[Director Clement] Virgo and co-writer Chaz Thorne look beyond the usual character arcs, adding fresh and urgent perspective to a socially aware and emotionally intense movie.

Rating: 4/5 --
A bold script improves this drama about masculinity and bigotry in a small community. It also helps to have a terrific actor like Danny Glover on board.

[I]ts most powerful scenes involve no jabs or hooks. They are the quiet, almost wordless moments between Danny Glover...and K.C. Collins...
