Audience Member It baffles me that nobody sees this documentary for what is really is - an epic humble brag of a film produced by a bunch of rich ladies who are using the projects across the street from their kid's school to highlight the class divide - or more precisely - remind themselves how well they have done in life by comparison. It's disgusting. What struck me throughout was the kids from the projects seemed to be thinking "what's the big deal again?". I know it's hard to believe, but the only thing that poor people envy rich people for is money. Most know they are happier and more at ease. They just lack funds. Trust me, this is coming from a rich guy. They don't need a Karen to use them as props for her film that she likely created just to prove to her husband that she isn't totally useless and doesn't just sit around all day.

In moments, you're seduced by the kids on both sides of the divides and are rooting for them. It's a great study of money and the role it plays in the lives of the generation. Both sides struggle to understand what it means to have and have not and what they could or should do about it. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Nevermind the infuriating subject matter of this excellent documentary, just watch this documentary for its 8-year old star Rosa. Should there be an award for best real live actress in a doc, she has my vote 10 times over. I don't remember the last time I saw such an incredibly adorable human being on screen. Highly recommended. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member The filmmaker misses the real point by dragging the poor kids into the castles across the street. Instead, the missed opportunity was dragging the rich kids into the projects. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
