Y’all I know Nino & Gmoney are only CMB brothers but I grew up believing there were and had so many logics 😂I’ve come too far to go back now just roll it I can’t just drop all that after 20 yrs! I took “Am I My Brothers Keeper” to 💕🤦🏾‍♀️

[@Apricityville]

Girl, you had me real perplexed over here LOL. I was like "huh? Biological brothers??" 🤣🤣🤣

[@Smithworks2]

Are you kidding? Judd Nelson is 🔥🔥🔥🔥. His character is the balance and I love how he went head to head w Ice. I loved him in this movie, it was a multi layered affair.

[@isaiahedwards6586]

Ice T had some RUFF line delivery at times, otherwise everybody played their roles perfectly. RIP Bill Nunn

[@cluv513]

Wesley killed this role. He then had the AUDACITY to do Demolition Man after 🤷‍♀️

He was the best part of the movie

Demolition Man was fire.

Wesley Snipes performance in New Jack City was outstanding, laced with emotional diversity.

Nino Brown was an iconic character. I put him up there with any all time great gangster in movie history. Wesley did his thing. Chris Rock did his thing. Allen Payne did his thing.

[@thaistomp]

Nino brown is definitely an iconic character. Wesley is a legend 💯😎

Who is more brutal, Nino Brown or Lil Ze from City of God?

Scotty: Man, I got Pookie killed. Me: Yes...yes you did. That was a TERRIBLE idea...

[@therealmarlonbellamy]

Thank you for this review. New Jack City, Boyz N Da Hood, Juice & Menace II Society is the Mount Rushmore of hood classics. They taught us life lessons, launched a lot of careers & still talked about 30 years later after their debut.

[@StruggleReviewzTV]

No Problem ❤

[@therealmarlonbellamy]

Fun Facts: Wesley Snipes & Bill Nunn were also in Mo’ Better Blues & Money Train. Bill Nunn & Michael Michelle were also in Def By Temptation & Allen Payne & Chris Rock were also in CB4.

[@4LoKi]

I think ur right. Cali and New York got the Mt. Rushmore of hood movie classics. I think Sugar Hill doesn't get enough credit.

[@therealmarlonbellamy]

@@4LoKi I agree. Other hood classics they don’t get enough credit are South Central, New Jersey Drive & Clockers.

[@kristineilochi4615]

Nino did give a little exposition regarding his relationship origins with Selena. During that argument they had, he said that she gave him books to read (maybe a pet project "I can save the inner city boy and change him"). LOL He gave her a life of excitement because she was the proverbial "poor little rich girl." Nino said that her dad was a doctor who was cheating on her mother I assume with his fellow staff members at the hospital he worked at (doctors, nurses, etc...) and her mother was a kleptomaniac stealing shit out of Macy's. Maybe they met by chance when she wanted to get away from her elitist life and come to the "hood" to live a little, I am speculating.

[@nicolesherman8974]

This film will always be a classic. I was just watching your Sugar Hill video recently and this movie compared to NJS are opposite when discussing Wesley Snipes and the characters he portrayed in both films. Sugar Hill was a mixture of NJS and Jason’s lyric, but the plot twist was Nino Brown opting out the drug game to live a normal life. New Jack City will always have a dope soundtrack. Christopher Williams was in this movie and provided a song for the score 🤣.

[@StruggleReviewzTV]

Yes! I think I said that In the video as well he’s definitely the RayNathan here!

Great review. In my opinion, this movie is a masterpiece. Also, i.m.o, Wesley Snipes' performance in this film is equivalent to Al Pacino's performance in "Scar Face". Pure greatness. . . . .
