I swear all Netflix movies have a cliffhanger in the end 😭😩
Lovely AriellXo not only movies, the shows too lmao
Facts
Bruh at the end the doctor says that he didn’t make it! And that the police were on their way! You guys wasn’t listening closely
Connie Marie they’re talking bout the final scene when he calls his father..... no one knows why his father didn’t join so he called to ask....
Right and we mostly ain’t getting a sequel. Lame 😒
I wish they would make a part 2 to this.
GraphicArtistprod yes
Goinsane49
I mean ... Where would it even go? Like they explained everything before the end
GraphicArtistprod also for a plot twist some of the bad fraternity brothers are still there. Just so it’s still some suspense.
Real spill. 💯💯💯
Great movie but I found the ending extremely disappointing.
Exactly
Lakita Butler it should’ve went like 30 mins longer
Thats wat my girl said
@@jefejt9656 no one asked...
@@PointMajor_0 😂😂😂
its funny how malcolm told zurich to stay away from blows to the ribs but he was part hell night....
Phenny and Remy lol right
Phenny and Remy exactly!
Exactly. Malcolm should have been the one to stop the hits lol
I'm greek. Its retarded
Just finished watching this....I really want to see the outcome. I hate that Frank died, I really wanted him to be in a coma but the message became stronger with his death. Definitely a good watch. Should probably be shown during movie night on some campuses throughout the country.
And how do u know he died????
@@TheLoc0 literally said he died
Since the ending is left up for debate. Here is my take on what happened after the incident.
The fraternity was shut down.
Somebody got arrested.
The dean and most of the senior staff got sacked.
Videowatcher198 I hope so
Most likely the Big brothers would get arrested??
Fraternities are never shut down. Chapters might be shut or suspended but never the fraternities
Fraternities don't get shut down, only that specific chapter depending on the outcome of the investigation. Dean's and college staff are not held responsible. Seldom do the truth fully comes out.
So basically you hoped for best case scenario
You can definitely tell this was about the Omega Psi Phi from the jump.
Valentina Luma thought I was the only 1
Exactly
Unpopular opinion here but I actually liked the ending. It leaves us with the pain Zurich feels, and the immense psychological pain individuals go through. Ending it on the fraternity closing / something else happening would have shifted the perception away from the individual.
Just finished watching this , this is just amazing.
This movie suppose to make the big screen
Not with that disappointed ending tho.
@@Wh4L205 With that ending it should have have been on the big screen.
@@IncognitoSprax With that ending there should be a second movie.
This movie still ended horribly ! I was mad as hell it ended that way !
I like the ending. We don’t always get a nice one wrapped in a bow. Sometimes it’s raw and unsettling. The movie made the point it needed to make-regardless of having all questions answered it came to deliver a message and did just that.
It's sad to see these vulnerable boys put themselves in these horrible situations (hazing) just so they can feel accepted by those they idolize. You have to ask yourself "is this really worth it?"
Its sad! Those young men are lost & think joining a fraternity will make them into men or someone of a certain status.
I was 1 of those who judged a book by its cover i thought it would be another generic Good looking guy struggles to fit in with another cool group of dudes while he gets the beautiful girl. But it really was a deep movie that had you thinking. And when you watch the movie and see some of the craziest scenes....like i dont know if they were stunt doubles or not....but jesus. The actors were pushed to the limits. Making me think at one point that the director was going too far. That spit scene i still cant get over it lol but in all seriousness its a great movie if you haven't watched it. What are you willing to do to join the "cool" group. Are you willing to sacrifice your self respect dignity and moral to be socially accepted by your peers or are you willing to be you and say fuck what society thinks. With that being said i need a sequel to this movie the ending was powerful but left unanswered questions.
90s Baby AGREED!!! #💯
Well said my brotha
I’m too into my health & well being to be humiliated by some strangers wanting to be accepted. I’m wired differently.
Anybody else realize the main characters girlfriend is the little sister from everybody hates Chris?????? And also i thought after they broke up that he would get with the girl from empire (i know i need to learn their names. Lol)
You said " tonya?"(the girl who worked at the fast food place?)
I didn't realize but that's why she looked so familiar!
I like the concept and lesson of the movie but definetely needed more depth. It felt rushed and honestly kind of empty. I was left shocked by the ending and sad for the characters only because I could imagine what it would be like for young students in real life but not because the characters themselves had enough back story for me to deeply care for them if I'm making sense.
The social message = is for all Greeks to wake up n stop being idiots. The hazing or extreme hazing doesnt breed brother hood instead it I stills hate. Trust me I know from my own process. My line n the line before us hardly even speak.
I was so disappointed in the group, they were so ready to leave their dead friend for school. Likes he’s literally dead and they still out collage before him.
