Why did i give this crap the lowest possible rating - which is still one goldstar too much: This film is produced by Kayne West That is not a spoiler. You can notice before you make the mistake of watching it.No, i am writing the name wrong on purpose. He is too irrelevant to remember, for anything other than being married to a two-legged hippo whose only claim to fame is her self-leaked pissporn.
Man, I don't know why Kanye put up money for this trash. I wish I could get a refund of my Google Play rental fee for real! Dame Dash attempted to write, direct, star-in and narrate this so called gangster flick that was even worse than State Property 2. I get that his ego may be outta control, but let those with talent do what they do best. Bad script equals bad movie and the script was bad to begin with. There were old dudes playing young dudes and big homies younger than little homies? I was confused, but not just by the fact that so called kingpens were chillin' on a car parked on the street and doing the work of foot soldiers, which made no sense either, but what was with all the slow motion, opera music filled shoot-em-up scenes? And there were way to many of them!!! I guess the movie got green lit, because Dame paid for it all by himself, along with a few rich homies. A man who has made millions in the rap game and produced several other urban crime flicks should be over the same old same dope dealing movie, but what Dame Dash's fascination with the drug game is at 50 year old is beyond me. There are so many other black experiences to be told besides the overdone, ghetto ass drug dealing genre. I'd expect black excellence outta a guy of Dame caliber, but somehow he's still fascinated w/ pushing rocks on the block in Harlem. SMH!
Waaaaay too much narrating. The story was all over the place. This was just a bunch of shooting and poorly improvised lines. Yo, Dame! The next time you make a film, "Honor Up" and care what you present to the people that support you. I only gave this 2 stars instead of one because it didn't look like it was shot with the home video camera we bought my father in the 90's.
Damon dash trys so hard to convince us that him and his mates are cool ,but it just doesnt come across on film .the man is delusional at best
