This movie was awesome. Hands down. Whoever did the writing was really on point. Very very good performance by Meek Mill.

While the limited budget shows, and some lines are delivered very amateurishly, overall this film was well executed and the acting was better than you see in a lot of independent films. The writing was incredible and true, the dialogue believable and did not seem out of place to the setting. Locations were well-thought-out, and casting was well-done. The practical and special effects of the scenes were very realistic. The story carried me with it, the characters made me care about their stories, and the surprises took me by surprise. Well done.

Personally, I could have done without a lot of the swearing and excessive use of racial slurs, but that is true to the setting. It would be like telling you a holocaust film contained too much anti-semitism for my taste. I admire the writer(s)/director for keeping that language in the film, though sometimes hard to hear. Often the truth is. I would advise viewers to be aware that there is a significant amount of violence and foul language in the film. Sex is suggested, but not shown graphically.

Recently divorced Monica Gordon moves from Harrisburg to Philadelphia which is a lot like Harrisburg without the cows. Her teen daughter Nicole (Nafessa Williams) makes friends with girls who date gang members and becomes privy to a murder her mom is prosecuting. The film incorporates rap/hip-hop which rhymes Rocky with cocky and use the word "Philadelphia" a lot. Nicole falls in love with Mike (Marvin Warner) whose brother was the first victim.

The story is told in eight 10-12 minute chapters from BET rated TV-14. The bad language cut out with far too many awkward silent moments, although there are times when you get a partial f-bomb. The story held my interest, the acting being acceptable for TV viewing.

Like most TV films, the story doesn't go too deep.
