But, when ghosts from his mother's past come back to haunt his present, he must defend his family…and quickly turn into the strong man his father prayed he'd become.

But, all that changes when an enemy from the past catches up with them. It's finally time to take action-and now, they're done running. Weapons at the ready, Wilson, Jr. and Millie prepare for a final showdown with the murderer who robbed him of a father and her of a husband. Now, in a battle fueled by family ties and blood feuds, it will become very clear what happens when anyone tries to come between this son and his mother.

    There are so many chances for Illegal Tender to get things right that it's depressing to realize that it misses all of them.

    A little unrealistic, but awesome just the same. A very strong Mother Wanda was in this movie and the Mother son bond- much like what I'd want to have with my son, if that had been our circumstances. The sound track is one to have, I'll be lookiing for it soon.
