Don't try to remake a classic. This movie was aimed at speaking about the realities of African American men growing up in Oakland but seems like it was made by the very folks the protagonist hates so much. People who don't really know. There are so many tropes and clichés that by the end of the movie you can just guess what he's going to say next. JD's casting could and should have been better, the over the top hardass black father is so tired right now, we have much better movies covering these topics. The essence is good the execution is as very poor. Worth a one time watch.
