Will Calvin be able to keep hold of the magic shoes? Can The Knights win the playoff? Will he and his friends finally find parents? Roll Bounce (Dir. Malcolm D. Lee 2005): Full of the humour mild humiliation and bittersweet lessons of growing up this coming-of-age comedy from Malcolm D. Lee unfolds on the South Side of 1970's Chicago. Xavier (Bow Wow) and his wisecracking crew of friends rule the local roller skating rink but when it closes their summer looks to be an empty one. Reluctantly they head over to Sweetwater the glitzy rink across town where the rich kids skate and where the cocky Sweetness (Wesley Jonathan) presides over all as the unchallenged king of the floor. The boys are ridiculed upon their arrival and soon vow revenge at the upcoming competition for which they begin to hone their skills. Meanwhile X deals with his troubles at home as his mother has recently died and his dad Curtis (Chi McBride) struggles to make ends meet. The two attempt to understand each others' grief and help one another to move beyond it. X also makes the acquaintance of new kid Tori (Jurnee Smollett) a gawky girl with braces and a sharp tongue who tags along with the boys as an ugly duckling later to emerge a swan. Tori's rather attractive mum (Kellita Smith) attracts a great deal of attention on the block notably from two quick-talking garbage men (Mike Epps and Charles Q. Murphy in a hilarious bit part) and X tries to navigate his budding relationship with the seemingly-unattainable Naomi (Meagan Good). [show more]

Triple bill featuring three comedy movies. 'Johnson Family Vacation' (2004) stars comedian Cedric the Entertainer as Nate Johnson, a Los Angeles man estranged from his wife and three children - who decides to reconnect with his family by taking them with him on a road trip to Missouri for a big family reunion. En route, everything that could possibly go wrong does go wrong: his wife (Vanessa L. Williams) is suspicious of him, the children won't stop squabbling, the onboard navigation system on their expensive new mobile home goes into meltdown - not to mention a run-in with the law and an unfortunate encounter with a cement mixer. In 'Like Mike' (2002), Calvin (Lil Bow Wow) lives in an orphanage and desperately dreams of being adopted by a real family. When he discovers a pair of magical trainers another of his dreams comes true; the trainers lead to him being discovered by the trainer of an all-star team, which he begins to play for. But the headmaster of the orphange, Bittleman, is trying to stop Calvin from playing. Can he and his friends defeat Bittleman? 'Roll Bounce' (2005) is set in the late 70s, when roller skating to soul tunes and disco was a way of life for teen skater Xavier (Bow Wow) and his pals. But when their local rink closes, X and his crew must pull together as a team to try and win big money at a rival rink's Roller Jam skate off.
