The Playlist:
One of the most tried and true genres that has served more than its fair share of rote, by-the-numbers movies, is that of the "inspirational teacher." It seems every year or two, another project comes along, with another actor or actress, teaching [insert minority group] life lessons by connecting to them through literature or sometimes hip-hop. And "Around The Block" has both.
This looks like it would be good, not exactly what I usually watch but it still got my attention.
