy dramas. She did acquit herself well in cameo roles for prestige directors like Altman, but overall, she struggled. Like Bette Midler before her, she was finding that her larger-than-life persona ... Read More Rating: - WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR...This is a very enjoyable comedy, starring the irrepressible Whoopi Goldberg in the role of Edwina "Eddie" Franklin, the widow of a New York City police officer. Following in her late husband's footsteps, she coaches basketball for inner city kids. She is also the number one fan for the New York Knicks, a team that, despite the talent on it, can't seem to win a game. Eddie loves the team, no matter what, and can be seen high up in the rafters of every Knicks game, rabidly and raucously cheering them on. ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
