Futuresport Movie Review 1998

In 2025, Tre Ramsey (Cain) is the arrogant star of a popular violent sport that's a combo of skateboarding and basketball. Only the key game turns out to have more on the line than endorsements when terrorists take over the arena. Tre's mentor, and Futuresport creator Orbike Fixx (Snipes), suggests it's just a gigantic turf war and that matters can be settled by an arena match to the death. Caught in the middle is newscaster Alejandra (Williams), the woman Tre once loved and left behind.
