Agreed. I won't say its not a classic or a good movie, but I always felt like it lacked something. The movie is really all over the place, and not enough time is really spent on Cain's transformation from decent kid with at least some sort of sense to a thugged out banger, robbing people and shyt. Felt like one minute he was Trey from Boyz and the next he's O-Dog

And the fukked up part about Menace II Society is that Cain got merked in the end, but O Dog who done the most dirt and killed the most people remains unscratched :birdman: . Almost like the Hughes Bros are saying that the crazy nikkas can do anything and not suffer the consequences. That shyt made a lot of dudes aspire to be O-Dog more than anything else in real life, back in the day.

Menace II Society didn't even have a plot nicca. We were infatuated with that b.s., on the strength of Boyz In the Hood, but now it's senseless violence. Furious Styles was/is Iconic


This is preposterous. Menace didn't have a plot?:wtf: FOH

Maaaaaaaaaaaaan sitcho 5 dolla ass down fo I make change :heh:

Quotes like that is why that movie is wack. What does that even mean? I'm anticipating someone saying the can't wait to neg me they dikk hard. Cornball ass dialogue

:dafuk: That's exactly why the movie is good fool. The nikka that's always sideline or trying to make a change for the better winds up taking a downfall. What you rather see O dog get murdered by that korean he robbed in the end like cliched ass New Jack City? And there were O dogs in every hood fukking 10 years before that movie dropped:mindblown:

Yup, I would love to see O-Dog get bodied at the end and Cain escape :obama: . That would teach a lesson that being a goon will always end badly. M2S was a distorted in many ways.

New Jack City was an updated blaxploitation flick in the vein of Superfly, Shaft, He'll up in Harlem, and Coffy.
Looking for it to be anything more is a waste of time.

an overrated hood movie. I go:dafuk: everytime someone mentions it in the same breath as menace or boyz. It is so over the top with bad acting/dialogue, especially watching it today. And before you say it was specific for its time period your wrong. That shyt looked goofy then. shyt is like a ghetto dikk tracy movie with all those silly outfits, haircuts, etc. New Jack City is trash
