Sanitized

I have never seen such a ridiculous sanitized version of a "rough neighborhood" in my life. Absolutely comical. What a joke. I'm white and even I'm offended. Insulting to all. I don't know how this movie got made. Do not waste your time. I want to know who the target audience was. Who exactly is this movie supposed to appeal to? It says at the beginning that it's based on true events. I would say very loosely based on true events and that's being generous. Nothing about this movie rings true. Not on any level. It's tone deaf and condescending. Why and how do movies like this get made? It's baffling.

So True to REAL life

I found this movie very true to life in most of the major cities in the US. And it's getting worse - pretty brave people moving into the war zones!

Good movie

How can people say this is racist offending black people when movies like boyz n tha hood, menace ll society etc are out showing black people the same as this!! I think its a good light hearted movie

Racist, offensive, inappropriate for church

This was so incredibly racist/offensive. All of the antagonists were African American stereotypes,and where no where near realistic. I don't understand how this is am appropriate movie, let alone a Christian one. Not to mention they also had a lot of "Mexican" stereotypes as well as Asian stereotypes. None of the people I've met have been in, known, or seen people of these ethnicities in any of those situations. Personally, I have seen more poor non-poc fit these descriptions than poc themselves. It is apparent that this movie was written/produced by someone who wasn't a person of color. Even if the movie wasn't so incredibly offensive, the production, plot, and character development is horrible.
