Don't even rent

I will make an easy list to follow: -Terrible, cheesy acting -Terrible art direction and cinematography -ZERO chemistry amongst the characters -Story is underdeveloped and contrived -Silly way of politicizing America as a place where you HAVE to be a criminal to 'get ahead' -Stereotypes everywhere -Ending was absurd.

I liked It!!!

Loved it! Something new and different. This film is for an audience that most can not relate to. All that matters is that it was shot very well. 600+ people at the premier @ Cinema Village NYC.

Must see!

A gritty depiction of what's it's like growing up in a a third world Country and the pursuit of the so called American dream. I find the story relatable on many levels through to the sad the ending of achieving/chasing that desire for the dream at all cost.

A must see!

It's a Refresher to Urban Films

This film is a must see! You will be glued to the screen as each moment will become even more gripping. I would have liked to see the ending with a different twist. Watch it in theaters or on streaming platforms.
