Always Outnumbered Always Outgunned

This movie is based on a novel (same title) written by my favorite author Walter Mosely. Starring Laurence Fishburne. This movie shows how big a difference a man can make in the lives of others, even when he has very little to offer. Enjoy

[@berrie-badopinions]

To this day this is my favorite movie of Lawrence Fishburn's. Even more than The Matrix, if I saw him in real life I'd call him Socrates instead of Morpheus.

When my parents got divorced my mom moved us into the hood because it was the only place she could afford. I felt very lonely and keep my thoughts to myself. There was a nice African American man who would always be kind to my brother and me. I think he could tell I was a bit lost. Eventually my mom re married and we moved out but I always remember how the man would say hi and talk shop with us just to make us feel more welcomed. This movie made me remember how some people are good and kind hearted with no one realizing it.

It's refreshing to watch a movie that actually makes you care about the characters and feel what they feel. 👍👍

[@jeffcampbell2710]

That's one thing new movies, mostly since 2000, are missing today. That, and CGI took the reality if life away, nothing but something created on a computer, Actors in front of a green wall. J think that's one reason actors today aren't as good, they don't feel the scene, they can't see the scene to be part of it. Movies in the 70's and 80's, especially the 80's, were much better. Made for TV are better than this woke box office crap today. They worry about what color, country, gender the actors are from instead of who's got talent. I don't go to movies to see that, I can see all that at Walmart. I love seeing the old rides in these movies. I'd like to have that suburban they. Was hanging around.

Bought this movie from a video shop in 1998 for $3 cause it wasn't renting well. Whole family watched it and it is a family favorite!

Even though the kid was not his, I am glad that Soco took it upon himself to become his guide because he did not want him to become a statistic. Soco also knew that as the boy got older, adversity would always be around...somewhere and he wanted to help him to grow to become strong and assured, not a broken man. By helping him, he was also helping himself.

Man, when Darrel drives away with the family is a bitter sweet moment. It’s sad, but also makes you hopeful that that young kid will have a chance at some sort of normal life. Even with the state helping support his foster family, Socrates still offers to send money to help and with his last goodbye of “he don’t eat too much..” you can see the sadness in him. A shadow outlined in sun light. I can’t wait to start this book and get to know more about these characters and world that the author, Walter Mosley, created.

I bought this book ("Always Outnumbered, Always Outgunned") at a library sale in '97 or '98; since then I've been one of Walter Mosely's biggest fans. His writing is simple, with an uncanny ability to make complex social issues easy to understand and comprehend. I've read just about everything Mr. Mosely has written (his sci fi novels are first rate!) and he never fails to bring a totally different point of view to so many of our societal ills. Socrates Fortlow is just a street smart, modern day version of the philosopher he was named after, and he routinely schools everyone he comes into contact with in how they should be living. Socrates gets another story ("Walkin' the Dog") which delves further into his backstory. Anyway I ordered this movie from Amazon years later and still watch it; I admired Socrates so much that I named our first family dog after him.

[@Megaman.ExE7]

A few things to note after watching this masterpiece. Socrates obviously has PTSD. The opening clearly shows you his haunted past and how, despite his time served, he still walks with the demons of his past actions. Another example we see of this is when he strikes Darrell at 42:29, after feeling the need to aid Darrel in doing what's morally right by telling his mother what happened to her son. The cries of a sad mother reminded him of his past actions, when he took the lives of his wife and the man she was cheating on him with. Socrates is actively dealing with PTSD and it clearly greatly affects his judgements throughout the film. I wouldn't necessarily call Socrates "Good" or "Evil" since he goes out of his way to ensure Darrell is on the right path and even insists that he would take custody of him. Yet he claims that at 58:10 that it's better to "kill a black man, than to turn him into the police." This statement, taken with a grain of salt, shows his mentality as a prisoner, a black man, and an ex-con at the time, and how he despised being in prison so much that he would never send another black man to the same fate. But death isn't a valid solution or a morally sound argument either considering how it limits man's choice to act of his own will in the world. Great Movie. Laurence Fishburne is easily one of the greatest actors of all time

I've loved this movie from the very first time I watched it as a child 20+ years ago. Classic movie with a lot of knowledge within.

Yes. The way the black South used to be. We have lost our community and our souls.

Mr.Fishburne was incredible.Great cast.An outstanding movie!

[@TrueTrife]

I’ve probably seen this movie over a dozen times now and it never gets old. I liked Socrates’ drive to continue to try and better himself, and his impact on the people around him. Everyone in this movie did a great job

[@barbarawilson3659]

Good. Movie!

[@andreaash2716]

Yes this was a great movie. Low budget yet fantastic...

*_John 3.16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18 “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. 21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”_* _Jesus Christ loves you. Only Jesus Christ saves. Repent and be saved. God bless you, and the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you and your family._ ----------

The late Natalie Cole, Wow, its hard to believe. She was stunning and Bill Nunn was unsung on screen. Great casting, Ms.Tyson. Epic talents, all,

[@lindalawon9151]

Natalie Cole was an addict in real life and her mother took Natalie's kids for safe keeping. Very sad story.

[@dexterbernard2701]

@@lindalawon9151 , she was a recovering cocaine addict (80's); what celebrities weren't doing coke in the 80's? She battled hepatitis which was brought on because of her past drug use, also she was the recipient of a kidney transplant. Regardless of her medical issues, she made her own mark, away from the giant shadow cast by her late father. Saying that, your comment makes her appear to be an incompetent, irrespinsible parent. She was a champion. Yet, all champions have challenges. Godspeed to her. She'll live forever through her music, her work on the screen and perhaps literary as well.

Wow. Excellent movie from start to finish. Who in the hell could thumb this down. Excellent

[@conceitednails]

First time watching this movie. Unfortunately Ive never heard of it. I’m so thankful to have stumbled upon this gem; it was so meaningful; definitely one for the culture. Laurence Fishburne should have won a Oscar for this.
