Highly Overrated But Still Good

Gripping story with well-crafted characters

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

With retirement on his mind, a successful young drug dealer sets up one last big job, while dealing with trigger-happy colleagues and the police. Superfly is a remake of a film with the same name from 1972 starring Jennifer Morrison, now this movie was just a waste of time from start to finish. The actors were phoning in, the characters were the stereotypical drug dealer and the movie was just awful to begin with it's like a Black Panther meets Shaft for the poor and even worse than both of those titles combined i'm afraid plus the shower scene? what was that now? like we're still doing this kind of things? (0/10)

GREAT GREAT movie. Director X you did the damn thing.....Future you too. EXCELLENT movie! Thank you for making Priest educated and wore GREAT clothes

This is decent-reboot, Trevor Jackson gives a solid performance as "Priest" trying to get out the drug game but wanting to do one more big job before....retiring. The film looks good, it is very polished/glitzy with a hip-hop soundtrack ,it moves at a decent pace, violence/action, a little comedy, just like he original, I wish the writing was better, i believe this movie was intended for the new generation of moviegoers unfortunately, they were not born when the original film was released and the movie trailer left much to be desired/understood. In overall, a solid film- Superfly will most likely fare better on cable, digital release and movie streaming outlets.

The new Superfly movie with Trevor Jackson was good and it had good action and I liked the ending. It stayed true to the original Superfly story done in the 1970s but has some changes here and there - I went and saw it yesterday and was glad I did. Some people are claiming it was not good but I think they just want to be negative and some might even have jealously and is trying to destroy it. It was not perfect, and Trevor Jackson's hair could have been "more permed" to have that Ron O'neal look, but it was worth seeing.
