Sucker Free City (TV Movie 2004)

[@brandocristo]

So your brain randomly decided to remember this, too?

[@plzcallmed9070]

Nothing wrong with that 🤣🤣🤣 I rather watch all the classic movies and shows for the rest of my life than go outside for the quarantine 😂

[@icewizard9770]

I've been trying to find this out since 2010

[@exthechickenwing]

Yup

[@markesejames2133]

yep lol

[@AndreTheGiantDuran]

Falcon and the Winter Soldier reminded me of this

[@civiliantv7906]

Only the real ones know about this

[@415avenues]

yup

[@jasonpeters9865]

Don B yep

[@charlesloftin8768]

✊ saw it on TV years ago

[@HPmob420]

This movie was way ahead of its time.

[@kylerfelder]

Fo Real!!!

[@yosimtybred1762]

One of the best under rated untalked about kilafornia movies

[@MrSodaBelly]

New York accents in the bay 😂😂😂 stfu it’s TRASH

[@jaymyles763]

Such a hidden gem...watched this years ago as a kid on tv...could never remember the name of it

[@shaquilleburton1611]

I ain't watched it since I was 11 in 2005 I always remembered the namee and certain parts like the court fight over the cds nick getting robbed for his watch the bathroom stabbing and him running from the dock I just never knew where to find it till today.

[@HPmob420]

This movie is a time capsule of what SF and the Bay Area used to be like, before tech money rooted the bay area's identity out. This as a show could of showed the Bay Area as a whole just like the Wire

[@justinching4457]

Kind of. It's shot in SF but feels they otherwise transplanted New Yorkers into SF and told them to act like New Yorkers.

[@AQUAPHREESH193]

@@justinching4457 LOL exactly

[@hopiumkills5151]

​@@justinching4457 Showtime was willing at a time to give this movie a tv show. to counter the wire. Had that happened the Bay culture would of been shown. Gentrification has ruined the Bay

[@killjoyclown]

FACTS

[@AMurderOfLobs]

1:02:50 "Hey, we live in the Bay Area, so let's do Bay Area stuff, like go down and literally sit on the dock of the bay and make insights about life for 30 seconds and then leave because we're in a hurry to be somewhere else. Because that's the kind of thing people do in the Bay Area." Oh yeah, that's just an authentic slice of real life from SF back in the early naughties. PSSSH yeah right...without the B-roll, this whole movie could have been set in Seattle, or Vancouver, or Toronto, or Chicago, or Miami...or literally any other city in North America.

[@jasonpeters9865]

Spike Lee made 2 of his best movies around 2002-04. "25th Hour" & "SF City."

[@progyandas9650]

Spike lee never dissappoints does he ?! What a great script !

[@oldplanetmedia1629]

Great direction, script is by Alex Tse who also co-wrote Watchmen

[@bellahoughton84]

Spike Lee, Coen Bros, Wes Anderson,Richard Linklater, Tarentino, and Clint Eastwood. My favs

[@technician4plumbingthebay551]

San Francisco is so small is easy to recognize every street in this movie

[@CookiesToAFatChick]

Jersey Game in this movie is incredible (SF Seals, Oakland Oaks, USF, GSW, Rockets, Chinese National)!!

[@nikkosdinno312]

All that was missing was the 49ers and SF Giants.

[@Buckeye2Orange]

Just heard Omari Hardwick say this was his first acting gig. Prequel to Power's character, Ghost. Never Heard of it before. In mind of The Wire

[@tocsradio2k24]

Nah his character in Next Day Air was prequel to Ghost

[@rom9010]

Thank you! Id started to believe I made this movie up in my head.

[@hopiumkills5151]

This movie was way beyond its time.

[@hectorgonzalez6651]

This movie is underrated. My only critique is that they misrepresented the Mission District, The Mission District is Mexican and Central American... heavy. But they didn't show a Mexican or Central American for some reason.

[@solohabib7]

They at least had a west coast Boricua which is common in the Mish lol, but yeah I agree when I first saw this movie I thought the same.

[@TribeManagement]

You not from early 90s then wasn't till early 2000s Mexicans moved in heavy was only odd ones, was a arts district prior you must not known mission background

[@bellahoughton84]

Was lucky enough catch this shit when I was 26 back in day. 2005. Just got done watching it today again for like 10th time. It's so damn good u don't want it to end. Should made mini series out of it. Or Spike should revisit this in a sequel

[@sophos6300]

it was supposed to be a series but not enough people picked up on it

[@silviapauletig7439]

Lucky u was able to watch it as young I guess it can shape u gor the better

[@ronnie9856]

So now you about 44 years old. Bro I cant even watch this type of stuff without getting emotional. Where did the time go 😢

[@reddwing4368]

Spike lee is a master n this is a masterwork

[@HPmob420]

Too bad he didn't want to commit to a regular show. Because Sucker Free City might of given the Wire a run for its money.

[@terencethomas6452]

Ghost and the falcon use to be roll Dogg's I see lol

I remember walking down that hill visiting my mother I remember bob's store all the way down by the water I remember the store catching 🔥.. I remember being chased by a pit up that hill dude walked down exactly by that red mustang I hated that dog
