5.0 out of 5 stars Great Movie, March 8, 2003

This review is from: Snipes (Special Edition) (DVD)

How was this movie not released until now? It was made when Nelly released his second album and Sam Jones (who pulls a Sean Nelson and steals the show)stars on Smallville. While you can figure out the plot of the movie in the middle of it. An unexpected plot twist happens that isout of the blue. There is another twist in this movie that reflects real life, however it will spoil the plot of the movie, so I'll post a warning here for those that doesn't want the movie's twist given away.

SPOILER....
Dante Suarez has a cameo in this movie and much like Prolifick, whose mucis is never released to the public. Dante's album was never released when RCA dropped him from thier label. So this is the only time you get to see him ever.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth it, February 28, 2003

This review is from: Snipes (Special Edition) (DVD)

"Snipes" is entertaining. It's not a cinematic masterpiece, nor does it aspire to be. It's leaps and bounds better than your average hip-hop movie where the latest rapper du jour gets a starring vehicle..."Exit Wounds" with DMX was a painful movie to watch. "Snipes" is enjoyable. Sure, there are some scenes that stretch the limits of plausibility, but all in all, it's a fun movie.
In the interest of full disclosure, I must say that I worked on this movie as a Production Assistant, but I'm not biased. I only worked on it for 2 days. But in one scene, they put me in the movie. I get carjacked near the end. Of course, I had to sit through the entire movie to see my 5 seconds of screen time, but "Snipes" made it an enjoyable wait. Check it out if you like fun urban thrillers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Go Nelly, October 11, 2002

By 

Brittney (Chicago,Il USA) - See all my reviews

Nelly's debut movie was definitely a hit to me, not just because I'm his #1 fan, it just was.I recommend this movie it's good enough to see over again so I'm gon' hit the theaters back up. Although there were a very few things that weren't all that good but he's still a five!
