I appreciated how it delve into "mental health"... It was depicted realistically on screen and was very much had relate-able characters. Great job by the Director

S/O to the legend T.C Carson, as well as the cast that actually looked very good on screen. As for the handling of the subject matter, personally I think it is very insensitive and crude to have this movie exist, while as an African-American community, we strive for PROPER representation and dialogue surrounding the mental health sigma.

This movie essentially waters down a serious diagnosis, gives an unrealistic treatment scenario and ends up having the viewer borderline scared of a black man with the particular disorder.

What about the spectrum? What about true long term community support? And the resolution at the end served no true help towards a person who may be looking at this film to gain a shred of hope for understanding.

This film set the conversation back. Significantly. I wish Mr. Carson had spoken up more in the development because his efforts were dually noted as a compassionate and well spoken therapist.

However, overall this film is a lewd portrayal of what many black men facing this affliction or anything similar face. If you're watching this for educational purposes...please don't take it to heart and search for a different example.

I am ultimately surprised. This movie started off slow but made up for it in the end with the complicated twist. I think they did a really good job of Showing how complicated Bipolar disorder can really be. I think after this movie Peoples Eyes will be wide open from the truth. Finally someone has shown light on a sickness to often down played and over looked. The cast ...did a really good job.

So happy to see a movie that so directly addresses the issues associated with mental illness. And I appreciate the end message of: beyond medications & therapy, it's primarily an issue of ACCEPTANCE, which is especially hard for a newly diagnosed young person to grapple with. Kudos to all involved with this project.

Although I understand that it may be a hard watch, it is relatable for the fact that this is someone's situation. I know someone personally just like the main character and watching this really helped me to understand their circumstances and train of thought a little more.
