Not The Best

I gave the movie 4 stars as it lacked a lot in the content and due to the poor audio or the lack of enunciation by the actors, it was difficult to understand what they were saying and if it was not for the subtitles, I would have been completely lost. The movie also lacked in vocabulary as it seemed the only words used were the N word and the F word.

People complaining it was slow need to realise it was a drama not an action movie

I liked this film, it was different. I've heard a few Freddie Gibbs tracks and into rap but maybe I'll check out some more of his tracks now, he was good at acting. The story follows a rapper who is fed up of the music industry and goes out to live on a farm but his manager keeps hounding him to do music. It spoke to me alot because I feel sometimes people need to just take a break to think and relax without being pressured into anything by others. Solid drama.

not the worst

Not the worst film to come out of 2021 but its close

you will need subtiltes to understand what is being undertood most the time which is not great when you have english audio but cant understand whats being said the scences are however beautifully done and filmed its just ashame they could not find better actors this was the biggest downfall and as for the farming scences i have yet to see a farmer farm the way it was protraded in this film.

Better than some would have you believe

I didn't have any problem understanding the dialogue in this film. I would suggest anyone who did may not be a native english speaker.

I have seen farms run like this.

The actors were top notch. Anyone saying they weren't doesn't know what they're talking about. Just look at the imdb profiles of the actors.

I would maybe suggest that some people who have a problem with the actors and the film may have in reality problems with race.

Okay but definitely a 1 time watch

Big Gibbs fan and I was anticipating this film, but it was completely different than what I expected. It's pretty slow in parts. I think the main issue is the story and the script, because the actors and camera work is on point. Respectable leading debut for Freddie.
