Friends of the cast must have wrote the reviews. Awful film.

This is not a simple story, well I guess it is, but it has so many subtle issues weaving in and out and the characters are so understandable and real and all living their real lives. I cried during the film, but not sure why.. maybe it made me feel for the trivial things that an adolescent girl was going through, through the eyes of that girl such that they were no longer trivial, but engulfing. Yep, there's Islam, but it is neither promoting nor derrogating it, nor even making a religious point.. just showing that we're all navigating our way through various thoughts and feelings. A beautiful cast, with acting that just fit the story effortlessly. So real and sensitive to the love that each of us bear in our heart. I'm sure the pace, filmography, score and acting all played into this brilliant subtle and touching film. I can't say at times it seemed slow, but it was just part of how we felt these people's lives. If Tyler Perry was an intellectual genius, and had an artistic film crew, maybe he could have made something similar to this, but really, this is a unique director who I'll look out for in the future. Thanks for the experience.

About a girl transitioning into a muslim lifestyle after her mom converts to Islam. typical family drama that delves into relationships highlighting her insecurities, trials and tribulation.

This movie challenges what religion is. Faith vs Religion. Faith is what this young girl is exploring right from the start of her spiritual journey. Not the norm. Religion is the three headed monster she's up against. Although it has a good coming of age plot, I feel the greater good is found in what the parent character learns. True, religious practice provides a consistent element to life, you can't expect someone new to this world to grasp the holiness or wisdom of conformity.

The idea of the good but it was poorly executed. The story line of jade was good but almost everything else was played wrong. There is some contradictions and misinformation to the point where you can't defend the movie. I think the director/writer didn't know much information about the religion and or practices of it. If not it doesn't show on the story on this movie.

You can't leave every mistake to fixed by the imagination of the viewer as there was many. If it was a few points here and there then sure, but that wasn't the case.

The movie also is not clear on the main point that it was trying to send.

This movie dragged and dragged. Should have watched paint dry.

I spend most of my time on my phone. Luckily didn't pay to watch it.

This story is a fresh coming of age story that I've been waiting for! It meant so much to see a young woman of color go through these complex challenges with identity and yet still see her beauty inside and out be highlighted throughout the film! I greatly recommend for everyone to see this film, especially young women of color. This film is for you.

This was a beautiful film with rich and three dimensional characters in both the Black and Muslim communities. I was fortunate enough to view it at Oakland's Matatu Festival. I wish more films like these were shown in theaters. If you want to view it, have your local theaters request it as it will not get the play of major motion films. I cannot wait to show this to my daughters. If they were excited to see well rounded characters in Black Panthers, they will love more realistic characters who look like them in a quality film.

Touching And we'll casted movie. Lovely score and cinematography. Pacing is fairly quick and keeps viewer engaged.
