If I Can't

This is one of the best movies ive watched in a long time. It was so good I had to search the director to find some of the other movies SHE directed. The design the style the culture was so reflective of African American pop culture. Mena Monroe you are talented. I felt like I knew each character personally. I even stopped midway through the movie to see how many minuntes were left because I didn't want it to end. Lol. The actors were amazing. For a long time i've been hesistent to watch African American films because of past experience they were either low budget with a terrible story line or high budget with no substance. This move is a masterpeice had me on the edge of my seat. Its up there with the Belly's and State Property type movies.

I'm not going to lie-I usually avoid independent Black films over 90 minutes. If a story can't be told within that time, it often has pacing issues, and this movie is no exception, running 1 hour and 49 minutes.

That said, it's a good movie overall. Mena Monroe plays Harlem, a woman living her best life until tragedy strikes. She returns home and gets involved with a no-good man, played by Tristin Fazekas.

The names Harlem Giles and Scott da Rock caught my attention-maybe a nod to Cam'ron Giles and DJ Scott La Rock?

Crystal The Doll and Cierra Smith deliver solid supporting roles. The storytelling could have been paced better, but overall, it's worth watching.

Trigger warning: This film contains graphic scenes, including sexual violence.

This movie was a little too much for me watch, because I can not relate even as being African American. However, it makes me appreciative for my upbringing.

The plot of the movie could actually be based on a true story with a little extra added, because I have seen stuff like this on the news that regards family violence.

Normally, whenever I watch a movie I can like predict what's going to happen but this movie was unpredictable. I felt a little traumatized at the ended and cried.

I won't criticize the cast acting or anything because it's Tubi and it's FREE! Heck! I thought about making a Tubi movie once and I never acted a day in my life. Overall, I think all of the cast members did really well.

This was one wild ride for absolute sure. When this movie was recommended to me earlier today I had no idea what I was in for. I didn't know I was going to want to scream, cry and throw up by the end. For an indie film of its kind it is extremely well done and well acted-too well at times! The main character goes through so much and at the beginning she isn't entirely likable-but by the end you just want to hug her and protect her! Mena does such a good job with the character development! The guy who plays Scott has traumatized me for life and let me tell you- I am not easily traumatized! To me, movies like this are scarier than horror films. Brace yourself for this one folks. I hope to see them all in many more successful projects!!

This was the worse movie or can I call it that. It had no true storyline. The main character/ lead went from a loving wife to a hoe and I still don't understand how.

All the time I kept wondering why would they cast this girl as the main lead...then I realized she's the one flipping the bill. Acting is definitely not her calling.

The transitions from scene to scene were bad; the characters and the relationships were very undeveloped. The plots and motives made no sense.

All the women had the exact same body, and very sexualized. The movie used language of 2020's but supposed to be set in the 2000.

I can't...
