    People Reviewing this are way too butthurt

    All the people judging and reviewing this negatively seem like those super sensitive types of this pathetic sensitive world we now live in. The movie was good and who cares if she was a Nickelodeon star, who cares about the color of the director's skin. This story is telling an experience that someone went through. It's unique. I was expecting it to be bad, but it's actually good.

    Unfavourable reviews from petty youths?

    Not going to lie, I do love a bleak movie and more than anything this film demonstrated the lack of glamour in the world of pimps hustling to make a buck. Keke Palmer's Wednesday is conflicting and hard to love but she rolls out the part beautifully, Hayley Ramm's long suffering Nikki is also a beautiful character eliciting so much emotion as a girl doing whatever she needs to keep her 'momma' happy and that dream alive. Vanessa Morgan as Destiny is by the numbers and Aunjanue Ellis as Wednesday's mother draws comparisons with Monique's stellar turn in 'Precious'

    But the standout for me was Edi Kathegi's amazing run as the unhinged, merciless Psycho Pimp, Kenny! Edi brought some chops.

    Whilst this isn't an Oscar winner it deserves a nod for its ambition and its deep characterisations maybe they could have spread that a little further but a good effort nonetheless.

    Heartbreaking.....

    Keke is incredible.....what a brilliant performance. Broke my heart to see her character's struggle. she brought her A game and so did the rest of the cast. I'm blown away by the simplicity yet complexity of the story.

    Bravo to the filmmaker!!!! two thumbs up!!!

    An Urban Female Superhero Tale. Attempts Gritty Realism.

    I saw this in the middle of the night in a hotel room. I have seen worse movies by happenstance. As far as the content, if you want to believe in the premise of this film, then you can and you will enjoy the experience. People that look for reasons to complain will tell you that it's an urban women's lib fantasy. Personally, I enjoyed it. It's a fine film, excellent for the budget.

    One Of The Best Movies Of The Year!

    This is a coming of age story based on how hustlers really live their life while they struggle & Keke Palmer played a good part in this role. It was well done & most of the actors were really great. So for all of you thats saying the movie was trash didnt really catch the reality of this movie & to me its one of the best films I will continue to watch. Well done Keke Palmer! Keep it up with your career!
