Fun fact, when they found the dog dead in the pull out couch the actress who played Troy said they had to keep shooting this scene cause they couldn't stop the girls from laughing.
Yeah. I think I heard that. And when you look closer one of the friends at the sleepover is trying not to break and holding in her laugh
*QUEENIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!* LORD JESUS TAKE ME NOW!!!!!
I don't blame!! That scene have me dying every time 😂😂😂😂
No cuz why when I watched this movie for the first time ever earlier this year and y I thought they were laughing at the aunt for how she was crying
Tears to this day 😭😭😭
I never imagined this channel would be come such an important and comforting part of my life.
Ikr😂😂😂 I be so excited
😅facts!
True Statement 💎
Same I stg lol
Been here since the pandemic and I ain going nowhere 🤣
Lil kids going to the store that late ain’t stop being a thing until the 2000’s for real 😂
My Aunt had this VHS. I remember watching it when I was younger like is this for kids 🤣 but then again we were watching Friday at 6.
Lol I get why the aspect ratio changed when she went to Maryland, I’m thinking it to be a metaphor about the distorted reality of the family being split apart.
Great review and reaction! This movie is an underrated classic! This reminds me of my own childhood.
I never knew that was the same dude from the warriors and I LOVE the warriors 😭
I loved this movie..the music was on point..in classic spike lee style.
Vampire in Brooklyn where is it?😂
Alright droppin my suggestions: House party 2 and Class Act...pleeease Primm?
Spike Lee directly impacted my childhood from movies to tv and everything else… Spike Lee, he’s an All Star!
Dawg, you gotta do a review of A Low Down Dirty Shame. The movie itself got me cracking tf up with how bad it is so I know you gonna have us crying with roasting tf outta Jada Pinkett Smith
Yo prim try and do either the movies Paid in full or lockdown
You should do bluehill avenue if you haven’t already
So no one is going to mention that one of the kids is DJ Akademiks 🤔
Primm. You are hilarious my Nigga 😂😂😂😂
13:17 look like ice spice
The Cherokee Kid please
I was hoping you did crooklyn yesss😖🫶🏽🥰😩 I noticed one of the 🥷 high on glue was missing an arm😭😭like two years ago. Nd I think that’s ru pal in the store.
I always thought the “stretching” of the movie when she went to Maryland was on purpose bc it was jarring to her to be in such a weird a$$ place 🤷🏾♀️
It is that why’s that part of the movie is like that
I had the same thought. Like it was his weird way of depicting the culture shock. I definitely thought that something was wrong with the VHS as a kid though. Lol
It is. But it's still a terrible choice.
Bra please do the movie Fresh I know you’ll kill that
Spike Lee did in fact do it on purpose and people back in the day complained thinking something was wrong with the film. I think it’s bad lol and definitely wasn’t worth it
This is my favorite movie. Spike Lee changed the way the movie looked to show a literal depiction of how Troy felt visiting a place outside the city for the first time. It was a culture shock for her. Btw the movie is a coming of age story for Troy. I don’t think it was necessarily void of a plot. I literally used to watch this and as soon as it ended rewind the tape and watch it again.
Which is genius because when I think back to visiting different places as a child, thats literally how it felt. Like a whole new world.
@@Bllove292 I agree. Felt slight weird but fun
Same
In which Troy is based on Spike's younger sister Joie.
@@orthotech9758 yes I know. She’s in a few of his movies
For this to be such a deep movie, the commentary had me hollering. You mixed the boys up too. Nate was "Broke Arm Yo" lol and Wendell was the fat brother. The kids did amazing in this movie.
Also "Broke Arm Yo" later played in the show Taina and was a cast member on Sesame street. It looks like he finally starting eating his black eyed peas lol.
R.I.P. Carlton Williams (Clinton) 😢🕊
The aunt who comes to pick Troy up in the airport is actually Spike Lee sister. She plays a larger part in Do The Right Thing. Another good movie to do
Ya. I always think how sweet it was to make a movie about your childhood but make your sister the main character. And she in the movie too
And Mo better blues!
Joi Lee, yes 😀
He did do Do The Right Thing
Indigo 🙏🏾
The movie was about his sister's childhood & what it was like to grow up in a Black family on the east coast. I remember my family going to see this movie plus getting autographs from Spike Lee. The 70s folks kept saying how much they remember experiencing damn near everything they did in this movie .Even though we're in L.A , they could still relate to most of it. I still love & enjoy the memories my family & I had from watching this movie ❤
That's what I'm talking about.
