Worth the watch. Unpolished but realistic "street level" acting.

Saw this movie pop up on Amazon. I really liked it. Being from mid west could totally relate. Ike underdog stories, and you don’t see pool movies that often

I love a movie set in Detroit, but this was even better than I expected. Darren Weiss gets it…a real Detroit story. A lower class child having to adult way too fast, an opportunity presented and then tragically lost, ending up somewhere in the middle. What’s a film without hope though, and this one sure has it. We are all rooting for this character. Break 2, anyone?
