I tried to watch this a few times but thought it was a series. Seen it was on Tubi so I gave it a try. Here's my honest review... Cute cast but awful acting! Plot dropped my jaw but the whole gold digging thing was typical for the 2 cute black main actresses. Love the idea and efforts. I heard it's a part 2, I will give it a try as well.

I turned this on for a movie to go to sleep on. Thought it was going to be bad actors but it was surprisingly good that I had to watch it again bc I missed the beginning. Oh and the artist songs they play are dope too.

From the start, I knew this was a B-grade film, and I was about to give up 15-20 mins in on a story that's been told many times before - gold diggers, and then BAM! The plot twist that will make your jaw drop. (no spoilers)

The twist may not be for everyone, but I must say, the story just keeps building and progressing so well, that there's no way anyone will not see it thru to the end. This story is based on the best selling novel of the same name by novice writer and executive producer of this film, Miasha Coleman. I'll say this... it's a story no one has ever done before, and for that, she nailed it.

What's even more impressive is that this is the first ever acting role for Reyna Love, and only the 2nd full length feature film role for Erica Pinkett, with only a handful of TV shows and short films. No, their acting wasn't great, but for amateur actors, I feel they nailed it, and any flaws in their acting, was from the lack of direction from writer and director Jamal Hill. He's not a seasoned filmmaker by any means, but having 12 directorial and 8 writing credits, I feel his directing fell short. And his screenplay, although flowed nicely with continuity and timelines, had very choppy scene cuts and edits. All the supporting cast were convincing and played their roles on point, including the infamous convicted felon turned model/actor Jeremy Meeks in his 4th acting credit.

The score was actually decent, although the sound was distant and hollow, as if someone forgot to bring the boom mic. The cinematography was good, as were the rich sets and sweet rides. Had this film been given a bigger budget for more popular actors and a better writer and director, it could've easily been at least 95% on Rotten Tomatoes - yes, the story is that unique and controversial. I'm still giving this a well deserved 7/10 for the incredible story and crazy plot twist, as well for the decent performances from literally amateur actors. It's a film that will raise your emotions one way or another, but in a surprising fashion nevertheless, and that feeling alone makes any film a success imo.
