Autumn 1977. Derek Springfield is an 18-year-old misfit, who 5 years earlier was plucked from his home in the industrial outskirts of Leeds to attend Public School on a scholarship. He has just returned home at the end of his studies to await his Oxbridge results that he's hoping will result in his permanent escape. Life at home is awkward for the brainy lad and embarrassing for his working class family who can't relate: his feckless dad, no-nonsense mum and two older brothers, one a football hopeful and the other a distinctly dodgy acquirer of flash consumer goods.
Derek kills time by walking a no hope greyhound, Slapper, and loving out-of-his league Chrissie from afar. But under Derek's loving care Slapper gets faster - so fast she's stolen for her racing potential. Derek despairs at being completely alone once more but Chrissie gets the local community to keep watch. Slapper eventually escapes from her furious captors at an illegal flapper track. Exhausted, she somehow finds her way back and is reunited with Derek who tries to nurse her back to health his bedroom without his family finding out.
Derek, Chrissie and Slapper disguise themselves to avoid the dognappers and try their luck at racing her at a proper dog track. The dognappers and all the Springfields converge on the stadium for the exciting climax.
Its also the day Derek's results are due...
哪怕是合家欢电影看到这种烦人小男孩依然想打死
3.5/5 家庭亲情的文戏部分还挺不错的，小Adam可爱。不过反派塑造和最后决战太拉跨了，影响整体观感。喜欢《回到未来》或者小贱贱的尚可一看。
字母哥的经历实在太有故事可以写了。
不得不说黑人的家教环境真好，“孩子还小无法看清未来，有个好的父母，他会帮你看清未来。”这是多少家庭需要学习的。不得不说一部好的电影，真的可以吸粉很多，“字母哥”传奇还在继续。不得不说天赋还是次要，家庭环境还是第一位，所以一代球星，二代多为庸才。
That's why we fall . We fall to get back up .
更像是纪录片形式的片子、剧情有张力有感染力的、很感动！！
GA是位伟大的球员，那个真正把family and loyalty贯彻一生的男人。天赋不会给你刀刻般的肌肉，但奋斗会，希望扬尼斯继续追逐伟大。
演这个贫嘴的好笑的身材好的爆炸的贱男人，总要有个尽头吧。
为什么看过的人那么少？
从非法移民子女到nba首轮秀，这个过程就已经是传奇，但真正的传奇还在后面。竞技体育有各种不堪，但确实是实现梦想的好渠道。希望看到更多这样的励志故事。
为什么看过的人那么少？
把这部电影定义成《传记》是不合适的。
看完之后，我给了我媳妇一个能压断肋骨的拥抱。
迪士尼制作的俗套体育题材励志故事。“字母哥”能成功，经历肯定比这惨多了…
来自未来的自己，拯救过去年轻的自己以及和自己父亲，最为熟悉的小贱贱。
从四兄弟挤在一张床上，
Why so serious? 一看就是Shawn Levy会拍出来的电影啊！小男孩挺灵的，虽然这样的电影发挥空间有限，但还是挺喜欢的。最后居然还挺感人。
非常好。让我想起一本书《你当像鸟飞向你的山。》
情节比较没头脑，偶尔煽情偶尔碎碎念，冲着Mark Ruffalo看的，特典型的Netflix制作
为什么看过的人那么少？
