Kevin E.

At the beginning of the film, some of the dialogue and acting is terrible, and I was worried that the whole film would feel like a made for tv movie. But after the first 5 minutes, the movie hits it's stride. Strong performances by the actors who play 'Easy' and 'Lightning'. The only weak member of the cast in my opinion, was Tristan Wilds. I loved him in "The Wire", but he didn't feel right for the role in this one. Overall, a solid movie, with a great message.
