It is a performances centric movie

Don't Believe the Hype

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Without a doubt this has to be the best thuglife, gangsta movie I have ever seen with an primarely black American cast. If this does't become the Oscar grabbing movie for the best actor, best screenplay, best score, best director, best music, best e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g in the 2019 Academy Awards... then I don't what else does.This is a 9 out of 10. I Wanted to give it a 10 out of 10 if that Tara character was not played by a white actress. U no waad M sain?

You are in for a treat Disappointing is too kind a description. Someone is on a delusional ego trip with no idea about real life and struggles Wonder where I get merchandise for this honour UP ?

Man, I don't know why Kanye put up money for this trash. I wish I could get a refund of my Google Play rental fee for real! Dame Dash attempted to write, direct, star-in and narrate this so called gangster flick that was even worse than State Property 2. I get that his ego may be outta control, but let those with talent do what they do best. Bad script equals bad movie and the script was bad to begin with. There were old dudes playing young dudes and big homies younger than little homies? I was confused, but not just by the fact that so called kingpens were chillin' on a car parked on the street and doing the work of foot soldiers, which made no sense either, but what was with all the slow motion, opera music filled shoot-em-up scenes? And there were way to many of them!!! I guess the movie got green lit, because Dame paid for it all by himself, along with a few rich homies. A man who has made millions in the rap game and produced several other urban crime flicks should be over the same old same dope dealing movie, but what Dame Dash's fascination with the drug game is at 50 year old is beyond me. There are so many other black experiences to be told besides the overdone, ghetto ass drug dealing genre. I'd expect black excellence outta a guy of Dame caliber, but somehow he's still fascinated w/ pushing rocks on the block in Harlem. SMH!

This movie is all about the African side in the "African-American" indelicacy...
