I feel like not enough it's known for brehs to be trashing it so hard. Even the cast is mostly unknowns. The director and the soundtrack seem to be the biggest thing it has goin. But I'm sure most people on here would call Belly some sort of classic.
:yeshrug:
When was the last time a hiphop video director dropped a movie worth watching? Combine that track record with the terrible trailer and that's all the knowledge you need.

I think it's interesting that it's RT score is so high. Historically, movies like this get like 0-40% on RT. Honestly, that alone makes me want to check it out. There must be something good about it. Too bad I live in bumfukk Egypt and it's not coming here.

It has dropped. I figure by the end of the weekend it will be below 50%.

Real fans of cinema would not call Belly a classic outside of its cinematography.

Director X formally Little X is not the selling point because he’s known for music videos. They’re selling c00n shyt.

If he wanted to be taken seriously as a feature director, he should have went the indie route. However, the producers wanted this film to look like a music video. :francis:

I watch the trailer ever so often to try to like it and not seem like a hater. The reviews have aligned with my inklings but ehh. I’ll see it once it’s on Prime Video.

Just saw it and it surprised me

The fight choreography was better than a lot of legit action movies

The story was just alright (kind of silly at parks), but it was tight and the interaction between the characters felt natural for the most part

I liked Trevor in the movie, but his voice just felt too young. He's nowhere near the OG priest

This shouldn't have been called Superfly tho
They could've kept everything the way they did it a named it something else


People are going to give the film unfair hate, but it was done well for what it was

6.8/10

I was entertained :manny:


The thugged out Storm Troopers had me rollin tho

Smow Patrol :russ:





Edit:

And it's better than Belly.. and I like Belly

It wasn’t that bad. Don’t go into a movie like this expecting greatness. I was entertained.

Other than the hair, Trevor Jackson was a decent lead, which surprised me.

Only the snow patrol parts of the movie were cringeworthy.

Lex Scott Davis :noah: Perfection :ohlawd:

Ross was pretty cringe worthy too..

I saw the movie earlier, it was ok..kind of boring would probably have rather watched it on hbo on a lazy Saturday.
