No actor ever in television played a better gangster than Clifton Powell in my book. He is so underrated as an actor. I wish nothing, but the best for this man, period.💯
Not to criticize him, but he isn't on the same level as Lawrence, Denzel, or Samuel, just to name a few. I would rank him below the acting range of Forest Whitaker. Clifton’s roles often resemble meme roles.
@@patrickfalls6819 "Not to criticize him", yet proceed too, Lol!! 🤨🙄🤔 Those are some very skilled actors you mentioned! However, C. Powell is also! He's had some very notable characters over the years and his latter years has some great ones, also!! 💜❤️ I pray you have a very Blessed Thanksgiving!! 🍂🍁💙
YES, Indeed!!!! Whenever Clifton Powell is in a movie ---- you're in for LAUGHS, SILLINESS, A GOOD time, SMILES, ENJOYMENT, GREAT ACTING, just sheer happiness knowing you're going to see his handsome face. I LOVE him in ALL his movies. The movie "Fruit's Of The Heart" was bitter sweet because Lil Mama died, but all the scenes where Clifton Powell was always against Dorien Wilson ( professor Olgevee from "The Parker's), the fist fights, the silliness etc...the romantic scenes. Whatever ---- he CAN act it ALL, & I'm here for it ALL!!!!! LOVE you Clifton, I wish you well in your life !!!!! ❤️🥰🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹👍✌️😊
Met him one time in Vegas back in the mid- nineties at an after fight party - was active duty Navy and Mr. Powell was an awesome, down to earth guy. You would think a star like him would never take the time to have a meaningful conversation, especially at a party in Vegas, with a regular guy like me, but, he just kept asking me about my service and how was it, great guy. I was a fan ever since.
When i see the introduction of any movie, and Clifton Powell's name shows up i get excited, cause i know I'm in for a treat of great acting coming up. His acting is so real you almost can't tell it from real life that's how good he is on screen. 💯
Met Cliff in NY when he was trying to make it. He was doing stand-up in the 80s I think and small roles, He lived with my sister, and I never heard her say he mistreated her. He was cool. I was proud of him when he made it.
I’m was irritated early in. Limiting him to a pimp and street dude in roles. He also played Martin Luther King Jr. in “Selma, Lord, Selma” (1999) along side Jurnee Smollett. Based on a True Story. “Why Do Fools Fall In Love,” as Zola Taylor’s Lawyer, The mentioned “Ray,” his comical role in “Who Made The Potato Salad?” Along side Jaleel White he played a Black Panther , and tons of various Black Characters from all kinds of walks of life. I appreciate his transparency and him saying he learned from his errors and is doing his best to improve.
He a brilliant actor like Denzel Washinton. Powell got the same problem with HOLLYWOOD TYPECASTING. I would love him to play a black panther party movie.
I absolutely love Clifton Powell. Back in the day, my ex and I would either rent or purchase movies and my ex would ALWAYS return with a Clifton Powell movie. I remember teasing my ex and saying Clifton Powell must be his cousin because those would be the only movies he would get. Whenever Clifton Powell would pop up on the screen or come out with another movie, I would always say: Your cousin is in another movie 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. We will forever love 💕 us some Clifton Powell.♥️🖤💚
Clifton. I hope you read this somehow. Lifeling fan. 42 year old Detroiter. Thank you for all the great entertainment and all that you still have to give- your a good man.
Mr Clifton Powell is solid his legacy will be solid he is an outstanding actor today and will be remembered tomorrow as the same congrats Mr Powell I enjoy watching the movies you acting 💯💯
We love Clifton Powell. Hung out with us in Jacksonville Fl back in the 90's when they filmed First Time Felon here. Been looking for him. Come back! ❤❤❤
CLIFTON POWELL HAS A VAST, IMPRESSIVE BODY OF WORK! You should stop the negative hype about this man. I have seen just about everything he has every done, including a powerful role on Law and Order. HE WAS AMAZING. He has played more than gangsters, thugs, or rapists. STOP IT WITH THE MISINFORMATION.❤❤❤❤❤
This man could sit with the best of them.. in fact he could do any of their performances with just as much vigor.. I have a profound respect for his get down.. even in type cast, he could make you forget and take him serious if his role commanded that!
He is one of the GOAT. He owns his wrongs and admits it. He spoke respectfully about his Ex and praised her efforts… yeah he is a real man who is taking responsibility for his actions. Much respect to the guy. A real legend.
He's from Southeast Dc. No wonder he can play those parts so well. Ive always loved him but never knew he was from the "City" thats what we call Washington Dc.
You know, I have been looking at it the wrong way. He’s such a good actor that he made me stop watching his movies because I hated him in some of the roles he played.
Clifton Powell is one of the greatest coldest gangster on the screen he's the godfather on screen he's put in the work he look and act the part I like this great great man acting shit he's a real one the king a great great actor I watch many of his movies king Clifton Powell💯🥇👑
I like his role in the movie Caught Up. lol he played a undercover Gangster working for MOB boss. A long with Bokeem Woodbine Jason's lyric brother in the movie Caught Up .
Cliffton Powell definitely very underrated talent my guy is a true pro @ his craft weather movies ,TV Shows or small plays he is true professonal @ his craft my guy didnt have 2 have the big movies role's in order 2 eat bcuz OG's is doing very very well 4 him self
See, his stage presence is captivating because each word, scene, theme he let's you know, that's what it is. I always thought he could be Eddie Murphy's cousin and then I got his name mixed up with Clifton Davis -- the man is a great actor no matter the role, he's just great at what he does ... I'd love to see him and Samuel L. or Morgan and/or Fishburne in a film together doing something. The main characters I liked is when he played the pimp in, 'Dead President's' -- he really taught the truth to Tate's character to get out of that 'love crap' with a woman who was a ho' ... then his character on 'Roc' during those days when he sat down with the young guy who shot someone in the drive-by, schooling him on how to survive in the pen. I also enjoyed his character in Tupac's story when he played the guy in prison telling them to turn the music down -- I had uncles like that, then you have hard-headed people who want some real shyt to break out over turning music down, the look and stance he gave with his crew telling those young guys to show some respect made me pass out laughing. I did think they could have used him better as 'Pinky' in Friday better in the third one.
I am totally impressed with his entire body of work. His versatility in movies comes across and he kills the parts.I wish him all the best, moving forward and any picture that he's in, I plan on seeing it. #TakeCareOfSasha❤

Mr. Powell is the most underrated and outstanding actor, definitely my favorite. His acting made you feel it, that's how excellent his acting skills are remembered off the screen. On behalf of Black people from the Hood, tremendously thank you.

This dude is a fckn og on the urban movies and some
EXAMPLE OF A REAL MAN,WE HE CAN ADMIT HIS WRONG DOING,ONE OF THE GOAT ACTORS,UNDER VALUED...
Those women who falsely accuse men of SA should be publicly called out, exposed and humiliated because they're not victims but extortionists
💯💯actually, they should face some type of charges!!
Not a single role that wasn't felt or believed.
It's Not easy to make you forget a person is acting when you watch them. Amazing talent.
I totally agree!💯
Fact..
One thing we all can say is he's 1.Hell of an actor.
You gave it up brother truly appreciate you man I'm from Southeast too

What is the tragedy of Clifton Powell??? Maybe I missed it. I heard he is doing good and a outstanding actor.
The tragedy was someone claiming he took their draws, and saying he had a bad temper.
I used to have a HUGE CRUSH on this man, he’s an awesome actor….
I still have a crush 😻 n him, wish he was still on the family business
That man can ACT! Clifton plays gangsters, like DiNero plays mafioso’s.🎉 🎉
