By the numbers hood movie that covers all the cliche of hood movies. Only problem is this one is full of wokeness, politically correct language, and a play it safe strong female (at least attempt at it) lead. Sanaa Latham wrote this based on work of the same author of Hate You Give. Whereas that movie had something to say and had a strong supporting cast, this one has a bunch of characters no one cares about. It's like, they couldn't get those good actors from Hate you give to come back, so they hired the production assistants who had experience acting in church skits. When I heard the line: Latinx, I mean, really??? Even the writing is PC wokeness and laughable. Skip this garbage and see Hate You Give instead.
Good movie!
This film is not really about people of color alone; it is a universal theme for all races. I want to be successful, and i want to be the best of all time. These are very nice, but overly lofty goals. One only sets one's self up for disappointment when we aim too high. It is good to aim high, but a term such as ONE of the best in any field is more than enough of a goal for anyone in any field. This is why gifted children fail so often; they set unrealistic goals which eventually result in disappointment. I am sure audiences will find the film entertaining, but it should not be held up as an example for inspiration; it is merely a daydream.
