I picked this film up randomly about 10 years ago, and have been watching it ever since. This honestly was the best independent film I have seen thus far, which was a surprise to me since I picked it up as an impulse buy for a low price. I was shockingly surprised at the honesty of the film, and the ability of the writer to remain sincere throughout the film. The film captured reality, and stayed away from a fairy tale ending. This was no typical, happily ever after film. The coloring of the movie was a daring move, and gives it an edge of originality over other films in this category, and I think portrays the film further as true, without any artificial components. A classic "hood" flick, however, the acting was superior for an independent film, and I was fully entertained throughout the entire picture. It was drama packed, with a bit of comedy sprinkled throughout. If you are looking for an honest, talented, entertaining movie to keep your attention through the entire picture, this is the way to go. 10 out of 10!!
