The Lottery Ticket

a 99 minute comedy
released 20 august 2010 in the usa

This movie I found was so cool directed by Erik White Starring Bow wow, Brandon t.Jackson, Naturi Naughton, Loretta Devine, Ice Cube, Keith David, Terry Crews, Mike Epps, and Charles Q, Murphy. All these great actors just make this movie so funny, and really cool.

i stayed at my aunties house for a bit and had this movie with me put it on for them to watch it, and they loved it, they watched it a few time while i was there.
This movie just has heaps of things in it that is just so hard to put into the right words. Some people have there own views on  it so 'google' 'the lottery ticket' and click on the 'IMDb' website,

It is about a young man Kevin Carson ( Bow wow) living in the projects who has to survive a three day weekend after his oportunistic neighbours find out hes holding a winning lottery ticket of 4370 million dollars.

Bow Wow stars as Kevin, a recent high school graduate who lives with his strict but loving grandmother (Loretta Devine) in an Atlanta low-income housing development. Co-writers White and Abdul Williams take their time introducing the various characters in this vibrant community, where violence is always present, but the core is made up of good people.
Kevin seems like a promising, responsible kid - his Foot Locker job is good for a few laughs - until he gains possession of a winning lottery ticket at the beginning of a three-day weekend, and everyone in the housing project finds out. Instead of hiding out in a far-away Motel 6 until the lottery office opens, he stays in the hood, dodging drug dealers, loan sharks and opportunist hotties who want to have his baby.
Among the enormous cast of secondary actors, Auto-Tune pioneer T-Pain makes a relaxed and memorable comic debut as a liquor store clerk, and Mike Epps is funny as an opportunistic preacher.
