Good Lord, this movie looks so ghetto it's embarrassing. I'd rather sit through a Tyler Perry movie-athon (and I friggin HATE his movies) then watch this crap just once.

No it has nothing to do with it being an mostly "non-Caucasian cast" it has to do with it:

1. Looking like it takes place in the ghetto.
2. Looking like its nothing but thugs and skeezy looking girls trying to get Bow wow's Lottery ticket.
3. and last but not least making the general black population look like we are crazy, ignorant, thuggish, cook-out having, church hollering African Americans.

I don't like movies that feed into stereotypes, ie that we are all from the "hood" and ghetto.

Also the reason I don't like Tyler Perry movies is simply because they are stupid. It could be black people, white people, asian people.... it wouldn't change the fact that I just hate his movies.

I think I'll take a chance on watching it. After all, a large percentage would love to win lottery - especially those of us who are on low income, such as myself. I know that I could use the money to pay for my home and my automobile, as well as my parents' home and automobiles. Then, I would go back to school and get a real estate degree - along with some technical skills. Then, I would have some fun buying some movies and some porn - not too many though. Then, I would share the money with my extended family and with my friends as well. What would the rest of you do if you were to win $350 million?

If the movie takes place in the "ghetto" then of course the movie will look "ghetto"! I don't understand why some people hate Tyler Perry's movies?
