 | The is the best movie I have ever seen dealing with the following themes: Friendship, Loyalty and Trust. Even though the movie is about crime, these themes dominate the plot. The girls' commitment to each other and loyalty to their cause is very impressive. Also the director of the movie deals with these themes in a easy, playful and humourous manner, even though the girls' couse is a risky and dangerous one. This keeps the audience interested. There is no dull moment or lousy scene in this movie. |

| I don't blame these four young women for being mad at the world cuase their dreams keep on being crushed part of the reason cause their black. One was fired from her bank for being accused of having something to with with the bank robbery all cause she knows the bank robbers another woman had her baby being taking away be the protective service for not looking after her child enough. Another woman's brother was kill cause the cops thought he was one of the bank robbers drawing a gun but instead it was champagn glass, even if he would of lived his sister still would of not been completely happy about things cause he decided to turn down college after she worked hard. And last but certanily not least the worstest woman of the group who just ack's like a guy kiss on her girlfriend and loves rap music. It was her idea to start robbing banks in the first place so the other bought into it. It made their lives way better then being janatiors cleaning things. |

| I really enjoyed this film and the different ways in which all of the main characters were portrayed. Cleo had a certain type of spice added to her character. It was very unexpected of her but she played the role really well. I think that if an individual didn't know her or at least know of her then they would have really believed that she was gay. T.T. played her role as well. She was the scary one of them all yet she knew when it was time to women up she was on top of things. I loved Frakie, for the simple fact that she didn't take no crap from anyone, she stood on her own two feet and did whatever it was that she needed to do. I commend Stonie for working hard and stepping up to the plate for her brother. She knew what had to be done and did it. Overall I truely enjoyed this film and there should be a sequel. |
