Review of On the Come Up

Let us play it safe with a coming of age: Politically correct, woke style
9 September 2023
By the numbers hood movie that covers all the cliche of hood movies. Only problem is this one is full of wokeness, politically correct language, and a play it safe strong female (at least attempt at it) lead. Sanaa Latham wrote this based on work of the same author of Hate You Give. Whereas that movie had something to say and had a strong supporting cast, this one has a bunch of characters no one cares about. It's like, they couldn't get those good actors from Hate you give to come back, so they hired the production assistants who had experience acting in church skits. When I heard the line: Latinx, I mean, really??? Even the writing is PC wokeness and laughable. Skip this garbage and see Hate You Give instead.
