This is a wonderful and powerful movie that speaks about the importance of fathers in the community. This is a must watch!

A film that is needed and should be shown in schools and churches to our our youth today. The normalization of fatherless homes has become an epidemic in the black community. This film sheds light on the issues of being raised without a father and the lack of men in family's. I urge the black youth today to watch this and break the cycle.

Disregard the trolls giving it 1 star. They are all brand new accounts w/ no other reviews. Tommy has certain sworn enemies and they will stop at nothing to see him fail. I doubt they actually watched it. I did watch it the day it came out and can say that it's a great film and worth watching. It goes into detail and provides different prospectives from a diverse group of people being interviewed. The 1 and only thing I will agree w/ the trolls is I don't understand why this took 4+ years to produce. That's it.

This film provides facts that should have everyone thinking what's going on, why are we allowing this to happen in the US in 2019. These statistics seem like something you would see in a third world African or central American country. The docu-film also touches on the disparities in our legal system which puts a huge burden on men, and makes it harder for them to succeed in life. Men are not starting at 0 but in the negative or "in the red" and have to do so much b4 they can even reach 0, and than have to keep going from there to make for themselves. It's the equivalent to giving someone a head start in a race. Yes, there are minor things I would adjust if I was the director such as maybe spending more time on certain people in the film vs others but it's not a huge deal. Or putting more time with the written text on screen. Or maybe dividing it into sections or chapters, each focusing on a main subject or theme. Lastly, maybe focusing slightly more on prisons and showing real court footage. As you can tell these are all minor tweaks and just my own opinion, you may disagree and are entitled to.

All in all I would give this a 9.65 / 10

Well i am happy this Documentary come about very much needed i am for Tommy Sotomayor movement for fathers cannot wait for part two this one worth the wait and i hope its get out more i will be watching it over and over around friends and family i would rate 10/10

I cried because this was a reality for men. There are many that will kill the messenger instead of receiving the message. Truth is a bitter pill. I loved it.
