the ending was really good. BUt most of this movie is basically a boy and his dog, which barely works for Fallout 3, let alone this movie. THere is some good world building that is done in between annoying jokes, so I would like the see some movies made in this universe. The special effects were very good for what I am sure was a small budget. THis movie also kills the notion of the one true love, even though half the movie is just that. I liked it, but not enough to replace any of the movies I already had for movies of the year. 8/10
wow, a really convoluted story. I ignored this for most of the year because a podcast gave a not a bad review, but the way he reviewed the movie he made it seem like it wasn't going to be enjoyabe. You know you should actually be interested in most of the films you see right. Someone posted a top 10 list of movies they saw this year recently, and I thought to myself "you know you are supposed to enjoy the film you watch, right". You see a trailer for a movie and its out in left field, you leave that for Barry Bonds.
but back to this movie, most of the bad stuff happens off screen. you alot of flashbacks as a back story, and it really thins the movie out. But then again, how deep did you want a Issa Rae movie to be. A lot of black women should watch this movie and take notes. yet, I won't exclude myself. IF you are a good worker and you like someone. You can be a good worker anyway, this movie proves it, albeit with a deep ass back story. That is the best part of the movie. Simpler movies made my Top 10 list, but there is no reason not to like this. 9/10
p.s. Issa Rae needed her friend to jump on a grenade and she jumps on it. Everubody wins
