In response to tensorbundle and his review "Blackout", I always find it strange when reviewers like himself point out how few whites there are in films that are targeted to primarily African American audiences.The reviewer mentions there are only "two or three" white actors in the film, as if this were a bad thing.tensorbundle, imagine if almost every film made were all black actors and only 5% or less of films featured whites? That's how it is if you're African American. Practically all American films and television shows feature white casts with just the occasional black presence.It's ridiculous that you think a film can't exist without white actors.As for the film itself, no, it isn't very good. But that's beside the point.

Lottery Ticket is one of the best comedy movies in 2010, when I watched this comedy movie, I realized how a poor person can become a million naira by doing the best he or she could can to help the other people in the community. Bow Bow known as Kevin in the movie as a actor, he played the role of helping others, when he likes to take care of a man who was staying in his house all day to buy him all want he needed. Furthermore, kevin went to shop n go to buy the man who was name is not known beef jerky and cherry coke, he was get fire from his job because of his relationship with a guy who came to his store to stolen a boot. As a caring person, he was lucky to play Mega jackpot and all his five numbers were chosen for winning of the Mega jackpot. Kevin gets luck through his relationship between him and his girlfriend because the number played by him was giving by his girlfriend after they both ate fortune cookies.

In 1995 Shad '(Lil)Bow Wow' Moss had an uncredited roll in Snoop Dogg's Murder Was the Case: The Movie straight-to-video short film. Since then Bow Wow has been in movies such as Like Mike (2002), Roll Bounce (2005), and Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006).Bow Wow has never really established himself as an actor like some other rappers (ex. Will Smith), which is not to say he never will, but in this particular movie, he doesn't offer anything different than he does in his other movies. But in this movie he's good, he is exactly what his character needs to be.Brandon T. Jackson (Tropic Thunder) is good, he has some funny lines.But this movie isn't a Friday rip-off or anything like that. It's more about the choices Bow Wow makes after he realizes he wins the lottery. And the choices he makes are pretty interesting.I recommend this movie for someone who doesn't mind turning off his brain and just watching a movie.

Lottery TicketIn addition to millions of dollars, when someone wins the lottery, they also win greedy relatives, continual litigation and multiple lightening strikes.Fortunately, the lucky ticket-holder in this comedy only has to cope with a vindictive ex-con.When word gets out that Kevin (Bow Wow) won the $370 million jackpot, his neighbourhood comes a-knocking. Unable to collect his winnings for 3 days, Kevin must keep the winning ticket away from the perils of spontaneous prosperity, i.e. sexy sycophants, a loan shark (Keith David) and a local thug.Fortunately, Kevin has an impoverished ex-boxer (Ice Cube) in his corner.While it attempts to evoke nostalgia for old school neighbourhood-centric comedies, Lottery Ticket is a lousy torchbearer: the casting is second-rate, the characters are typecasts, and the jokes are tired. And besides, regardless of who claims the winning ticket, in any lottery the manufacturer of the giant novelty cheque is always the winner. (Red Light)
