Rating: Summary: VERY EMPOWERING! Review: It was my first time seeing this video, and it really touched me.It was about these friens roobong banks, because they needded the money, even if it caused them their life, wich unfortunately did for most of them. It showed how loyal some friends can be even in the bad times. The ending was really sad and made my whole family cry. I really urge you to go see this film, it will touch your heart. It will be wise if you have a tissue box by your side. Very good actresses played in this movie!
Rating: Summary: IN TOO DEEP Review: It was the middle of the night and nothing else was on, so I watched this. It was terrible, although Jada Pinkett Smith is a good actress and you can applaud her character's desire to get ahead in life to help her brother go to college. Unfortunately he is killed by police who mistake him for a criminal. So, Jada and her cohorts, played by Queen Latifah, Vivica A. Fox and another girl with whom I am unfamiliar, turn to a life of crime robbing banks themselves. Pinkett Smith was not cut out for this life of crime, though, and finds love with a bank employee (Blair Underwood of LA Law and City of Angels fame). However, she finds herself in too deep with her friends and their bank robberies, so they plan one last heist, only to end up in very big trouble. Pinkett Smith is the only one to escape (she goes to Mexico), but the story is just not held together very well.
Rating: Summary: TALENT!! Review: It's a great film, with great acting and a great story. Queen Latifah played a shocking part, but she did it well. Jada Pinkett ( one of my favorites) was just as good..., actually all the actresses did a fine job. I defintely recommend people to see this movie.
Rating: Summary: Who's Settin' It Off Now? Review: Kudos to F. Gary Gray. And just think...when he initially proposed the idea no one at the big studios thought that a story about 4 women bank robbers would sell. This needs to be the movie of the year. Friendship, trying to get out of the ghetto and pulling a fast one on "the man." Doesn't get any better than that...and the cherry was the fact that one actually got away with all that loot!
Rating: Summary: They so Fly! Review: Not a happy ending here, folks! Four African-American women figure out that crime has a quicker, and better, pay off than good ole all-American minimum-wage work. Of course, in the long run, their new lifestyle (and the law) catches up with them. A wild ride!
Rating: Summary: Well, it sure ain't Waiting to Exhale... Review: The characters in this story were so believable. One rough and rugged, one sweet and gentle, one sophisticated and wild, and one sensible and laid back. Although these women had such varying personalities, the genuine friendship between the four looked natural and unforced. They lived mundane lives, just struggling to make ends meet. And then, they are faced with trauma that sends them over the edge, one loses her job, and almost her life, in a bank hold-up - and is accused of being involved. Another loses her kid brother after he's shot by police officers when they mistake him for someone else. That's when they decide that the only way to make it out of their situation is to get fast money - by robbing banks. The humor at the beginning of the movie and in the first bank heist disappears, however, as these women become wanted and are risking their lives to pull off one last robbery. By the end of the movie, I felt like I had lost a few good friends.This is a great movie with a combination of romance, humor, and hard-hitting action that centers around a group of women (for a change.) - And they don't go out like Thelma and Louise either!
Rating: Summary: pretty good Review: the film is pretty good when it's focused on the action.but Jada Pinkett-Smith&Blair Underwood drag the film down.Vivica A.Fox&Kimberly Elise are alright in there parts.Ella Joyce is solid as well.but it's the Break-Through performance of Queen Latifah that makes the film worth seeing.she should have won all kinds of awards for this performance.F.Gary Gray has done some very Innovative videos but i don't feel he is up to par as far as being a film director.

Rating: Summary: Off the Hook!!!! Review: This film is good!!!! 4 ladies finally have enough of the tough life, and come up with a sceme to rob banks so they can get out of the hood. All I have to say is surpurb acting!!! Especially by Queen Latifah. She was just convincing as the lesbian tough gal. All the women in this film were great, and the movie was a good, good film.
