I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Beulah Bram
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

I really enjoyed the first three seasons of Survivor's Remorse. The development and interaction of the characters was entertaining. The story line of an athlete who is suddenly thrust into amazing success and fortune, and seems to handle it well, should be appreciated given the number of opposite stories seen on the news today. The series started strong but it is increasingly lame. I'm having trouble sitting through full season four episodes. The show needs something to punch it up again. I do not see the show lasting much longer without a significant change.

One of HBO's pride and joy programs, Entourage, tells the story of four friends who come together to make it in Hollywood. Now, this Starz program, takes that same idea and brings it into the family. The cast of Survivor's Remorse is amazingly funny and brilliant (especially the wonderful Mike Epps, who plays Julius). Honestly, when I first started watching this show, I was afraid I wasn't going to enjoy it, but as I continued watching, I was mesmerized. I binge-watched the first season without moving from my chair and now with the release of season two, I cancel my existing Saturday plans to watch the new episodes live. I recommend that you watch this show if you enjoy Basketball or Entourage.

The topics already revealed have some substance, but some of these characters need a lot of work. For example, Eric Ash's character "M- Chuck" is terrible. The whole "ghetto gay girl" profile is overplayed and the profanity is excessive. I confess, that I can curse like a sailor, but it seems like the characters are trying too hard for something that normally flows of the tongue of an expert. Erica should fight for more substance in her role, because it gets tiring real quick. Ron Reaco's character, Reggie seems to be the voice of reason in the whole show, and that gets old too without anyone else having a flash of genius to invoke some common sense. Overall, the writing is not as powerful or intriguing as other Starz series, like Power. When there are so many shows to choose from these days, viewers don't have a lot of patience for a show to mature. Best of luck to Survivor's Remorse.

It has been noted that there has been a recent surge in TV shows prominently featuring blacks or with predominately black casts. Some are pretty good but most are just bad - like most TV fare these days. After viewing the first two episodes, I'll state that this one is not too bad. More "dramedy" than "comedy" which is not particularly a bad thing. It will just need time to fully develop its voice.The writing is good. The acting is natural and not overplayed like some kind of urban passion play and there's a little subtlety there. They're going after familiar issues but keeping it entertaining and engaging without that TV show proselytizing that can drag it down.To juxtapose this show against another one I just recently watched also, "Black-ish" seems to have a better cast working with similar themes but tries too hard to do what "Survivor's Remorse" did without cardboard cut-outs. This show has a chance to be really good if given a chance.