So they were annoying as fuck as kids?
thank you!!!
I'm from the west coast, midwest, and the islands, and could relate to pretty much everything in this movie 😂
Primm missed out lol
it's coming of age - it's remembering simpler times - it's black family chaos - there's the artist vs finances debate when raising children (he missed the scene where mom falls down the stairs and busts her ankle, then tells dad to get out) - there's the idea of a neighborhood where you actually knew your neighbors - kids still playing outside
NOTE: the Auntie and Uncle that picked Troy up from the airport cooking back to Brooklyn was Spike Lee's sister Joy, she's been in several of his movies and does things behind the camera as well - and Vondie Curtis Hall, the dude who played the bathroom attendant that recognized Eddie Murphy in Coming to America
(first thing to come to mind that many ppl would remember him from 😂 - though i know he's done plenty of other stuff - also in front of and behind the camera)
AND this was the last summer he remembers before his mom passed away when they were all still tryna grow up
there's so much to be had with this movie
PLUS the sdtk!!!!
**RuPaul**
a bunch of All Stars in it...
@Primm
Damn bro, I hate to sound corny but that's some special shit lol
I guess by today’s standards, this movie is considered boring but that’s the same reason it’s endearing. It represented a lot of people’s childhoods and real life, can be boring.
The "stretched " scene is to show how uncomfortable she is. She's not home and in an alien place. It's attempting to make the audience feel the same, and from your reaction, it worked. I absolutely love this movie! I can't watch anymore cause it's so sad, but I love it!
Good analogy but actually false! Spike said in an interview the reason why the virgins scenes look like that because they were accidentally shot in upfront widescreen format
@rowlaanbennett7296 it was 1994. They could fix that if it was the case. If he did say that, I'm sure he was joking. If it was a mistake, he'd be the worst director on the face of this earth.
I'm 42 now and literally crying🥺 Hits different when you're a Mom with your own kids
@@DreamcastFreak You said it. For real spike Lee is a garbage director. He was involved in a few good movies but it really didn't have much to do with him. It was mainly thanks to the cast and crew. Spike Lee is the black George Lucas😂
@@DreamcastFreak they literaly telling you it was a technical mistake and you like "nah, its actually symbolism" lol you in denial bruh, its ok, movies should be interpreted by the audience regardless of directors intentions, but at least admit they made a mistake and you looking for thing that aint there
You’re wilding bro. This movie isnt boring at all. Seen it a million times…and it never gets old..
amen
Facts! I think he just saw this money to review it. I didn’t realize that old boy only had one arm until I watched it on DVR and could pause it
Facts! My favorite movie of all time, will never get old to me.
It’s boring
@@NAMEKDENDE if you’re used to Tubi movies…you would might think it’s boring. It’s real life…and real life is 80% boring.
It’s nothing boring about it, its a classic. Back then we didn’t need so many quick thrills
Exactly.
Exactly
Exactly
Exactly
It's boring. But boring doesn't really equal bad unless it's meant to be exciting. For example I just watched "Severance" it's nine episodes and each one is almost an hour. It's plot moves slowly and its main cast is very small with like 10 important characters with only 4-6 routinely being on screen most of the time. It's boring but it is good and popular among viewers.
I want to see you do Black Dynamite now since you brought it up. So many memorable ass quotes.
Donuts don’t wear alligator shoes.
I threw that shit before I walked in the room!!!!!!
Especially the TV show that shit funny af
Too many quotables in that movie 😂😂
but Black Dynamite i sell drugs in the community!
I absolutely forgot this existed. This whole movie gave me a horror vibe but I was like 8 when I saw it and didn't understand any of it. The glue huffing scene traumatized me all over again
Wait LMAOOO WHY??
Ima be honest as a kid i didn't like this movie felt hated most of the characters
@@SolaceMcflyI still hate most these ignorant ass characters to this day lmfaooo
U sick to forget this classic
Nah but fr i got horror movie vibes from it too 😂

@@qoscarjenkins9527And Great Grandma. She Looked Younger And in Good Times She Looked Older. Next Year She=100 Years Old.
Fun Fact: Spike Lee is actually the baby. At the end where the aunt is talking to Troy about her dress for the funeral, that's Spike's big sister in real life ( Indigo in Mo' betta blues" ). She was Troy for real...
