"Belly" 20 Years today

Im not even a fan of Nas as a rapper....but yall talkin about he cant act just cause hes not some super amped up livewire type dude like X. Most street dudes are swagless and nondescript.

he clearly herd what hype said and was trolling for comedy purposes

this wasnt even nuanced

movie definitely grew on me. its just a nice movie to have on now, been playing in my house for years.

nas couldn't act in it. he's not a good actor yall, thats ok to admit. dmx and method man were good though. plot sucked but it wasnt the worst thing ive ever seen

No!

That’s between She’s Gotta Have It and Do The Right Thing.

Love Jones is very artistic too but more in the dialogue than cinematography.

Agreed

It's not clear at all.

Iconic opening scene

 

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

how is this a thing?

maybe I need to go back & re-watch? or are they just forcing the legacy of this movie?

I remember mad people hated it 20 years ago.

This movie was comically ass when it first dropped, it became a “classic” over time, somehow. I always fukked with it tho, one of them situations where you know something is kinda ass but you still like it, lol. Only really good scene was Ox gettin slumped and that shyt was just the Yard version of the final scene of Scarface.

Shorty can’t eat no books

Movie gets wrongly hated on…it’s entertaining…and I always liked the cinematography…it’s not meant to be Oscar worthy
