Plot summary

Greg is near the end of his senior year in high school, wanting to go to the prom, eyeing Cinny (the school's beauty with brains) from afar, and regularly trippin', daydreaming about being a big success as a poet, a student, a lover. His mom wants him to apply to colleges, but Greg hasn't a clue. One of his teachers, Mr. Shapic, tries to inspire him, too. He finally figures out he can get close to Cinny if he asks her for help with college applications. But friendship isn't enough, he wants romance and a prom date. So, he tells a few lies and, for awhile, it seems to be working. Then, things fall apart and Greg has to figure out how to put the trippin aside and get real.

And Fallin'

Deon Richmond is anxious to get to the prom, but his parents are of no help. They want him to apply to college, but he's just been drifting through, dreaming about getting together with Maia Campbell, working his low-paid job at the rib joint, and fantasizing about being various things -- rap star, war hero, and so forth.It's the sort of comedy in which the losers turn out to be winners because the apparent winners are awful, like Animal House. As such, it hits all the plot points, and for a bit just before the end, seems to have some heart. It's in the earlier parts, when we see his fantasies and how they are punctured that it fails. They're so over-the-top and even gross that I could take no pleasure in them. Richmond seems to be a competent performer, and perhaps witha better script, he might have attained the peribathos the situation calls for. Unfortunately, it is what it is.

Hilarious!

This is one of my favourite comedies even though it is a little more low budget than most. I enjoyed it because of the hilarious characters in the movie like the grandfather, and Greg himself, also Greg's daydreaming scenes are hilarious. I found it to have a realistic portrayal of African American families,unlike some movies and tv shows that display black families differently and wrongly. This is another reason why I enjoyed the movie, I could relate to a lot of the characters in the movie and everybody was simple and down to earth. I will never get tired of watching this movie, it is great. It is not a comedy for everyone, that's for sure. To really enjoy this movie you would probably have to be able to relate to the characters, if not you won't find the humour in it. For a low budget movie, it is really funny!