Spike is definitely Clinton, New York knicks Superfan with big glasses, movie posters on his walls, and being the oldest of his kids
You have to watch more movies or something because Crookyln is a piece if art. The whole movie is from Troy's perspective as a kid in NY in the 70's so of course it's not gonna have adult dialogue.
I think “Thin Line Between Love and Hate” should be done frfr
Yes I said that too!!!!! Cause martins ass deserved everything he got in that movie!!🎥
Alfre Woodard was the Viola Davis of the ‘90’s/early 00’s with all the strong mother roles she was cast.
Side note, I thought Troy was in Southern Virginia for the summer.
Finally, when are you gonna cover Colors? That should be the next review; that or The Principal.
Factz she really was
Or the substitute!
Troy was in Virginia Baltimore don't look like that
Facts! And right, I could've sworn it was Virginia.
The cut from “You need clinic aide!” to the pitcher of lemonade was too good 😂😂
EDIT: Primm, you gotta do a Hood movie review of Original Gangstas or Trespass!
😭
Yooooo!! I hit up the comment section immediately after I saw it 🤣😂
@@tshokoboi same 👍
Time stamp?
@@luchalerae76872:04 🤣
I love this movie. I lost my mother back in 1992. Crooklyn was so relatable and it was my go to movie when i missed my mom. Matter of i hope hulu or peacock has it. Thank you Brother Primm.
Yes Primm, this is Brooklyn in the 70s. I'm 46 years old and grew up in a "Spike Lee Joint." Loll. Our Hawaiian neighbors had a rooster. We had a shoeshine man (Mr. Flanagan) on the corner, a watermelon truck in the summer, splashed around in the Johnny Pump and ate black eyed peas for dinner.
Right now, there's a man who plays his saxophone in the backyard behind me every morning. People are still loving and making big families. Crooklyn is a cinematic masterpiece. 🎬🙌🏽
I watched this movie a thousand times, and didn’t realize he ain’t have no eyebrows until you pointed it out 💀. Having all them kids of course they gone be rowdy, they hard to keep up with 😂
This movie although it didn’t have a dramatic plot, there is one- a snapshot into a black family where the mom isn’t as valued as the glue until it was too late. Husband and wife dynamic as well when they have two different
Approaches to a few issues shown in the movie and the strain it
Could cause.
It also highlights Troy coming of age as well as her brothers mn but specifically Troy in relation to her relationship to her mother and
Her understanding
Of being a young lady. There’s other themes
In here but I feel it
Beautifully showed the
Stuff I listed. She becomes her mother/ young woman as she steps in due to her mother passing. His approach to tell the story to me was like making us another member of the family, we’re
Dropped in the middle of their day to day. Its also kind of saying our kids are watching us even when you think they aren’t.
Well said!
Yeah all that is not plot though.
@@mitijr2031 that’s your opinion and this wasn’t up for debate.
@@ItsACTION386 No one's debating you lol Plot is clearly defined in storytelling. It's not a matter of opinion. It's like if someone says a song has no chorus. That's not an opinion. Plot, like a chorus is clearly defined.
😂
It traumatized me when i was young and she hit the guy in head with baseball and he had a lack of reaction while bleeding and drugged up
The nigga was talking about ‘Spoiler ahead’
Her dead mother. He deserved it, and knew it!
Same.
That was in her dream it didn't really happen it was something she wanted to do in real life but couldn't
Word that seen fd me up as a youth
Same bro.
"I'm from Maryland...It's not that stretchy" 🤣🤣🤣
I took the roast of this movie personally 😄. You have to have lived the 70s to truly appreciate the nostalgia of this movie and the beautiful simplicity and innocence of that decade. Thank you for the fun fact about the eyebrows, lol. Now I finally understand that the change of lens represents a different Troy sees this new world she is in...still hate it though, lol This movie is my family to the T from the parents to the order and gender of the children to spending the summers with my only child girl cousin. Just like 😢 experienced the change of dress, hair, environment and lifestyle so did I. I don't even see groups of kids outside playing anymore unless it's school or organized and thats just sad. And just like the actors in real life, my oldest brother died, and I became a teacher like the actress. It was my father who passed away, not my mother. This movie means so much to so many ❤
Ok! I don’t know who this YTer is but based off this content piece alone ion like him lol 😆
Hope you check out Fresh (1994) sometime soon.
While it's not action-packed, it certainly does have its charms with its plot and characters that reside within it.
Seconded
I'd love to hear Primm's thoughts on Chuck-E.
This is the one!
This!
