I always found IMDb a serious site but i begin to loose sight of that.
Of course that's not the flaw of the site or the makers/owners. But the sort of people that give a rating to a film or show doesn't say anything to me anymore.
Just read the handful of reviews on this and don't look at this absurd rating. This film has soul and emotion and beauty and art in it.
Don't gonna spoil anything. Just please , watch it. it's a great film with a warm hart.
Very good performances from all the actors. Thus i also do not share the opinion from the end rating so far.

Amazing film! I am 54 years old and do not consider myself a fan of hip hop. But this film tears at your heart strings. I just can't stop thinking about it. Congratulations on a job well done. I certainly hope it makes it to the theaters for all to see. So glad I was able to enjoy it at Sundance! The characters in the story were vulnerable and love able, even though their imperfections were well defined. I was on the edge of my seat through the whole movie and am even wondering about changing my opinion of Hip Hop! Good cast, good directing and excellent crew all around. We will be seeing Gina Rodriguez again! Wow! I am happy to give this film a top review.
Great movie! Excellent acting and story line! I give it a 10. The Olmos did it again!
This movie had me on the edge of my seat hoping things would work out for Filly.
It showed how much discrimination there still is in this country.
Really sad what drugs can do to a mother's judgment. Drugs clouding a persons everything and amongst that, she put her own daughter's life in jeopardy.
I was really glad to see that talent runs in the Olmos family. Like father like son!
Watching this movie is a must. I need to buy it and add it to my movie library!

If you get a chance, watch this movie!!
First of all you don't need to like rap music in order to like this movie, i really enjoyed the tracks but it goes far beyond music! The plot is not like extremely original or twisted, but it feels like everything just fits together. Whats just amazing here, is the character development! I believed all the feelings the characters had and the reactions to different situations, which also requires good acting!
Filly Brown is a movie with a lot of love, heart, passion and great music!
I do not understand the 4,8 rating at all, read the other reviews here and watch yourself!
