The Players Club

Summary: Bernie Mac stole this picture
Review: In spite of the thin plot line and the volumptous semi naked women, the comedian Bernie Mac stole this picture! He played his part of the low life, club owning, hustler with perfect timing and high humor. He made this movie enjoyable to watch!

Summary: This Movie Is Hotter Than Ice
Review: The player who attends the club, aptly played by Sir Ice Cubington IV of Willchester (More commonly referenced as "Ice Cube") is a smashing actor. I would go as far as to say he's at the top of his game for this performance.

The plot centers around a young Player growing up in the hood. Now, you may be thinking he plays sports. Afterall, basketball is popular among the youth of today. But no. He is a player, and women are his game. He goes clubbin rather frequently. I believe, if I watched closely enough, the ratio of nights where he goes clubbing compared to nights where he doesn't go clubbing is approximately a 3:1 ratio.

Anyway, this young player gets into a heap of trouble with a white cop named Oliver (Tom Hanks) and is to be jailed for 1st Degree Player Hatin' on a fellow player. However, on their way to the station they begin to talk. A *hilarious* scene takes place, when Ice Cube wants to listen to the radio, and he changes to a rap station. Imagine the surprise on Tom Hanks' face when he realizes that his newfound companion listens to such zany music! It was truly enthralling.

But I won't spoil any more for you, you'll just have to see the rest for yourself.

Summary: The Crazy and Wild World of Stripping!
Review: This movie sounded stupid when I first heard about it. Who could make a 2 hour movie based on stripping at a club and have it make sense? Obviously, Ice Cube could. This movie stars LisaRaye in her film debut as Diana, who is known to the stripping world as Diamond, a hardworking college student who needs a better way to pay to get herself through school. While working at a shoe store, she meets Trixie (Adele Givens) and Ronnie (Chrystale Wilson). They convince her into quitting her low-paying job and working at The Player's Club, a run down joint owned by a lowlife loser named Dollar Bill (Bernie Mac). When Diana's cousin Ebony (Monica Calhoun) comes into town, she tells Diana that she wants to work at the player's club. Ebony gets caught up in this world and is drowning in the lows of "using what you've got to get what you want". This movie is a thrill ride and the fight scene towards the end is the best part of the movie. Featured in the movie are Jamix Foxx, A.J. Johnson, and John Amos. The plot is perfect and the script is well written. This movie has to be one of my favorite.

Summary: Pretty good, Ice Cube
Review: Ice Cube really stayed within the storyline. I think his view on the strip game and overall money making was straight. He had the funny stuff in the movie with, Bernie Mac, but overall the movie was a big score for me. Good job, Cube.

Summary: AVERAGE AT BEST
Review: TO PAY FOR HER COLLGE DUES, A YOUNG WOMAN NAMED DIAMOND [LISARAYE, IN HER FILM DEBUT] WORKS FOR A STRIP CLUB NAMED THE PLAYERS CLUB. IT DOESN'T REALLY MAKE ME LAUGH TOO MUCH. BUT IT'S A SOMEWHAT INTERESTING MOVIE. IT AIN'T THAT GOOD OF A MOVIE, BUT I'D ADVISE ANYONE TO WATCH IT. THIS FILM ALSO MARKS THE DIRECTORIAL DEBUT OF ICE CUBE, WHO IS MY FAVORITE RAPPER.

Summary: O.k.
Review: This movie did show the life of a stripper. It was O.k. and had funny scenes, however I would never view it as a classic. I would never buy it for my collection either. I pass it everytime on the $8.88 walmart rack. There was a message in the movie (how the stripper was paying for college and trying to save her cousin from that life), yet it was barely noticed with all the sex, violence, and stupid comedy.
