Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
Sure, we've all seen this story before, but that doesn't hamper this film from being enormously entertaining, with riveting performances, great beats, and poetic rhymes.

Austin Chronicle
Rating: 2.5/4 --
A traditional make-your-way-into-the-music-biz drama with lots of Latin-flavored grit and gravitas.

Movie Nation
Rating: 5.5/10 --
The movie works best as a showcase for Rodriguez, transcending its simplistic script and clichéd plot in snatches -- when its leading lady is at the mike and especially in the film's final awkward family reunion.

More heartfelt, humanistic, and entertaining than such a clichéd showbiz cautionary tale has any right to be.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
Unfortunately, the film is marred by a story, situations and stereotypical characters that strike all-too-familiar chords.

Gina Rodriguez's magnetic star turn keeps this often overwrought film engaging, even when the script lets her down.

Product Description:
A rising Los Angeles hip-hop artist faces some difficult decisions in this gritty musical drama. "Majo" Tonorio (Gina Rodriguez) has been struggling for as long as she can remember. With her mother behind bars, she knows that developing her skills behind the microphone could be her ticket to a better life. Then, one day, a local record producer offers Majo the opportunity of a lifetime. Rapping under the name "Filly Brown," Majo steps into the studio and starts to flow. But when Filly is pushed to betray the friends who have always lifted her up, she realizes that the price of fame may be more than she's willing to pay.
