This Sundance® award-winner follows the true story of Oscar Grant (Michael B. Jordan of TV's FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS), a 22-year-old Bay Area resident who wakes up on New Year's Eve, 2008, and decides to get a head start on his resolutions: being a better son to his mother (Octavia Spencer of THE HELP), being a better partner to his girlfriend, and being a better father to T, their beautiful 4-year-old daughter.

Notes et avis

If you wanna watch this movie skip to the last twenty minutes and you have seen everything. Unless u wanna c a random dude walk up to a total stranger hand her his phone to let her talk to his grandma and then stupidly walk away to leave his phone with a total stranger while he harrasses his old boss. Oh or watch an idiot pick up a random dead dog off the street and rock it. Creepy like...oh n my favorite was seeing this douchbag play quote unquote gangsta at the jail but goes beserk cause mommy wont hug?ew

The real story behind this movie was a tragic event that should have never happened it's just too bad they made a cheap horrible movie out of it. I'm not sure how everyone thinks this is a great film as the quality is worse then most B rated movies. The story behind the movie had potential to be made into a great film but it was done in such a horrible way.

In the comments huh? Well I was raised in the ghetto of chicago.englewood. Google it if you don't know. My dad's Mexican my mom is black. I was called names as a kid like yellow boy or some other light skinned joke. But as I grew wiser I realized that it was only envy of me. I was different but in a good way. I love all ppl no matter what race. And I hate ppl regardless of race. It's only ONE race....the human race.
