    Caught in the Trap

    Nineteen Summers avoids easy answers as it lays bare the stories of the young men profiled in this film about loyalty and vengeance, while teasing at the potential for a better life away from the streets. I thought the writing was gritty and fantastic. It's a good thing to be frustrated sometimes, because that reflects the reality of so many people born into a life of poverty, police brutality and limited options, so resisting the urge to craft a feel-good story in this context helps illuminate the injustices, while at the same time providing a nuanced record of the ramifications of the choices people make. In short, it's complicated and that's what is so real about the film.

    Cinematography and production value was fantastic, the performances were on-point and I think we'll be seeing more from this director.

    strong indie drama feels authentic

    Some really strong performances and strong story telling carry this indie film about a young man seeking a better life in the midst of a gang war.

    Fake reviews

    This movie started off cool and it seems like they ran out of money towards the middle story didn't make sense at times actually 94% of the time it didn't make sense like what was the point of half the story half the time it felt like things happened because it seemed like it was a good excuse for something major to happen

    Raw Movie

    Racism in the judicial system. Great storytelling. Very raw and gritty which runs the message across as it should be. Real. Great watch! Recommended!

    compelling story worth a watch

    Good film. This is worth a watch. Director Rod Scott does a nice job telling the compelling and emotional story of a 19 year old De'Andres' journey to survive and find a better life. The odds are against him and his success and the film delivers in very real clarity. Everyone, not matter of their background, will be able to relate, or at least understand, the characters and situations. Many of the themes have been told in other movies but they play well here. Worth a watch.
