Lottery Ticket is a 2010 American comedy film directed by Erik White and starring Bow Wow, Brandon T. Jackson, Naturi Naughton, Keith David, Charlie Murphy, Gbenga Akinnagbe, Terry Crews, Mike Epps, Loretta Devine and Ice Cube. The story follows a young man from Atlanta who wins a $370 million lottery, and soon realizes that people from the neighborhood are not his real friends, but are after his money.

Released theatrically on August 20, 2010 by Warner Bros. Pictures, the film received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the cast's performances but criticized the story and characters. It was also a box office disappointment, only grossing $24.7 million against a $19 million budget.[3]
