Percentage (2013)

Ant (Cam'ron) and Carter (Omar Goodling) run into trouble in New York and have to lay low with their cousin in Miami. Ant takes on a straight job helping set up charge processing with businesses. He gets the idea to skim off the transactions.Ving Rhames appears briefly. The film lacked action and drama. I was bored listening to people sit around and talk. The action scenes, such as the party filled with naked women wasn't shown, just the boring morning after.The low budget aspect of the film made it a joke.Parental Guide: F-bomb, N-word. Nudity.

Two Bronx hustlers, Ant (Cam'ron) and Carter (Omar Gooding) are in the middle of a major deal, when suddenly the authorities raid the club. Both make their escape and are advised to lie low, so it's off to Miami to stay with Carter's cousin. However, lying low is not a possibility when the temptation to make fast money takes hold again.That's about as exciting as it gets, folks. Percentage is a truly dire experience. The laziness that runs throughout this shoddy caper is inexcusable, covering everything from it's terrible camera work, dull locations (how can you make Miami look dull?), poor direction and woeful acting.The cast list reads well, but everyone looks like they'd rather be somewhere else. Cam'ron leads with a fantastically uncharismatic display (the white b*tches scene is toe curlingly cretinous), Macy Gray gives a rambling, shaky version of her usual shtick and Ving Rhames delivers the most absurd turn you'll ever (not) want to see him in.As for the plot, it's both nonsensical and boring, I mean really boring. Even the action sequences, what little there are of them, are totally inept. There also seems to be huge chunks missing from key points (and meaningless ones) in the movie. Add in the badly handled editing and you'll neither fully know nor care what's going on by the end.Unquestionably one to avoid, this is one Percentage that you'll regret taking a cut of.

There was one reason I stuck with this movie past the first 5 minutes. It is so terrible that it almost became entertaining! The acting, script and performances are just plain bad, but the (lack of) quality in the production takes things to another level. An early sign of what was to come was when the two lead characters were shown sitting in what is clearly a stationary, motionless car. Despite this, one of them repeatedly moves the steering wheel in a an apparent attempt to convince the audience he's driving. I could dwell on such mistakes but it would be remiss not to mention the casual racism. The characters are repeatedly shown demeaning white women (who seem to appear only as prostitutes, strippers or serving staff) with the apparent intention of making themselves appear tough. Racial slurs and needles, bizarre unprovoked aggression towards white women is a recurring theme. Essentially, this feels like it was written, acted and scripted by ten year old's who have spent the afternoon watching rap videos.

Because it's the only enjoyment you'll get out of this steaming pile of horse manure... While slightly better than being vomited on, this movie is so poor on so many levels, that it really is a complete waste of your time.I was quite excited to find out that Macy Gray was in this, and endured what I could of the "script" and "acting" until we see her in the Miami scenes... Oh dear... what a waste that was, she was ******** awful.Ving Rhames also shows up in the worst performance of his career... hope the paycheck was worth it.Just avoid this piece of crap.
