ATL has decent acting and whatnot, but god was it boring. Their really wasnt much of a plot or anything interesting at all. It's really not worth your time.

"This movie reminds us that it's cool to be black", "how great it is to be a BLACK teen". Because every other movie reminds us that it's cool to be white... You're both race-obsorbed idiots, and I bet this movie is a "This movie reminds us that it's cool to be black", "how great it is to be a BLACK teen".

You're both race-obsorbed idiots, and I bet this movie is a race-obsorbed movie- all about skin color, and not at all about substance.… Expand

Nothing new or enlightening. There seems to be a recurring themes in these comming of age movies. Apparently the skating rink is the place to be. I must have missed out on that part of childhood.

Consistantly inconsistant. TI hits one flat note the whole movie. And the writing...I think we laughed at them not with them. South West Atlanta is a great part of Atlanta, but this movie did no justice to it...Not enough Big Boi (who should Consistantly inconsistant. TI hits one flat note the whole movie.

Full of mellow drama and overacting, with internal conflicts that never really connect with the audience, this movie is basically modern blaxploitation. The dialouge isn't as corny as you would expect, and all of the actors except for T.I.Full of mellow drama and overacting, with internal conflicts that never really connect with the audience, this movie is basically modern blaxploitation. The dialouge isn't as corny as you would expect, and all of the actors except for T.I. did decently. However, this movie does, by any definition suck. ATL is a sad attempt to harken back to the classic urban movies, such as Menace II Society, Boyz N the Hood, and Juice; but with a twist of setting it in Atlanta. There are some funny moments, Lauren London is pretty hot, but T.I. can't really act well, and the plot isn't very good either. It's not the most terrible movie in the world, and it is possible for some people to sit through the whole thing, but even people in the neighborhood where the movie takes place probably wouldn't even watch it twice. Plus, on top of that, the drama is pointless. It leads nowhere. You never really get invested in the characters and, unlike other hood movies, the moral doesn't matter. They supposedly "grow up" but you don't feel like they actually did.… Expand
