Baby Boy is a genuinely moving and involving film, its in my top 10.

Not sure if another film captures the sense of aimlessness and impotence of being a young man as well as this does.

Shame Singleton has directed so much shit along with the good stuff he's produced.

People here don't even watch movies anymore. Plus I'm pretty sure an all white cast would've been met with the same baseless criticism, without the slurs.

This was seriously one of the absolute worst movies I've ever seen. Phoned-in acting, lazy writing, shitty effects - it was like everyone in the movie was doing it because they owed someone a favor and they just wanted to get it over with.

It's not like the topic and theme of this film isn't emotionally draining to the point of exhaustion if anyone wants to tackle it seriously.

I can't watch movies with wiggers in them, it's too painful because I was one for about a year in junior high. I can't wait until time machines are invented so I can go back in time and make my mom get an abortion.

Class Act is underrated as fuck. That shit was on HBO all the time when I was kid.

>You will never be a kid sitting home alone watching TV and stuff like Class Act and Troll 2 come on that are actually good or so bad it's good and then Real Sex comes on and you jerk your kidboner and cum with the force of a billion suns

I can't even get a boner unless the woman is actually touching me or the porn has tranny midgets shitting on eachother anymore. Where did the time go?

New Jack City, Sugar Hill, and Belly (for the soundtrack mostly but it's shot really well too) are the best movies about black people to come out in the past 30 years. I'm not even gonna get into blaxsploitation and shit like Putney Swope that came before that, because that's really the pinnacle of black cinema and there is way too much to name.
