I liked that this movie had some negative aspects to the main character's relationship. You can tell this movie had a certain budget to work with to get produced... but overall I loved the storyline.
Very impressive. It gives a bit of early Spike Lee's jittery cam style set in Brooklyn. It also is an honest tale of the black b boy gay culture whose narrative is brazenly missing in the LGBTQ film arena. The acting was great all around and if her role was longer rapper/talk show host Heather B who played a supporting role could have easily received an Oscar nod for Supporting Actress as her role of the caring auntie.
This movie may lose some points with timing and cinematography but it will be the stepping stone for many more mainstream same gender movies epitomizing loving relationships and meaningful friendships chronicling POC!
This is a great movie, and the story at the heart of it is very real. Seen a lot of LGBT+ content, some good, some very bad, and I would have loved to see these characters on a TV show, similar to Looking (2014) as I think they touched on quite a few different topics that are important to be discussed and have dialogue around.
There may have been some parts of the visual aspects that I did not always click with, and not sure of their part in the overall story being told, or their relevance. This may be due to not having read the book, but the film has stuck with me the next day after watching, which doesn't always happen with films.
All of the characters are absolutely gorgeous, which definitely kept my eyes interested, but I fear some of the negative feedback may be related to the staff on the film's private lives, rather than the film, the content, the actors' portrayals and the actual direction itself.
However you identify, I think there is a solid move here worth your time of day. I hope to see a lot of these actors in other roles, as well as other projects from the Director.

I have been waiting for the day when this novel would actually become a movie and here we are. It captured pretty much everything from the novel but brought it to present day. I found myself watching it at least 3 times so far. It was refreshing to see another aspect of the SGLBTQ+ communities instead of the standard stereotypical portrayal. I recognized a couple of the actors from TV and web series. My hope is that if this is hit that Jussie and Mr. Hardey will direct and produce another movie from the B-Boy Series. All I can say is thank you.
