” doesn’t go the way you’d expect, and that’s a good thing. Here’s a Disney movie about a 5-foot-8-inch Chinese American high school basketball player who bets his rival that he can dunk by the end of the season. He gets his wish about an hour in , but there’s still a long way for the character to go — and grow — in a film that believes maturity isn’t achieved by shortcuts.
This being 2023, there are plenty of witnesses to the wager, recording everything on their camera phones while Chang loses his cool. The bet makes for an interesting twist on the classic Disney setup, in which lead characters clearly express the “I want” desires that drive them: Chang wants to dunk, but more than that, he wants to get back at the popular kids who underestimated him.
These two encourage their friend at first, helping him find a “coach” — a sketchy dude named Deandre who could’ve gone pro — and making flashy videos of Chang’s progress. But once their friend makes the shot, the glory and attention go to his head, and they pretty quickly decide they’ve had enough of “Chang 2.0.” It should be said that Renee makes Kristy far more interesting than a mere “love interest”; she’s nobody’s trophy.
