The Broken Rose

This movie had my emotions all over the place. First I'm excited that this was created by the black community and not only that it tells the hard truth of what black American women and men go through. It shows how black men end up in certain positions whether it's good or bad, and it shows the hard truth about the foster care system. The main thing it shows is the struggle and what it is for majority of black women in America. Are there hard scenes in the movie? Yes, but it shows real ness. It time to stop sugar coating things and bring the truth out. I mean 13 Reasons had some really hard scenes in it and this movie is not as hard as that lol. But it still gets the point across. However, the part that took me out and I think most people wouldn't see or choose not to see is the corruption in our police departments. So yes I'm happy that someone has finally spoken out about the truths behind this lifestyle. Thank you to those who produced this movie and to the actors that showed how it is in life. You guys did an amazing job and I pray this movie goes far.

This is okay, definitely not an 8.3/10! The story is very predictable and the acting is mediocre. Is it me or does the color keep changing throughout the movie? The person that did the color grading on this is obviously inexperienced.

Filmed well, good cast, weak script, all predictable, glorifies violence, prostitution. Manipulation sys heavy in prostitution; it's been done before. Same tired foolish woman. Same tired foolishness. It enough character development to care about the main characters. I'm watched it but can't recommend it.

...had me in the first ten seconds. If you know anything about or anyone who knows about foster care, being abandoned or being abused, this one hits home. It was well-written and suspenseful. I stayed up way past my bedtime trying to see the end but I could not take my eyes off of these characters. Great character development for Rose and her other friend but that ending... I can't spoil it for you but you won't be let down.

This is a job well done to the Bay Area film community! It is so great to see amazing actors tell a story that is true for some many individuals. Everyone's story is worth being told. I look forward to up coming projects from the lead actors, Jazmin and Evan. I'm sure this production company has much more in store for us.
