    There are many better things to do with your time

    An 'outsider making their own way' gangsta movie, written and directed by newcomer GH Goba.

    Sadly, the inexperience shows being laced with cliché, mind numbing dialogue and embarrassingly poor camerawork. The stylistic choice to have a Film Noir narration approach falls flat as do the non-linear plot elements. Characters are unconvincing and shallow caricatures with no credible attempt to flesh them out or make them relatable.

    This could well have worked as an over-the-top comedy, but as any kind of serious crime drama it falls well short of acceptable.

    Hands down one of the best films I've watched this year

    Great cast ,great storyline, very entertaining it's definitely a must watch. I'll be watching it again.

    For this to be an independent film it definitely surpasses any expectations. The quality of the production is also amazing Also the sound track is amazing. Many known actors and actresses.

    Don't even rent

    I will make an easy list to follow: -Terrible, cheesy acting -Terrible art direction and cinematography -ZERO chemistry amongst the characters -Story is underdeveloped and contrived -Silly way of politicizing America as a place where you HAVE to be a criminal to 'get ahead' -Stereotypes everywhere -Ending was absurd.

    It's a Refresher to Urban Films

    This film is a must see! You will be glued to the screen as each moment will become even more gripping. I would have liked to see the ending with a different twist. Watch it in theaters or on streaming platforms.

    Fast paced, action filled

    The first act of this movie was set in Kingston and is beautifully shot and executed. The acting was real and authentic, and the set up was brilliant. The directors choices were amazing. I could watch the first act over and over. The rest of the movie does not disappoint either, all the way up to the jaw dropping end. I'm a huge fan of gangster movies and I put this right up there with the best of them.