It's BS that 18-20 year old kids .. fresh out of high school .. are being beaten like this (in extreme situations) in collegiate environments. You don't necessarily see how stupid it is until you go through it and have kids yourself
Are you speaking as someone who's been on line?
It's not bs ppl die all the time because of hazing a kid died at penn state this year because of hazing
RN Wilder when it comes down to Sororities and Frats, hazing is not a shocker. Not all colleges do, but some of them do. I’m not saying it’s right (cause it’s not), but I do have friends that experienced hazing.
The thing the bothered me is how none of them snapped. How are they that good at controlling their anger that they throw away self defense.
I know from experience n its retarded
I know this hella late but for those that don’t know an aortic rupture which was mentioned as the cause of franks death is when one of the hearts tubes that intake blood and pumps it out gets blocked or in this case blows up from repeated trauma to the heart.
Good analysis. I really enjoyed the movie.
This movie was very realistic. I really enjoyed it.
Pledging is not like the military. The sense of brotherhood is but hazing is not
There is hazing, it’s just illegal but people care more about making excuses than changing anything for the better.
Dont ever compare the military to hazing
Truth Official he never did compare the military with hazing
@@TruthTheChamp lol there is plenty of hazing in the military
I like the movie and the ending, i dont know why some are complaining, its that theres no need for closure cause u can conjure whats gonna happen a big college scandal that hazing plagues colleges is gonna be in the headline
Just watched it and im totally amazed... i wish there will be a Second part of it.. amazing film just amazing with so many embassies
now I need to watch this movie, amazing video
The movie was amazing.
Black Men, how can disrespectful actions make a Boy a MAN? Great movie. I do believe that every Fraternity has a member that resembles a character in that movie. Sad but True. Being an active member of the Military, I am all for earning everything I recieve. Respectfully.
Everyone’s complaining about the ending but I think it was a good ending. It leaves question but let’s the viewer decide the ending based on how they interpreted the movie. I don’t think there was any better way for this movie to end.
It is a horrible ending if the movie doesn't have a second part.
The ending was terrible! It had potential to be great! He could've turned down crossing and expose the whole under world of hazing, he could cross and change the culture for the next pledges etc
jackpot comedy i think its more realistic this way
jackpot comedy that’s not realistic. The ending was REAL...that’s the point. It ended with NOTHING BEING DONE, no real consequences, therefore underground pledging still goes on to day in Sororities and Fraternities. I guarantee you someone is getting the piss knocked out of them as I type this. SMH. Some underground lines start WAY before the real official line, which opens the door for a longer period of abuse.
Hideki Oira it’s not realistic at all. the negative is always shown more than the positive. now i’m not gonna sit here and say hazing doesn’t exist but, deaths are not as common as people think. but they shouldn’t happen in the first place I think everyone can agree on that
@@ohitzwavy7173 Deaths during hazing isn't "common" but the fact that a death even occurs is the problem. No one should be at risk of losing their life for joining a Greek organization while they are in college.
This ending is as realistic as it gets with this type of hazing. While death is not always the outcome it is a reality. More often than not, with this type of hazing someone is left with major physical damage so severe they can't even with their education. They are harmed for life. And it always leaves a person with psychological traua.
I am so mad I saw this, can’t get my mind off this subject and all the shit that happened in the movie and in real life.
same ! i can barely sleep
Great movie! We want a part 2
This was a nice commentary of this movie.. I saw this on Netflix but was overlooking it until my wife decided to watch it..
I am not in any type of fraternity and I can't and will never understand why anybody would submit themselves to such foolishness. This movie was dark and heavy as shit. It took about 3 days to get it out of my spirit. The music is genius but so heavy..; especially the ending scene.
This is exactly how pledging feels like
This movie is about omega. I pledged omega. I damn near died. My father also didnt finish at my chapter. And the only reason I did is because of school rules n laws. I basically dropped too. 🤔 so what have we learned ? Not a fucking thing !
Is that q dogs ?
Hi I know this was a very old comment but, why did you chooses continue your hazing?
I just finished watching it it's amazing !😭😍😍
Nagham Adil just an amazing film no words
trevante rhodes is in this
RECLOSUR PICTURES THATS BAEEEEEE!!!💦💖😊🤕💸✨👅🌹👀🙈❄️🤙🏾❤
Only reason I really watched im mad they gave him little screen and a bad character he left the kid to diee
my uncles is in this movie
Ok so remember when he asked has this happened to someone else and the guy ignored to answer the question...... what if Zurich’s dad dropped out cuz his friend was the one that was dropped off in front of the hospital too😲😲(Thas how I’m thinking rn)
Cheyenne Pettigrew i was thinking the same thing and wonder if that’s why he called his dad
Uuuhhhhhhhh Im no fraternity expert but that hell night scene didn’t seem like a simple haze. That looked like some gang Initiated type of shit.