He already did Fresh I don't know why he deleted it.
I remember Spike Lee saying that the reason he choose to change the aspect ratio when the family arrived in Baltimore was to reflect Troy's perspective of being in a foreign place. It was all brand new to her.
I always thought that was the reason. I hate that part of the movie
Reason he CHOSE, not CHOOSE
@@PetrodollarDealEndedSoWakeUp thank you for the correction brother
My concept of the aspect ratio switch for the Maryland segment is because it’s a weird and unwanted experience for Troy so he’s simply just capturing the odd experience while altering our visual perception as well
Yeah! I got it right away. Because that is how I would feel in new situations.
This movie was not boring. It’s so nostalgic even tho I’m born in the 90s I just remember watching this as a kid. Classic movie
That's why it's not boring to you. Nostalgic bias. Without that, it's definitely bland.
@@alexf9381I'm only 18 and love this movie. Y'all just like ratchet tubi movies too much to appreciate anything else
The parents were fighting and considering divorce because dad wasn't bringing in any money. It's an important driving motif in the plot. As a kid, you miss it, but as and adult, it explains how Troy ended up going away for the summer. Send the younger kids away for the summer while we figure things out.
Also, Troy going away made the camera stretch out becuase it was like a dream sequence. Nothing was real to her, everything was strange. The camera effect conveys that subconsciously.
Or, that's just my interpretation. I love this movie.
That stretchy shit just made me think the site was broken. I tried watching it from an angle but the subtitles squashed so I just gave up.
I absolutely loved the stretched ratio. It made me feel just as uncomfortable as she was. Freaking incredible! I'll never forget it
As kids some might miss it, but people even at a young age can comprehend quite a surely.
He ain't got no job, he a broke movie dad! 😂
Yeah, and how is your tenant paying rent and has no lights? But they were about to go on vacation? 😅
I broke my arm right around the time this movie came out on video and our dad strict af. Do you know how many nights my broken armed ass sat the table staring at kidney beans on the verge of throwing up? Middle kid of 5. this movie hit so close to home when I was a kid.
Hood classic.
“I don’t like the 70’s. I don’t understand anything?!” Primm gotta rate the decades for us.
They all trash except the 90s. 90s a Allstar.
Primm was born in 1992, how tf can he rate a decade he didn't live in.
@@extremeking425 he really a hater
@@extremeking425I Admire Decades Before I Was Born.
90's babies complain about everything they don't understand
The way Troy was looking at her Aunt while she was singing 😂😂😂 This movie was a classic to me, sad as hell towards the end but at least they had each other.
This movie is black slice of life icon. If you grew up in the 80s you did alot of this. And the Maryland trip was so the parents could catch up on the bills. Like back then you could depend on family to do stuff like this. Like I went to Mississippi with my great grandparents plenty of summers
He missed some parts on here:
The nightmare part.
The young couple making out
In the steps.
Also the girl accusing her of shoplifting.
I'm amazed he didn't talk about
Them parts.
I just lost my mom at the beginning of the year, so watching that review and seeing that part in the ending and losing my dukes the same way literally made me cry
🫂 condolences 🙏🏾 to you and your family
Sorry for your loss. 🙏🏿
I feel your pain. Lost mine back in August and this scene got to me too.
i’m so sorry for your loss ❤
Condolences 🙏🏽
That random "MMMMM" after the mama told Clifton she'd knock his teeth into tomorrow made me laugh. And was that really Bookem Woodbine sitting on the porch with the little kids?
Yup that's him
Bokeem the Legend
Yes, one of his first roles
My late mom’s favorite movie. She loved it b/c it reminded her of her childhood. Your analysis of this made me laugh my ass off and think of her 😂❤
The dog food jokes were on point 🤣
I used to watch this movie SO much as a kid and I never realized dude was missing his eyebrows lmao. I KNEW you were gonna single out that Ru Paul scene though haha. That part was so surreal.
Y’all oblivious lol bruh I know this movie word for word
How y’all missin obvious stuff 😂
@@uncoverthetruth8365congratulations...your cookie is in the mail 😂
I don't think you've done it yet, but a review of Low Down Dirty Shame would be AMAZING. Blankman might be good too, but I haven't seen it since childhood.
