Middle School Hit!

"OK...I am bias. The lead, Isaiah was one of my students. I thought for a "first time" movie it was an excellent effort. I have shown the movie to my 8th grade studnets and they got a lot out of it. They could relate to having to make choices and how they can effect you."

"This lovely jewel of a movie provides a heartwarming and thought provoking view of the difficulties of raising a child in an inner city environment. The characters are both believable and memorable and the movie avoids typical gang and drug shock value. Writer/Director Aaron Greer tenderly follows his main character Eric as he learns to make the decisions needed to Get Grown. Although this is a gentle family oriented movie, it never becames sacchrine or Disneyesque. I highly recommend it for it's authenticity and it's uniqueness."
