If I could give it a zero, I would. Of course Lee Daniels has no men as main characters, demonize a father for serving in the military, has a trans as a bestie teaching the children to be criminals, absent minded, alcoholic mother, powerless women preachers all around leading churches.. need I say more?
This movie has nothing to do with a true story and ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with Christ. The people leaving 4/5 star reviews are part of the "Lee Daniels" gang. They will support any trash he puts out.
I won't tell you not to waste your time watching because you may want a good laugh. Just don't have your expectations too high.
