Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn reality, Willie Earl (Austin Scott) is actually about 5 years younger than Bayou, (Joshua Boone) who plays his younger brother, despite playing the older brother.
- GoofsWhen Bayou, Willie Earl, and Ira arrive in Chicago; the weather is warm or spring-like as indicated by the clothes being worn and the physical demeanor of the folks out on the street. However, there are posters announcing upcoming shows on February 9 and March 23 therefore it has to be winter in Chicago, and winter in Chicago has historically always been freezing.

Featured review
I am always skeptical about TP movies but this one was far better than the other ones in my opinion. Even though there were a few cons why I did not give this movie a 10, It is still an enjoyable watch.
Here are the reasons why I did not give it a 10.
Cons: Movie ended with missing parts that could've sent the movie to another level. The father's hate, where does it come from? If Bayou is someone else's son who is he?
The grandfather, yes we get it, he is depraved rapist. Why didn't Bayou do anything about it? And why is Leanne's mother so detached and evil? Couldn't they show us some dialogues between her and Leanne that made her this way?
Why is Leanne so selfish? As if she did not know that they could kill Bayou.
Why is Bayou's brother like that? Did something happened to him that turned him into an addict?
Lastly Why is Bayou so dumb? You know your brother hates you, you go and trust him around you while you are enjoying stardom. Why go back to the place that you know pretty well that they will kill you. Why couldn't he send someone down there and bring his mom to Chicago to live with him?
What type of life is he proposing to Leanne and his white son (which the skin tone is completely confusing btw).
Who is the old woman at the beginning of the movie? What happened to Bayou's people at the aftermath?
Nice try from Tyler Perry tho.
