Warning: Spoilers
Malcolm (Shameik Moore) is a geek growing up in "The Bottom" section of Inglewood. He wants to go to Harvard. He hangs out with two geek friends Jib (Tony Revolori) and Diggy (Kiersey Clemons) is a lesbian who likes Justin Bieber. They love things from the 1990s. While attending a birthday party at a club there was a shoot out and in all the excitement Malcolm grabs the wrong knapsack and gets the one filled with Molly.

With the owner busted, there are others who want the bag while Malcolm stands at the crossroads of his life.

Malcolm breaks the stereotype and provides us with an interesting character. There other characters were not as well developed, but were played well. This was one "thug" movie that I enjoyed.
