Woman shares how Straw movie triggered her

In her Facebook post, Fhay shared her thoughts about the emotional movie.

The lady said:

“After her landlord threw her things out and she screamed, I just gave up. And then, I started laughing, cos my next thought was: “Girl, go sell asss.” Because as how??? You and who dey do that kind suffer head?
“My survival instinct is literally zero. If we ever get vampires, zombie apocalypse, holocaust, count me out. I’ll be the first to go. On my mama, I’m not running hether-shelter for nothing. That kind of rock bottom? It’s not for the weak. Hell nooooo
“This movie will bring out your rawest reactions and survivalist instincts. You’ll watch Taraji’s character fight, spiral, rise, and get knocked down again. And somehow keep going. It’s a painful watch, but sorry for the laugh cos really as how?? How did one person go through all this in a day??

“Tyler Perry, as usual, plays God, the devil, and karma’s personal assistant in his stories. He’ll throw a Black woman into the depths of hell, test her faith to its bones and make you question if survival is even worth it. The man does not rest and why??? Omo eh, this movie made me upset and frustrated. I wanted to crase. my head o.”