Omg both of those are two of my favorite movies!!❤️❤️
It amazes me how much Troy got from the store with that little change. Born in the 90s watching this on VCR every other day my mom always tellin me she hated black eye peas every time that scene pop up 😂. I’ll recommend this movie to anyone 6.5/10
Agreed I rate it 7.5
The comfort and nostalgia alone warrant a higher rating imo
Troy spent maybe $2 of Clinton buffalo nickels she stole when she took the Knicks tickets then Vic went to jail for punching dude next door in the face
Yes a dollar went a long way back then
I definitely was related to that scene of sitting not eating the black eyed peas because ewww I hated them when I was young and my grandmother would make me sit at the table until I ate all my food
This is my favorite movie i grew up in the 70s playing mother may i and onentwo three redlight when music was real music and neighbors looked after one another it was such a fun time growing up in the 70s the boy who played Clinton died after this movie in real life from cancer, i will always love this movie😊😊😊
Two things could have caused the stretchy ratio:
1. It could've been a creative decision to signify how disconnected Troy's summer felt since she was away from her immediate family.
2. There could've been a technical issue during filming which resulted in stretching the ratio to fit the rest of the film's ratio.
1st guess is correct. Confirmed by Spike himself. You could’ve/should’ve researched and confirmed on your own. Takes only a moment. Just as quick as guessing.
@@PetrodollarDealEndedSoWakeUp lol, some things are common sense but I guess common sense ain't common to some.
this is Spike Lee
it's the first one 😆
@@ummeiguess absolutely, lol
As someone who grew up with this movie, I think (totally an opinion) the reason the aspect ratio changes is to simulate Troy being in an environment that doesn't fit her. As much as she tries to make the experience what she is used to (jumping on the bed etc.) It will never be like being back on the block. Being home.
I'm still waiting for Vampire In Brooklyn 😢😢
He'd have a field day
This is literally my favorite Spike Lee movie. It hits close to home
PS: That "sumo" game is called Dog and the Bone in Guyana, South America. It's a game of speed. Ya gotta grab the can as fast as ya can and escape with it.
its pretty sad how most kids never play outside these days.. you literally had gangs of kids roaming the streets, like your mom would kick you out the house and tell you to get back before supper
The world changed people became more dangerous
or before the street lights came on...
We where outside
No place is safe for kids anymore tbh hell not even schools
@@Spoiledkittyyyy na they need to be outside get out the house obesity will set in with no movement
primm's finally getting into spike lee territory. can't wait to see what else is in store. also, since you put in that clip from The Warriors, that should definitely be added onto the docket.
He gotta do *Jungle Fever* now
Can you do "He Got Game" next?
I hope he put that “SHOE PROGRAM NIGGA” line from training day in that video fr
@@CountryChristmasCripple It's SHU program, meaning Special Housing Unit aka The Hole
I loved that movie. Even as a southern black girl in the 90’s it resonated with me. The eldest daughter being a 3rd parent, the food stamp booklets, the staying the night with the “bougie” cousins 😂. This and Inside Man are 2 of my top 10 movies.
You should do a review on the movie "Fresh" (1994). Amazing, action-packed hood movie with a great protagonist. Also, Samuel L Jackson is in it, as is Giancarlo Esposito! Great performances and writing all around.
The last dragon needs to be on your list
💯
Sho'nuff
Yaaaassss ❤
DONT HURT THAT *FACE* BABY!!!!!!
I got something real for yo ass in these hands!!
-The Shogun of Harlem
Classic.
First one here. I’m a allstar
I think the film looks stretched in the Maryland scenes because it’s supposed to signify the days feeling longer (being outside the city in a slower, calmer- more boring place) I also recommend doing the last dragon, set it off, or low down dirty shame .. those are all great options for good hood movies with a lil bit of action going on
I saw Crooklyn in in the theater as a kid. Always thought it was a strange movie. All of the games the kids played have died off, Spike Lee had to teach all the actors how to play them. Kids don't go outside and hang on the street anymore.
I heard this too
The 70's was not weird. The 70's was the bomb.
Agreed. A lot better than what i see these days in a lot of things. I was too young to get a job, but saw many people without degrees getting good paying jobs, and people just treated each other better, or from what i seen.
Right! Everyone say the 90s was the best but the 70s created the 90s
@@grandpahouseTrue we took those times for granted.
"New Jersey Drive" 👍🏾 another Spike Lee Joint!!!
I did a report on this movie for my sociology of families class. It’s a coming of age story about a lower income family who’s only daughter has to fill her mom’s shoes as caregiver and matriarch, after her mom passes.
Yes!!
Amen! Been there!