Great movie but the ending was a huge disappointment.
Is hazing still happening!!!!!
Probrobly
It is
Yup. 100%
No
yes but it’s a chapter by chapter thing. everyone has a different process and if I can be honest this process is the extreme and also at times far fetched
The hypocrisy of the whole process is the most annoying. When I was seriously injured during pledging, the senior frat brothers were more concerned about getting in trouble than calling an ambulance even though I assured them I wouldn't say anything. Look how quickly "brotherhood" goes out the door. In the end, it was one of the other pledges that snuck a phone call for an ambulance. He got shunned and then quit shortly after.
(Spoiler alert) The ending wasn't ambiguous. It was straight forward. One of the leads dies and the line is confronted with whether or not to report it. Its left open this way because most students don't report the violence.
Great movie! It kinda was one sided but as a non Greek who am I to say what is and isn't. I did however take away from the movie was nobody but the main character and his professor were the leaders in the movie.
What is Mariah Stokes doing here??
Is there going to be a part 2
young Shiner no
Great Movie, loved it. Still pissed at the end though.
im never joining a frat
Fr
Excellent review!!!.Thank you!!!
Why did they keep punching them,especially frank,why’d they keep hitting his stomach/chest I don’t understand
chupaxf he was also inspired through his process seeing as he pledge Omega Psi Phi. but the process is a chapter by chapter basis and a majority of the time the process is(and it should) be more mental than physical. but you’re also allowed to stand up for yourself because in most common situations a brother who’s acting outta line and who’s abusing power like big cee should be handled because what he was doing was uncalled for
@@ohitzwavy7173 I've always heard the hazing process in some, not all, Omega Psi Phi chapters were brutal.
Because they're assholes.
@@drestathagangsta8880 it’s MJs and Shaqs Frat. The most prestigious HBCU fraternity there is…yea not exactly an easy pledging process…
Couldn't hold in the laughter at the "we wuz kangs" speech.
Great movie but the ending had me mad and sad how they did frank
@10:40 she was ahead of her time
This movie gave me Spike Lee “Schoole Daze” vibes
Is it me or does this movie remind anybody else of drumline?
Ong
Hazing is hazing. Doesn't matter if it's to a Greek letter organization or band. It's all the same
So, none of them made the fraternity?
Chasity S. E. if someone dies, gets injured, etc because of a pledging process and the university finds out the university the fraternity/sorority is suspend, members get expelled, charges may get filed, etc.
No because the pledging process would have been suspended after Frank's death. And the Frat would have been kicked off campus.
Thank you Jesus because I was pissed when it went to the black screen in the hospital room
Posted on my bday last year
Same lol
I’ve been through fraternity hazing. It was nowhere as bad as portrayed in this movie. Yes, it sucked, and it was hard. But it was worth it.
Then you weren’t pledged hard. This movie is pretty accurate to many frats.
they should have definitely made a part two but made it about revenge on the men
My first documentary was LOVE ❤️ should not hurt with collaborative craftsmanship from MSW doctorates. Thanks to Dr. Twining Dr Diaz and Dr Turner. HAZING is HELL. Continuity media centered around controlling the temperance. This narrative is about rights of passage. Building from the bottom UP. Write on write on know the story and the characters
HOW CAN I GET THIS ON DVD ?
Bruh if you really pledged, you wouldn't want to do that shit again.
lmfao broken bucks
So to the big brothers, what’s the purpose of the violence & abuse? What’s the lesson & tradition in that? Can someone explain? 🤔
The writer did not do a good job with the ending..I am still disappointed very disappointed
Why would you leave the ending of what happened for the audience to figure out? I'm pissed.
but we know what happened, he died
@@jasonowens1761 And what happened after??? That's what we want to know
Need an part two😩
Great movie
What yall really came for is what frank died from, he died from "Traumatic aortic rupture"
the largest artery in the body, is torn or ruptured as a result of trauma to the body. The condition is frequently fatal due to the profuse bleeding that results from the rupture.
@Zoro I don't live in US 2 man, but i don't think any black gene would accept this period so i don't think its realistic ....if it is, i would be disappointed in my race....
This is late response, but yes this goes on regularly in the U.S. Just google hazing death black fraternity or sorority
I love this movie
I 🤦🤨don't like the ending, they should have shown the consequences for the extremity they did to this pledger!
Exactly!!
There are no consequences. The leaders don’t speak up. Why? Bc they participate in the hazing rituals as well. It runs deep
10:38 did you fuckers edit Alfre Woodard when she said "black lives matter"?
+beastwork Of course not! We would not do that. This is what she said.
ok cool.. thanks for the clarification
beastwork Now you can apologize for jumping the gun and calling them "fuckers".....
