On the Come Up

Inner-city teenager Bri Jackson (Jamila Gray) had a dad who was an emerging underground rap legend before he got shot. A swiftly viral video showed that she'd gotten his gift for rhyme-but as she puts herself in the hands of her father's slick onetime manager (Method Man), her perceived path to success might cost her what she values most. Director/co-star Sanaa Lathan's take on the Angie Thomas YA favorite co-stars Da'Vine Joy Randolph, Lil Yachty, Mike Epps. 115 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
