      Nola Never heard of this movie but it was surprisingly good. Kept my attention. Actually watched it twice. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/08/23 Full Review Audience Member I watched this movie and it was an on the edge of your seat movie. It is a must see movie for all adults and young teens who are interested in the gangster, drug dealing, wanna be hard life style. This will make you think twice about the lifestyle you want to lead and live. This is supposed to be based on a true story, but I couldn't find out anything about the incident in the Detroit press in 2004. Be careful whom you trust and call your friend. After watching this movie you will be skeptical of everyone especially you own family. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Not a bad movie, just not that entertaining. You'll recognize a few actors from the film Paid In Full starring in this film. The movie is about an attorney who doesn't want to practice law anymore until his sister insist that she needs help to prove her boyfriend Big Boy aka Trick Trick is innocent. And that's when the cover up begins. The action is slow. The story is mediocre. It's based out of Detroit. Mentioning Joy Road & 7 Mile. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I embrace black actors..True hustlers!! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Wow!! A rare look at "hard knocks urban area grit" seldom seen in films!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member A movie u want to watch again and again!!!!
