Common still needs work on his acting skills. The message in this movie is not a positive one especially for children. He teaches this kid how to do everything under the sun that is illegal which will eventually lead him to the same fate as his uncle. Sorry I wasted a download on this one. Definitely not worth the download or the two hours of my life that I will never get back again.

Luv was star studded and the motives had intentions.at times the movie appeared to be predictable and a little truth stretchy, but in all a good movie

This was/is a great movie for all people. Common really came through as a strong character that was very believable. The boy (Rainey) showed range and was a bit too quick of a study, which was/is understandable due to time constraints. Basically was a movie about the loss of innocence rather than coming of age. Great for teen boys and all adults The movie was engaging from start to finish. I'll definitely look to buy this one once it comes out on video!

Very well done film with a surprising number of well name stars. Good acting and writing. Pretty intense at times, smooth pace. I wish Common appeared in more films; he really is a good actor.

The story had amazing performances and the story had a lot of potential, though it was uneven at times. But definitely worth seeing, especially if you're an African-American man who wants to see a movie about the dangers of choosing a life of crime.
