Colette Poole

Thought provoking cinema. I rarely had to suspend my disbelief because this is probably exactly how the world of fame and fortune works.

Good plot. Poor execution. Characters are a bit annoying because the AAVE seems forced. The excessive use of n-word, unnecessary vulgarity, & soft porn nature of the drama diminished what this could have been. Also, the legal portion of the show was more elementary than clever.. it was super basic so I couldn't even fall in love with the main character. Speaking of the main character, whoever dressed her couldn't figure out if they wanted her look to be stylish yet conservative versus racy and totally out of regs for a law office. But they did include the quintessential red bottoms * sigh *eye roll. I'm a Black professional womam who was raised in a poor urban city so I was hoping to connect...I didn't. Not interested in season 2. We deserve better work from Kerry.

Drama > Realty! Was really hoping to learn a thing or two, but I just ended up being annoyed.

The only good thing about this movie was its demonstration of the mental health challenges of living in violence.
