Review: This movie is surprisingly very good.The movie had really a great cast. Shameik Moore gives one of the best performances of 2015. The characters were relatable. The geek aspect of the movie really made the movie fun and Interesting. This movie is hilarious. The production design of the movie are beautifully. I really didn’t buy the story of it because the story elements seemed cliched and the story has been seen on the big screen many times.
Recommendations: In the end DOPE is an enjoyable movie. I recommend it to young adults.
