Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member have to buy this movie, where I live u see alot of this type of life style. seems as if sum of my life growing up is part of this move Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Very good film. Jill Scott is really a diverse woman. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member For a Lifetine movie this wasn't bad. Of course it could have been gritter but for skimming the surface of alcholism and putting a nice spin on things it wasn't that bad. The ending did throw me and confused me, thought it made the film a little too full circle. The breif moments when Jill Scott was finally allowed to show some acting was quite enjoyable and made me wish there were more moments like this. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
