WEEKEND MOVIE PICK: “NEW JACK CITY”

new_jack_city.jpg

If you’re waiting until the theaters are unpacked to see “Why Did I Get Married?”, then you might opt for a nice Blockbuster night at home. Weekend movie picks will feature a throwback film from the past and why it’s so worth it to watch it once again.

As you can see, this weekend feature is the classic film “New Jack City” starring Ice T and Wesley Snipes. After seeing the New Jack Swing dedication on VH1′s Hip Hop Honors and meeting r&b singer Christoper Williams this week, I had a sudden urge to watch one of my personal favorite movies of all time. The movie follows cocaine lord Nino Brown with his “Cash Money Brothers” as they take over an entire apartment complex. Ice T and Judd Nelson play undercover cops who go in to stop them.

I mean who can forget this film and some of its memorable scenes and characters? Pookie, Duh Duh Man…and did I mention the soundtrack to the film? (don’t front on Color Me Badd!) The most classic line however, comes from the scene after the cut…

  14. Classy

    This is my favorite movie of all time. Wesley is superb in this movie. I think he pkayed a gangsta much better than Denzel in “Training Day.” Snipes was so believable in this role that I still call him Nino Brown to this day.

  15. “Step off GRANDPA” Love me some N.J.C. See, the richer Chris Rock became, the less ugly he became!!!!

  16. Kenny

    That’s my fucking movie right there

  17. Mz Coko

    LOL@17…step off grandpa! keisha was cold blooded:

    eh, yo, nino, let me smoke this old dude!

    This is in the collection. Next one…JUICE!!

  18. natural mystique

    At the conference room table after the drug- lab fire, as Nino skips rope:
    “Don’t nobody know nothing? Well I’ll be a muthafukka.”

  19. B-Angie-B

    Woooooooow! these are some great comments you all are making.This movie is a classic,and it is one of my favorite.

  20. That's Wassup

    Another classic line where I’m sure everybody was like I know he didn’t just say that was..
    Scotty – “I wanna shoot you so bad my D&#8 hard!”

    T I was just arrested for possession of fully automatic weapon here in ATL in a walgreens with Young DRo in a local Walgreens on his way to the award ceremony tonight….. they let Young Dro go though……the searched his College Point home and took boxes of s)))t!! Developing……

  27. Tearose33

    He purchased weapon from an under cover…..

  28. Shag

    Denzel’s new movie, American Gangster, is based on the same guy New Jack City was based on: Leroy Nicky Barnes. BET has a show called American Gangster, and there was an episode on Barnes. That BET show is excellent and chilling at the same time.

  29. GREAT MOVIE..ME & MY HUSBAND WILL WATCH THIS TONIGHT..HE WILL HAVE TO PULL THIS FROM THE DUSTY SECTION..

  30. Softest Place On Earth

    Yeah Wesley did a excellent job in this. I can still enjoy this movie til this day.

  37. I remember I was WAY too young to be seeing this movie & I can’t believe they let us buy tickets. Who am I kidding? They didn’t care!

    I remember being SO scared of Nino Brown! One of my favorite lines was from Vanessa Williams: “Rock a Bye Baby!”

  38. jscene

    This was the movie that made me love some Allen Payne. Christopher Williams MMMMMM

  41. That's Wassup

    @44 Fine N Mellow

    I know that was the movie that got you looking at Allen Payne. Remember he played in some episodes of the Cosby’s I liked him then. I was too young to see the movie when it first came out, so I had to see it lata (my moms didn’t play! lol) and when I saw it I was like Lance what you doing up in this movie? lol.

LOL!!!!! THAT WAS A LINE EVERYBODY STARTED USING AFTER THAT. P.S. ALLEN PAYNE WAS SOOOOOOOOO FREAKIN HOTT!!!!

  51. shoefiend74
