A must see

This film was hilariously yet inspiring. However, if you are not a black person in America it'll clearly go right over your head. For me, there were aspects of this film that were very relatable. Everyone from the hoods across the country knows someone just like "TJ". A black man born into a poverty stricken family with no way out but the streets. Somehow he stays hopeful that the next "lick" (get rich quick scheme) will be the one to have them set for life. Most people in those situations don't want to be there so they're willing to do whatever it takes to leave it all behind. After several attempts at doing things the wrong way TJ decides to start a career as a life coach. So go ahead and watch this film for yourself, it's well worth it!