Literally my favorites childhood movie
The Black Dynamite jingle had me dying. 🤣🤣🤣
The reason the aspect ratio changes in Maryland is bc it was so different from NYC it seemed like a different world
Low Down Dirty Shame would be a dope review.
Great review bro do "get on the bus" another spike lee joint
The possums was the little boy that liked Troy and his homies. Spike Lee and the dude with the arm was Snuffy and Right Hand Man.
I remember actually half way enjoying the movie when watching it as a kid. It was also painful. It reminded me of a lot of aspects of my own childhood coming from a big family of brothers and sisters. One family member getting sent away to experience something new and different and kind of escaping the chaos of a poor big family. I also was curious about such a different setting as New York and the kind of life one in my situation would live in a totally different setting. It also made me never want to visit new York. It l looked rough. Idk why it was made and it's true there was no story line except random slice of life but it made sense to me as a kid and it made me appreciate my life and family more. It was an interesting look into a setting I had never experienced before and it felt real and relatable as if I was there. It somehow added to my knowledge and concept of living in the world because I was so young when I watched it in the 90s. It actually is kinda of a core part of me because it exposed me to another perspective of human existence when I was a still forming opinions and thoughts as a child.
Also, I think I enjoyed the second half of the movie more than primm because I'm a woman and was a girl watching the movie at the time so I related more to her in the movie than anyone else
Same, not only a lot of siblings but I'm the only girl with 6 brothers all raised under the same parents. I was also a tomboy that also went to my middle class aunts house one summer where she straightened my hair. I feel like Spike owes me for using my likeness 😅
This is one of my favorites. It's a coming of age story for Troy. Spike wrote this about his sister.
Facts.. real Spikeheads know
i was born in the 80s, but my childhood was basically what Spike Lee depicted in Crooklyn.
All except for the sounding of the horn for dinner, cat-throwing and the glue-huffing. 😆
BTW, Troy snuck out to the store that night.
Our corner store was only four doors down from our house, but we kids were not allowed to go there after the street lights came on.
What i don't understand is people dogging Crooklyn for not having a "plot".
i first saw this movie when i was 10, and it never occurred to me that there wasn't a plot until i was a teenager.
It didn't matter to me because the movie was so well put together.
i understood it as it was and i loved it. Most likely because it resembled my own experience.
You thought the Maryland segment was boring???
i think the "stretched effect" of Maryland was meant to illustrate how the Carmichael family entered into another world. It's kind of how i felt when i would leave inner city Philadelphia to visit wealthier relatives in the suburbs.
It's an effect that i remembered seeing in 1960s/70s musical films as a kid. It didn't make much sense to me either, but i just accepted it as an "old movie" thing. Very much of it's time.
i always felt that Viola killed the dog, but she seemed genuinely shocked to see Queenie pop out of the sofa bed.
THAT scene kept me laughing for a good decade. 🤣
i am curious, Primm.
How old are you?
LEGIT my favorite childhood movie, this story is VERY similar to my childhood, 2 older brothers with my mom and dad, I was a kid in the 90's so I was the EXACT age of Troy maybe a yr younger. I SWEAR the 90's was like this, but a bit more modern, everybody was outside everyday, it was always something. Kids, teenagers, young adults. Playing freeze tag as a young'n while jumping over the older kids playing craps on the sidewalk. the adults outside playing dominoes while the boombox playing Ice Cube in the background. I grew up in Inglewood, Ca. These kinda movies really make me appreciate my childhood and the 90's and the gift of life before the internet.
My hoe ass cried when Alfrie Woddard’s character died(and will EVERY TIME😂)
You need clinic aid kills me 😂lol
All about the Benjamins should be your action packed movie
Completely agree it’s one of my favorite films funny hood movie
I like how Primm was shocked and confused at the idea of kids playing outside
Primm we need an episode on Roll Bounce.
The dog getting caught in the sofa bed was the funniest thing I've seen on screen 🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I used to rewind that part of the movie. It was hilarious to me as a kid😂
Can't think of any action packed hood movies, but some suggestions...
Sugar Hill (1994)
Money Talks
Paper Soldiers
Money Train
Blue Hill Avenue
I'mma say it again, Fat Joe and Mack 10's "Thicker Than Water" needs to be the next movie you review. Them dudes don't care about the flick so much it's freely watchable on UA-cam and been that way for a minute.
My dad put me on that pretty good considering they made it themselves
I’m tryna be like Primm when I grow up
Primm is a national treasure 😊
He an all-star.
