Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

nina-oh-nina the main character, Chantel is annoying. she is a huge Brooklyn, New York stereotype. she yells every line and her attitude stinks worse than rotten fish. at times she is unnecessarily rude with people who have done nothing to her...when she stole the money from the baby's father and spent it with her friend I was angry for him. then she attempted to talk him into putting the baby into a garbage can and throwing her away...I was pretty much done at that point. Then it cuts to her being all honky dory and back to life as if it hadn't even happened. I'm not the biggest advocate for abortion but I would have preferred she done that over going through labor and putting it in a garbage bag dumping it on the street

Joseph P. Ulibas Just Another Girl on the I.R.T. (1992) was an interesting movie that was neglected during it's release at the theaters and on video. I saw a trailer for this film at my local art house cinema. I enjoyed this movie very much. The budget was shoe string and the cast was filled with mostly novices but the end results were very effective. A sad tale about people who'll be swept under the rug due to ignorance about life, their economic situation or the environment where people live.A young African-American teenager wants to make it out of the ghetto and go to college and make something out of herself. But some questionable judgment calls, a dire environment and the out spoken person that she is slowly drag her down. Can she claw her way out of her current dilemma or will she just become another girl in the projects who tried but failed?Too bad the director never made a follow up picture or produced a sequel to this film. I would like to see if she managed to pull herself out of the poverty mire or just became another disenfranchised person on the dole or in government housing. Sad but filmed with a gritty realism.Highly recommended.

krazy982 I, on the other hand, do not agree with what one of the user's write stating that this movie was "just awful". If you have never lived in that environment or been around people like that, then how could you understand the movie? It might have not been a Matrix type movie but it had it's meaning behind it. Here we have a girl who grew up in the projects, family on a tight income, and deals with the pressures of teenage life in New York City. For someone to just say that it was plain awful is insulting..maybe they need to see the movie again and actually take the time out to try and understand what this movie is trying to say to our young people.

lukegrifpa The actress playing the main character had some charisma, but otherwise the acting is really terrible, even for an indy. The actors themselves are clearly inexperienced, but the director apparently didn't know how to work with them to pick up the pace, and probably didn't have the budget to do more than one or two takes. The cliche dialogue didn't help much either.
