'Dead Presidents' and 'Menace II Society' are both classics to me. There's some flaws but the greatness far outweighs the bad. They made some poor choices after that. I thought they had next in the late 90's/early 2000s but it never happened. I did not like 'From Hell'

Like book of Eli?

Crazy the Hughes brothers spun off into diff shyt. One made a highly acclaimed pac documentary. Other is directing that John wick TV show


It's been over a decade. A collab between them two again RN could be special

Bro, I know this. He joined the bomb squad in the army, remember? Him and Tucker went to marines. He went to army and blew his hand off. Him being crazy and a pyromaniac is exactly why I said it was a dumb heist. He's been fidgeting and weird. Then ends up placing too many explosives and in the wrong places which blows up the truck instead of the back door which leads to a lot of the money getting burned.

Once again, he hired his crazy ass. Hired Tucker after seeing him as drug addict and on the corner. Hired the crazy nikka that was carrying around dead heads and then became a preacher. And ol girl's sister who got a lil too deep into this.

The heist was pure desperation. They may have even been better off it was just tate, tucker, and Keith David and a smaller heist. But he felt so pressured after coming home, being fired at the butcher and having Percy or whatever fukk his baby mom's and have him deep throat a pistol in the hallway.

Even Tucker basically says it when he's like why the fukk are you adding on these crazy ass nikkas?

Everything leading up to heist is amazing for me. I even think the heist and everything leading after is great, but the heist itself was insanely sloppy for someone that was supposedly a tactician in the Marines. Which I think is a whole nother point on the failings of the military at that point.


I think you're on the film forum a lot.

Damn, that's a shame. Gonna have to look into that. Hopefully nothing too crazy and just creative differences

For sure, especially with the potential. Maybe would have worked if expanded to other mediums

Falls apart completely at the end ending with the dumbest heist on earth lmao. but it's a fun movie - doesn't even feel like it's two hours​

Mans at no point in time did ANYTHING tactical in the army, now he around a table giving a mission briefing like he was special ops over there. And why did he have so much faith in Cleon to go looking for this War Criminal like they was brother's in arms? Hell, he would have been better off with Jake 'cause he was the medvac they had over there and obviously ready to throw down without scruples.
