The movie is about redemption and how redemption sometimes just passes by due to circumstances outside our control. It is Bad News Bears-esque from the white guy character Reeves plays. But this is also about inner city kids, project kids with no real hope once they get to a certain age. It shows how quickly something wonderful for that part of America can get flipped upside down in a moment.

I gave it a 10 because the kids are fantastic, Reeves is fantastic and the script is great. It's a tear jerker and a happy story at the same time, much like the lives it's trying to get the viewer to see from a new angle.

Side Note to my fellow Cine reviewers. It's really sad a great movie like this gets only a 6 average, but we all know it's because it's a "black" movie. You look at every score average in Cinetrac and our own biases and racism shine through over and over where black movies consistently get lower scores even when they are clearly better acting, better scripts, and better directing. This movie is that exact example of a 9/10 being underrated by people who don't see themselves, missing the point it's supposed to get us to see others.
