Bad Acting, Bad Storyline, Bad Movie
vdm081330 August 2020
So here I am on a Sunday morning looking for a movie to delve into on this relaxing day. This movie popped up as something that amazon thought I would like. Hmmmmm... I have to say that I was drawn to it because as like the other 5 people watched this....we like Chico. That's it. All I can say is come on my people. We can do better than this. Thieves, rapist, strippers, murders and a little girl who needed her kidnapped mother. I'm sorry...this movie was horrible all the way around.

I GAVE YOU A COOKIE
nogodnomasters12 April 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Cream (Courtney Cameron) is a stripper involved in a custody battle for her daughter Cookie (Aliyauna NyKol). One night, the place is robbed and she is kidnapped and raped. Adam (Chico Benymon) one of the bad guys is sweet on her and tries to care for her while is is a captive. That's pretty much it.

There isn't much of a story line or message, except maybe killers need love too. The acting was bad and the dialogue was stale.

Parental Guide: F-bombs, sex, off screen rape, no nudity.

What's love got to do with this?!?
dawb-4089714 May 2024
I'm going to just start this saying the premise of this film which the viewer figures out after about the first twenty minutes could be considered rather offensive/triggering. As far as the movie itself, there's not much plotline, just a situation the main character is involved in. There's no subtleness to the writing in terms of character, plot, or dialogue. The script is filled with stereotypically written black characters. The Black men are dumb, excessively violent and murderous criminals. The Black women simply lust after such types and are hypersexual figures. If a white person wrote it more than likely critics would have deemed them as racist. The pace isn't too bad but the tone of the movie is rather schizophrenic in how it jumps from attempting to be tense/thrilling in one scene to comical/whimsical the next with little effect on either side. The acting is below average. There's a number of unnecessary scenes included in the film that don't drive the plotline at all. The film's shot decent enough for this level production. The music score is rather generic. I couldn't recommend this film at all based on the subject matter in particular but even from a more general standpoint it's just not too good.

Seriously The Worst Movie
perrie-olivia28 January 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Apart from the acting and every cliché' moment the story line completely sucked. I had to call on Jesus 15+ times just to get through the movie. Unnecessary killing, Stupid stereotypical black women, and racist scenes of black men portrayed as unintelligent, ruthless, rapist whose upbringing made them killers. Found this movie on a social website only watched it because I like Chico but this movie leaves nothing to be imagined, is not thought provoking and I'm seriously happy that it did not make it to the silver screen.

Spoilers:::: No one seems that interested in her kidnapping, so much that when they did talk about her she is already technically dead.

They talked around her daughter like she is already dead.

THE ONLY BLACK WOMAN I WAS PROUD OF IN THE MOVIE WAS THE DAUGHTER!!!! she was educated, friendly and had class.

4 of the three men fine as HELL but you get distorted by the fact that they were OK with raping and killing a girl.

Sorrelli (spell check me on his name) as a comedian and actor needs to stop both, I found him deplorable. His character had no tact, he was just ready to kill anyone who spoke to him.

what was the freaking moral to this movie? I still don't know

The acting and plot is so bad that i question whether or not this movie was written as a satire because everything is so overly dramatic.

One scene as steel is dying she says "My body is getting cold" LMAO!!!!

Sorrelli character shoots Adam and for some unknown reason does an unusual pause turns around and gets shot by creme (im still pondering this bs)

Conclusion If you were looking for a terrible movie to critic, or something to laugh at with your friends or a movie that will totally disgust you and make you look up the director to see what he was smoking when he made this bull-sh*t then this is your movie. :)

Terrible
skwibelz6 September 2020
I am about 20 min and terrible is an understatement for this movie. The acting is horrible and certain points of the movie don't make sense. How there is no security at a strip club? I don't think I'm going to make it through this movie.

Possibly the worst movie ever made
odiggyakastnicky9 October 2020
Thought this would be interesting but as soon as the plot goes into effect you realize how horrible this movie is. Terrible acting.. Terrible storyline... A waste of film. I wish I could give this trash a negative 100!

Best movie
kazaviathomas12 November 2020
I actually loved this movie. I can be honest the storyline in the beginning was a little off but as you get into and have a good understanding, it's a very good movie. I want to see more movies like this especially if they have a good twist to it. I would love to see a part 2💙

Once the story moved past the strip club, it was quite interesting.

Congrats to the Total cast and crew..Good movie..Gangster movie with a love twist..I enjoyed it...!!! Loved the plot, the photography was good also, I like the locations... Hats off to the Director and writer The actors did a great job, I felt the movie.. Its a classic gangster movie , so i expected violence, to establish the bad guys..movie going need for good old fashion, no holds barred entertainment. Most importantly BECAUSE I LOVE YOU is a love story in the greatest sense of the phrase. It is about unconditional love, between a man and a woman, friends, family and especially the love of a mother and her child. I have this movie now,..in my DVD collection.. Good movie..Gangster movie with a love twist..I enjoyed it...!!! I will tell anyone with the time to enjoy this movie....Thanks
