Their adult versions kinda held the film back. If they were never introduced it would be a lot better
Watching this movie now. I was going to make a post about how “drunk” Taye Diggs takes points away from the movie. Such horrible acting lol. Richard T Jones did a good job and was funny… the kids carried the whole damn movie though. I do wonder how it would’ve gone if they kept it focused on the kids in middle and high school. One of my favorite interactions in the whole movie was Mike talking to his mom when she ceught him dancing in the living room. That was such a heartwarming moment. L Also the Mike and Stacey character development. This is one of my all time favorite movies

It would be the perfect coming of age movie for black people.

Stacey went from being a Blood Gang member to working in the school. Did they ever say what happened with him?
On an another note

“Nikka don’t even try it. You get your crybaby ass in the back seat. Nikka these lil kids got more heart than yo muthafukkin ass.”

Then when Stacy went to go pick up his sister, you can see Boo in the backseat.

:mjlol:
