Movie Reviews

Hilarious!
Nesha | Pensacola, FL, USA | 06/09/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Okay, If you watch this movie expecting to see some amazingly deep, oscar worthy movie, you're going to be disappointed. If you're easily offended (or disgusted) then you're not gonna be happy with this movie. For the rest of us (who enjoy a lil t&a and hilarious "i-got-my-thumb-cut-off" scenes), this movie's great. Perhaps i think it's so amazing because of my deep and profound love for Justin Pierce (1975 - 2000 R.I.P) aka Luther. I dunno. I liked it though. I thought it was absolutely hilarious, although at times it was kinda disgusting."
Give this movie a chance!

"I admit, for the first ten or fifteen minutes I thought I was going to have to detroy this dvd and any evidence that I had purchased it. But I gave it a chance and this turned out to be one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Whoever was in charge of marketing this film ought to be fired, because judging from the cover one would expect to see a action/thriller. Well, it has action, a bit of gore but it's mostly a comedy. Very funny stuff! I recommend it to anyone with a slightly deranged sense of humor!"
Funny

"This movie is entertaining, period. The joke is on you when you begin to take the movie seriously. pretty soon you realize that the villan is a crack smoking serial killer with a disposition and voice of an English Prince."
Interesting premise, suprisingly good movie!

"Jimmy (Bokeem Woodbine) and Luther (Justin Pierce) are con-men who've hit rock bottom. In a desperate move, they plan to blackmail a doctor to pay off their loan shark. What they didn't count on was their victim being more dangerous than themselves and the loan shark they fear. While the premise may sound contrived and overly formulaic, it isn't. This small picture is fresh and at times original and always entertaining. In the world were the "Heist Gone Bad" genre is as tired as the "Boy Meets Girl" story line, comes a familiar story with some nice twists and turns. At times Blackmale is over the top, but it never stops entertaining. During the viewing of the movie, I found myself at different points in the movie, rooting for different characters, all of them more messed up than the others, while all of them being likeable in some way. One of the stars, Bokeem Woodbine, is, in my opinion a highly underated and undersused actor. Another passed over film that he starred in, Caught Up, was a great ride, and highly entertaining. Just when you think you had it all figured out it switched gears on you. All the way up until the end the movie kept you on your toes and was never predictable or contrived."
