The Great Depression Audience Reviews

Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype
Tacticalin An absolute waste of money
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
