I enjoy sugar hill now that I'm older....very well acted...it wasn't as violent or stylish as NJC and when I was it as a youngster that's what I was expecting.


Blue Hill was decent...a bigger budget would have made it more watchable (I get a laugh out of how creatively the director hides the fact that the lead actor, Payne aka G Money from NJC, is much shorter than his female co-star...if you have low budget..gotta have excellent overall acting and BH's cast was hit or miss


Paid In Full, indeed much better film than what it's lumped in with. ....it's viewed as a typical hood movie but the production values and acting really distinguishes it. I saw a rough cut of the film before it came out.....they didn't get permission to use the music they intended, and that hurt the film.....the Canadian extras and minor characters dimmed the authenticity also....not bad. The book by Azie is very good.



Belly was very well shot flick, but terrible acting by everybody except 3 characters ruined this flick. film was also too blatantly derivative of classic gangster films. I counted 6-7 scenes lifted verbatim from other films.
