People who enjoyed movies like How High or half baked, will also like this movie. It has some Funny dialogue by yours truly Mike Epps. Dont ecpect much but if your looking for a movie such as the ones mentioned then give it a shot.

There's this one scene where the characters are out of sync with the audio. First I thought they were doing it to represent that they were high but it wasn't. I thought TIP was a perfectionist but I don't think he was there in the editing room

"The Trap" (2019) is a semi-professionally produced comedy about an family owned restaurant based in Atlanta being run into the ground by Dutch, played by Mike Epps, through his immature neglect, only to be saved by Sonny, an up and coming cook in the Big Easy, played by rapper T.I.. Through Dutch's bad decision, a new recipe is created for the fried chicken that ultimately could get the eatery shut down and everyone arrested. The film reminds me of some of the less than bright people I grew up with providing a slight level of nostalgia. On the other hand, aside from the strong tie into family struggles and lessons, this film was a little rough. This film had many holes and more technical issues than I wish to count.

Some of the acting is pretty accurate for the personas that portrayed them, but it may have led to the storyline dragging a bit too much. The film filled the "standard" 90 minutes but could have easily been cut down to help move the film along, but this isn't my biggest issue with the film. The sound syncing has points where is extremely off and blatantly takes me out of the story. There are also visual issues where, like in the hospital, the camera operator can be seen. I originally had hi hopes for this film thanks to some names in the comedy and hip- hop world, but I was let down. Overall, this film isn't that good because the quality is a major misfire, but I still enjoyed it.

I know what this was supposed to be a fun, light-hearted, just for laughs type of movie that you can watch with a group of friends and have a good time, like the classic Friday. But this aint it!!

It popped up on my suggestions on Netflix and I saw T.I. and Epps was on it, so I clicked. They've done some really good and funny stuff so I know a movie with them would be decent. I was wrong.

I enjoy a good-bad low budget movie, with sub par acting and plot, but this was all over place. The overacting was strong on this one. And you can tell a lot of the dialogue was off script, which was supposed to make it funnier, but it would end up just going and going to the point where it got awkward. Even the great Loretta seemed like an amateur. Dialogue and direction is that bad.

There are times it's obvious people were simply added to give the actor something funny to say, but it goes nowhere.

This movie had potential...I liked the premise. Better handling of the script, better supporting actors and keeping a tighter leash on the dialogue could've taken it from a F movie to the B level that it wanted to be.

I judge a movie by how easily I can recreate it. I could've rounded up a couple of friends and video taped a quick story just like this one. There was nothing special about it other than it's cast. A for effort. F for the fact that they squandered all of the talent they had to work with.

If you're 13 years old or just looking for a movie you want to play in the background of a party just to have something on, this is perfect.

Wow, this movie if i can call it a movie, is so bad, it made me make a review, first ever. Just added on Netflix, seen 5 mins and gave up. I like Mike Epps, he is a funny guy, he plays great, but this is some D class video, cant be called a movie. I guess the budget was low, as low as the people density in this video, which seems filmed in a forgotten town ... Anyway, very bad movie, dont worth watching.

You can see a camera and cameraperson's hand in the hospital scene. Wow. WOW

I was so surprised this movie was so bad because Queen Latifa and T.I are in the movie and are really good actors. The movie looks really low budget and just isn't funny. They tried to make a good movie but nothing came together right

One of the worst movies I've ever seen. Horrible writing, acting, directing! Jesus!!!

This is a movie for the culture. It's got some of our favorites like Mike, Loretta, Monique, & DC. This was before all the drama with Tip went down, so I understand some of the bad reviews and ratings.

The trap is a movie about a man who is a top chef who is given an opportunity to start a restaurant in Los Angeles. However, instead of opening that restaurant, family is prioritized which leads to another opportunity being pursued instead. It's something we in the culture can relate to because how many of us have had dreams we wanted to pursue, only for our path to be determined, delays, or detoured by family. It's not a bad thing, but it's a reality. The good part in this movie, howeve, is that everyone wins.

Although, I liked T.I. better in other movies. This movie was funny so for that reason I gave them a high rating.

The Trap is a blaxsploitation film in the vein of Friday, The Wash, Pootie Tang, etc. -- so expect the imdb score to be low due to all the hate voting.

Truth is, if you're looking for a black-casted comedy, The Trap is pretty standard Mike Epps fare. It's got plenty of laughs and the usual racially-charged comedy (and the usual weed jokes throughout). But The Trap also has a lot of spirit, and TI does a great job as the head of the fried chicken joint. There's a sense of comraderie in The Trap that isn't in other Epps comedies.

Everything is stereotypical here (as are all Mike Epps films), and that's part of what make Epps films tick the way that they do. Don't go into this expecting some form of highbrow and erudite humor, and you won't be disappointed. Go into this expecting a decent popcorn flick that'll harkon you back to the Next Friday days, and you'll be more than content.

A solid 6/10 when comparing it to other blaxploitation genre greats--definitely worth a watch for likeminded individuals.

Horrible acting, bad story line, revolting directing. There is no acting or directing difference between emotions, the sound is irritating. I honestly don't think there's a worse movie out there.

Wow. T.I.? Really? Wtf! Who directed this crap? Sorry to that person fpr what I'm about to post...quit. Quit now before you become remember for this caliber of movie. Low budget is all good but I couldn't even give this movie any more of my time. Not one thing in the first 30 minutes was engaging, I just stopped paying attention which led me to this site and my post. Netflix needs to hear about this foolery and the fact that Netflix added this movie has ruined any street cred this person may have had. Shame!

This rachet story about weed fried chicken, embarrassed me on so MANY levels! As a black woman; Atlanta resident and a medical professional! That pathetic hospital side story was GOD AWFUL! A doctor discussing the cost of treatment!! Really!?!

There were so many mistakes that Stevie Wonder could SEE them!

I have seen better acting at the Funeral Home!!

This moving dumpster fire was DOA!! If I could have given it 10 negative stars I would! Note to Teyana Taylor, you have ONE character that you can play, foul mouthed ghetto hood rat! Take some ACTING lessons!!

Cameras showing, cameraman showing, repeated shots, terrible acting, terrible directing, everything is bad. Great for keeping you company while you do other stuff though.

Avoid it at all cost.Bad acting and racism against white people.

Not the best acting jobs TI or Queen Latifah have put on, however Mike Epps keeps the laughs coming. It is worth watching.

Ti is a very veryVERY BAD actor LIKE THE WORST ever!! along with dc. Everyone else did good. Story line boring and old. NOTHING about this is original .

Really good film, laughed so much, music in the background was also brilliant. Great acting from all cast.

Had some very funny scenes. I thought this a funny movie.

It is so bad that it is funny. Insanely bad acting

I rather watch a snail race a turtle before I ever watch this movie again. This movie was boring, lame and dull! Dont even waste your time watching this garbage.
