This movie was fun. Black and Blue get ah old of a bunch of cell phones and start their own business of hot wiring the phones to work on their service. This movie had that Friday feel. No big production, just a neighborhood that you will swear is only a few blocks from where you live. I almost didn't watch this movie, because at the time I figured it would be a waste of time. I happened to catch it on HBO and after a few minutes I realized that there was definitely something fun about this movie. Well worth purchasing if you like movies like Friday or Don't be a menace to South Central while drinking your juice in the hood. It's just plain fun. Oh yeah, in case you haven't noticed, Ice Cube and Master P both are actually very talented actors. I threw Ice Cube in because he makes a cameo appearance in this one. this movie is the funniest stuff i have ever seen in my life. it is a bonus for me that bone thugs n harmony sing on the soundtrack. i own it anyways. yea this movie has master p-black, and A.J. Johnson, blue, i liked it because it was canasta. i like gangster movies. so go out and get this DVD.
