*EDIT TO ADD* Guys, the things we say and think in the reaction are solely based on Frankie’s portrayal in the movie. I feel much differently towards the real Frankie Lymon having done my own research once the movie was over. There were many aspects of his real life that were left out. The movie was great don’t get me wrong, but I do not feel they conveyed the truth of his tragic life and I wouldn’t have insulted the guy if I had known. RIP Frankie 🫶🏻 Thank you for reading! I know 8 mile technically won our music poll but I could not get it to download that day, so we went with the runner up. 8 mile will still be completed of course but for now here we are. Please forgive my sniffling it was right at the end of me being sick. Hope you all are having a good one wherever you are ✌🏻

thanks for saying your names at the start. please keep doing it, even after a hundred videos.

[@shaquilleanderson1887]

People fail to realize Frankie was underage and these were GROWN WOMEN

[@HabitualCinema]

@@shaquilleanderson1887 I’m not so sure it’s “realize” as much as it is just not knowing. You wouldn’t think that with this movie. I definitely wouldn’t have known he was only 25 when he died if I hadn’t researched it after watching this. It was a wild read for sure

[@jmurdock8303]

Yeah when was 13 he had sexual relationships with grown women

[@nicolesherman8974]

I feel like biggest crime is that Halle Berry should have done more comedy movies. I always felt she had the comedic chops and timing. Her and Vivica A. Fox worked well together.

[@misstexas651]

BAPS is a good one ,she was funny af in that one 😂😂

[@Buk718]

The actual Frankie Lymon looks like a grown Gary Coleman. 😂😂

[@nopenottuhday2691]

He look African lol

[@kadarmuhammad5059]

Little Richard actually played himself in this movie which is pretty epic because he is the one who pretty much created Rock and roll music 🤯….

[@kadarmuhammad5059]

The sad part about this movie is a lot of what he went through happened to him before he was 18 😢 Also all those grown ass women were fcking a child. They were at least mid 20s….

[@HabitualCinema]

@@kadarmuhammad5059 I read some of that after I finished the movie. Absolutely wild !

[@kadarmuhammad5059]

@@HabitualCinema Yeah I was cringing through this whole reaction in my head I was screaming he was 13 and was pretty much molested….that’s why that lady got married to him in Mexico

[@popeye697]

The actor that played Frankie Lyman is named Larenz Tate and he looks exactly the same 24 years later as he does in the movie. The only real difference is that he is in better shape now than he was then

[@misstexas651]

Frankie relationship with the school teacher was my favorite of all the stories. She was soo pretty back then. The lady playing her is Lela Rochon she is married to Antoine Fuqua he directed Training Day

[@shanicemiles3184]

7:14 he also plays in a movie called Jawanna Man -along with vivica a fox - he plays a failed nba star who was kicked out of the league so he dresses up as a woman to play in the wnba. Vivica fox plays on the team he joins lol. Singer Ginuwine is in it too and rapper lil kim and tina turners mom in 'whats love got to do with it' plays his mom lol

[@SmileyAdventures]

[@AllenGold-bz1ze]

Wow, Jenna is gorgeous with her bangs back

[@pokemovieguy]

Great reaction beautiful ladies! The Director Gregory Nava also directed the movie "Selena" (1997) a year before this film!

[@YL_KEVO]

This a classic y’all tapped in fr

[@nopenottuhday2691]

Do b.a.p.s , its another hood classic staring halle berry. Pure comedy !! I havent seen it in yrs but i watched that movie everyday of my life when i was 5 😂 she plays a broke hairdresser in atlanta😂😂😂 it has bernie mac, heavy d, ezell from friday, big worm from friday, LL cool J, Dennis Rodman, and the bi -sexual thug in Dont be a Menace is in it too 😂🔥🔥🔥

1:43 ashly, stop being so much fun! aww, ok keep going. 🙂

[@therealmarlonbellamy]

This movie is one of the best music biopics of all time. Halle Berry was huge in the 90s. Please watch the following movies that she is in: Jungle Fever Strictly Business The Last Boy Scout Boomerang Losing Isiah Monsters Ball The Program B.A.P.S.

[@Risha-Rene]

I love Strictly Business & Boomerang. I’d love to see them react to one of those

[@therealmarlonbellamy]

@@Risha-Rene Strictly Business is a hidden gem 💎 & Boomerang is one of the greatest romantic comedies of all time.

[@Risha-Rene]

@@therealmarlonbellamy Yes💎 I love a good rom-com. Boomerang is my fav Eddie Murphy movie & one of my top favs of all time. I’ve never heard of the Program. I’ll have to check that out. One reason why I love these reaction channels. I’ve gotten put on to so many good classics

[@therealmarlonbellamy]

@@Risha-Rene The Program starrs Omar Epps, Halle Berry & James Caan. I love these reaction channels as well. Another good romcom is A Thin Line Between Love & Hate.

[@Risha-Rene]

@@therealmarlonbellamy Yes, that’s a good one too. They don’t make movies like those anymore. Black cinema in the 90’s are unmatched & they all hit different once you watch them as an adult. I’m about to watch Two can play that game on Netflix until I fall asleep. Comfort movies☺️

[@THEORGINALPLUSH]

I love your reactions! If you can find it and haven't watched it already, please consider Lady Sings the Blues.

[@marcussmith6805]

Frankie was also a victim at just 13 or 14 because he was given heroin at that young age to begin with. A sad story all around.

Great Reaction To This Great Movie, Ladies

[@YoureMrLebowski]

damn, it's Jenna's hotter twin sister.

[@Chris55555.]

Hello, check out a movie called, 1492: Conquest of Paradise. Adventure/Drama (1992). It stars Gérard Depardieu, Siqourney Weaver, Armante Assante. It portrays a version of the travels to the New World by the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus and the effect this had on indigenous peoples. Directed by Ridley Scott. Thank you, Chris.

[@burgerrburgerr3393]

You guys have to post more(not HAVE to) you letting these other channels kick your butts. We can’t be having that🙅🏾‍♂️

[@HabitualCinema]

@@burgerrburgerr3393 Unfortunately they have full time editors and I do not. I wish I had the time, I’d like to get to posting 2 videos a week. It’s very tedious and time consuming though and I have a busy schedule as is 😩

@@HabitualCinema keep doing the best you can. but faster. 😉

[@burgerrburgerr3393]

Y’all should react to Frankie Lymon and Teenagers Why Do Fools Fall In Love and I’m Not a Juvenile Delinquent. All great songs.

[@BruceJohnson-om5kl]

Your watching all these black movies you should be taking notes. Not like now, a legacy isn't built over night. She was in Big Movies back then, that's how she got the roles, And the more people shall her face the more Famous she became.

[@jmurdock8303]

Why did y'all refer to him as a narcissist?

[@HabitualCinema]

@@jmurdock8303 because the movie portrayed him that way. I will say that after doing some research of my own afterwards, my opinion has changed.

[@kadarmuhammad5059]

He actually married one of those women when he was 14….

Tear apart our heroes. How disappointing was this reaction. Thank You anyways
