Just saw "Superfly" it wasn't terrible, but they didn't try hard enough. Any episode of Empire has better production values, flyer clothes and bigger sets. The hotep brothers saying it should be boycotted are right, it's one long cocaine commercial and a bad influence on today's culture. They tried to tack on some cock and bull social commentary about police brutality and political corruption, but it was too little too late. If as much time was spent on everything else, as getting Priest's perm right, it would have been a much better film. Still it had some laughs, a couple quotables, surprise cameos and Trevor Jackson held it down as Priest. I don't know wtf Future was doing with the music though, it was as forgettable as the film was unbelievable (people were dodging bullets and ducking machine gun fire and $#hit). It's a man's movie, it's all about us, but in the end the women push the plot forward. I give it a 2 out of 5, it's better than Belly but not as good as Takers.
