    HORRIBLE FILM! PROFANITY BY 12 YR OLD KID
    This film is horrible: the 12 year old kid who's plays in the movie has such a disgusting mouth constantly cursing word after word, he's worse than any adult in the movie. Jokes about eating p***y and D**k , like who wrote this life line? How is anyone going to feel comfortable listening to that??? I'm so sad that taraji would accept to be in a film like this. It's truly disgusting. Then all the racial comments falling into all the stereo types, it's okay for the 12yr old kid to curse at a white cop bc he's black and the cops white? Seriously disgusting Netflix. This needs to be taken off.
