It was a watchable movie, decent the storyline was real life. Teenagers being teenagers, learning who they are. Single mother struggling. Just real life situations. 5/ 10.

This is a coming of age story for Grace (Ryan Destiny) raised by a single Haitian mother (Garcelle Beauvais) with outward beauty, but dubious morals. Grace is smart and doesn't want to be like her mother, yet is drawn down the same path. Grace turns inward after her best friend (Paige Hurd) kills herself, the circumstances we get to know in flashbacks. Grace is coaxed out of her shell with many negative results, much of her own doing. Meagan Good plays Grace's new BFF and mentor for better and worse. This is a well acted film, although I thought parts were over done. It touches on bulling and finding your true self. Guide: F-word, sex, and rape.

First of all, the casting was a complete mess along with the costumes especially for the cheerleaders. Why was Raven Symone in this movie? Why did Romeo look 25? This movie made no sense I'm still confused. Were the random montages of clips actual things that happen?? Why did Grace's bestfriend randomly shown making out with the "mean girl" (raven)? Why did Grace randomly go completely off the rails after being a good student and consistent in her morals? Why did Megan Good even start hanging out with Grace? Where did Megan go at the end of the movie? What's the point of Matt's character at all? I don't understand what I watched. Ultimately this movie is a hot mess, pretty garbage don't watch it.

Grace's braid changed 30x on the first day. AA movies don't have to lack like this😔 We have to let others live their life.

It's OK. I liked the way it was filmed and it had a lot of promise, but it feels like the movie was edited for time and kind of skipped around leaving out important details. I wouldn't even call this a coming of age tale. I would call it more a chic turning a 360, random tale. One scene she loses her virginity and likes this guy and literally the next evening she's out hitting on other men at the club with no explanation on why she dropped the other guy. Then when she gets raped and her and Cher show back up, she doesn't shoot the dudes or do anything. She just runs away and lets her friend take the fall. At the end of the movie you almost no longer feel sorry for her, but instead start to resent her.

I rate movies based on their ability to leave me with new questions. I left wanting to understand more about the mother (played by Garcelle Beauvais) - to deconstruct her if you will - from the fear she had about her daughter's sexual identity (what exactly was her underlying fear? why wasn't she more afraid of the fate her daughter would meet at the hands of sexual predators and/or men who might otherwise exploit her?); to the lack of what I'd like to call a maternal muscle; and, to her own inherited broken cycles of what love looks and feels like. I wanted to know more about how class and culture affected her capacity to render the kind of nurture and compassion that her daughter (played by Ryan Destiny) so desperately needed. Ultimately, this was a movie about identity and beauty; how we see ourselves and the way we think the rest of the world sees us and/or the ones we love is absolutely critical to who we ultimately become.

Not a pg-13 movie . 1 part a girl takes a younger girl into a * shop . You can hear loud moaning amongst other things you see and hear in a * shop 2nd the high school girls do a little song a dance that's explicit "pop this cherry I know you wanna eat it " etc . ect. Third there is a scene where a man gives a woman oral sex. No nudity is seen but the scene is very explicit and inappropriate for a "pg13" movie There's some talk about girls being lesbians That's just to name a few. No need to go into the rest of the movie you get the idea. This movie is rated R not of 13
