Superfly [Blu-ray] [DVD]

Great CD.

Overall the plot of this movie is pretty predictable, nothing wrong with that, it’s a good take on a trope that is fun to watch. Why you watch it for is Director X to take it over the top and make every movie of this genre seem like it’s dingy with a matte finish. Everything pops off the screen, the visuals and sets are super immersive and it makes it a really fun watch.Dialogue in this movie is a C+ with some for sure A+ one liners. You’ll get pulled out of the movie when some of the less experienced side of the cast has to carry a scene. But Michael K. Williams and Esai Morales just chew the scenery when they’re on screen.Trevor Jackson’s turn as Priest sort of makes the movie. He’s almost the straight man, he’s unbelievably calm most of the time and when he talks you listen. His hair is like it’s own cast member with the amount of attention it gets.TLDR; It’s Scarface meets Driver. Business is king, violence disrupts business, flashing lights and jackets tie the movie together.

Love this movie

I liked seeing all the grandeur of the dress, the swagger and all the beautiful faces, like the characters of Priest and Georgia

Poor marketing and bad timing were two of the main culprits that crippled the potential box office success of a nearly guaranteed premise. Although the original Superfly was more known for its soundtrack than the actual movie, this was the approach taken when making this movie. Unfortunately, too much energy was seemingly put into soundtrack and taken away from the movie. Visually, the movie is stunning and it is like watching a nearly two hour long music video. Back to the soundtrack, as much as they used the music in the movie, they could of incorporated more. Even letting it tell a story within itself without taking away focus from the main plot points of the movie. If these are your type of movies to go to, the two hours are worth your time of admission.

I never saw the original & I don't want to. I loved how this movie was made & how everything came together. Snow Patrol with the all white was a nice touch. I wish the Mom had spoken in ( english ) toward the end. Sound track is nice & everyone fit their character. I'm blk & I don't do blk movies but I enjoyed this 1.

I watched it and I just had to get the dvd so I can watch it whenever. Trevor Jackson is a beast in this movie and you have to watch it!!

Trevor Jackson is perfect in this movie. I think he should make a sequel. No problems with order.

Good movie

A bit far fetched i thought

DVD showed up early ... great story line and the right amount of action. Perfect dvd for any collection

exactly as described & a great movie

Enjoyable movie. Awesome ride.