Kevin Schart YESSSS!!!! 😮 I caught that!! It went right into "lives matter"! 😒 Well at least that's what it seemed!
What if it was a white fraternity
👍I kept skipping over this one. Then in a moment of boredom I decided to look it up and saw that Alfre Woodard was part of the cast so I decided to give it a look-see. All I will say is I’ve always thought of sororities and fraternities as nonsense and the people who join them as weak sheep...I still do. They are gangs. Period. I have no use for any of them✌️💞
BEST MOVIEEEE EVERRRRRR
but Frederick Douglass crossed Alpha so he can't be taking about Greek organizations
No he didn't. How would he join a college fraternity when he didn't go to college... Even better question, if Frederic Douglas died before Alpha Phi Alpha (i'm assuming that's who you mean when you say alpha) was founded how do you figure he crossed? Unless he had a time machine he couldn't have crossed Alpha. Ya know the whole "06" thing isn't just because they think it sounds cool.
derepa06 yes he did pledge, all organizations keep records and pictures of their members. Its hard for the public to get their hands on all the information.
Majestic Bah he was given honorary posthumous membership. The only person they’ve ever done that for.
Wait a minute so nobody told me frank had an ancient
Frank had died in the hospital after the brother's were waiting for him but he saved Zurich life
Lately producers are too lazy to make an ending to movies. 2 hours a waste of my time.
All of that is real.. trust me...
There shouldve been a better ending with an optimistic outcome The movie shouldve led by Example as opposed to holding the mirror up. Some people need to see that they need to know that there will be consequences and shit can get real. You shouldnt have to endure shit like that for a boys club
I was so pissed watching this movie. How could anyone want to go through such horrendous beatings just to be in a frat. You must have one lonely life if you feel you have to go through something like that.
The ending did not do the whole movie 🎥 justice.
Great movie , Shitty ending #kmt
This was a good movie but the ending could’ve been better
Part 2 me please
Being a member of the BGLO, this film should not be used to authenticate our community.
Milan Massey-Haley I'll preface my comment by saying I am a GDI so I know my words won't have much weight to Greeks (though I do intend to pledge a fraternity this year), but the director is part of the D9 and he does have an insiders viewpoint a GDI wouldn't have. I'll give you that some aspects of the process aren't portrayed correctly, but isn't the point raised about underground hazing valid?
LiveforHM I am not going to be little your comment because you are not Greek, but please do not go around claiming that you are going to join a Greek organization because that is not appropriate. I will agree with the director that hazing is still an issue within different organizations, including non D9 organizations, but the issue that I'm having is that the director, on numerous accounts, has not addressed what are the consequences of hazing. In this interview, he states he didn't know what happened to the main character after Frank died, and that is BS. I know why he hasn't addressed it from a Greek standpoint, but I feel like if he is going to try educate about a situation, to not half ass it.
Milan Massey-Haley THIS IS REAL AND HAZING HAPPENS. THIS SHOULDN'T BE IGNORED
I think I stated that hazing is still an issue, but the director failed to discuss the consequences of hazing.
Milan Massey-Haley Can you then discuss with us what those consequences are? You would know, and I am curious from your perspective. And please don't give me "oh I can't type it on here for you non-greeks ". Let's have a dialogue, beginning with you please enlightening us on the consequences the director failed to show.
I bet can make em quit goddamn
That's so stupid, like why end the movie like that
"Rhetoric of Frederick Douglass?" You lost me with that comment. His influence was not hot air. Bad choice of words in the narration.
+Yolande Moore "Rhetoric" here means the art of speaking and writing. It's a compliment Frederick Douglass, who was a talented and intelligent writer. His words continue to resonate today as demonstrated by the film. Would love to understand what you mean by "hot air."? Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for your response. Rhetoric does have two meanings but the more common use is negative so much so that Webster Dictionary says the synonym for rhetoric is "hot air". I just felt there could have a more positive and complimentary word could have used. Thanks again for the reply.
We know how condescending they can be at times! Especially with the backhanded compliments! Good observation!
Bad ending!!!🤔😞
Ugh, this movie. :(
literally just a bad ending, no matter the goal.
Movie was disappointing
This movie had gay undertones
Wide Awake not really, why is it every time a man professes love and shows care for another man they assume it's gay? Humans feel compassion, nothing to do with sexual orientation or romance.
Wide Awake what was gay about it please tell me?
Wide Awake smh bitches always crying about “slut shaming” “fat shaming” but so quick to assume someone’s gay. Fat hoes man🤦🏽♂️
Terrible ending but good movie. Needs a part 2
This movie was weird. I watched until it got close to the end. It’s not a deep story it’s just about joining a fraternity that has literally nothing to do with life.
