Movie Review: true to life movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I really enjoyed the movie... Allen Payne's the best and has always been, Hollywood thinks Wil Smith is the stuff, (not that he's not a good actor because he is, and I like him) but boy are they really missing out... Allen has it all.. the smoothness this man brings across the screen makes you fall in love with him whether he's good or bad, there were many parts in the movie that were just captivating. I loved it when Allen told his father he did what he did because he was GOOD at it, even knowing it was the wrong thing to say, he still told the truth, just bad, that's all I can say. I must admit the language was alittle much for me, but all in all it was a well directed movie and "TRUE TO LIFE" that is the way people get caught up, we all know when you're young you don't know enough to stop yourself from making those mistakes that can ruin your future, Allen received some scars and have memories that he will never forget but he learned from it, those are the best mistakes to make the kind you learn from, this is why this is such a true to life movie, I loved the bond the four young men had with each other even though outsiders tried to tear it apart. Allen's wife was just like I would be (down for her man) she loved Allen to no end, and that's what count, she made her position clear with him but he knew she loved him, (true to life), all that matters trust, honestly and love,... yes I loved this movie,
great job to all.. keep them coming... a true fan of Allen payne and those that cast him in movies,..

Movie Review: Anything is possible
Summary: 4 Stars
The movie gave Allen Payne a chance to shine in the spotlight since Jason Lyric. It was totally different from New Jack City, it was more about love and friendships. Although they just happen to sell drugs for a living. I also like the fact how Allen Payne's character married his eighth grade sweetheart. Plus I like how the little boy from Soul Food, the movie adult character looks very similar.Movie Review: Must See Kind of Movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a great movie (writing/directing/producing). Allen Payne is a wonderful actor and he really gave a stellar performance in Bluehill Avenue. The real treat though was the awesome performances of the supporting cast of up and coming unknowns (Characters of E-Bone, Money and Simon). I have already seen the actors who played Money and Simon appear in other movies. Clarence Williams III always adds distinct flavor to any role he plays. Those of you who are 1970s movie buffs will recognize the character who plays Uncle Rob from one of the Blacula flicks from back in the day. Even though I am not elaborating on the rest of the supporting cast, they are all great (even the teens).The movie was not predictable, which I appreciated. It did however remind me just a bit of "Jason's Lyric" and "New Jack City". Ingredients that made up the story consist of friendship, loyalty, love, betrayal, trust, self analysis, greed and power. The soundtrack was also enjoyable. The characters were very believable and definitely unforgetable. If you enjoy it or just want to know more...check out the website for more info on cast and behind the scenes at bluehillavenue.com.
Movie Review: TOP NOTCH BLACK CINEMA
Summary: 5 Stars
I thoroughly enjoyed this film. I came across it a couple of time while out looking for DVD's, but passed it up each time. Finally I decided I should give it a shot.Boy am I glad I did, because this is a wonderful tale of how simple it is to have your whole life changed by one act or by saying or suggesting something......"What if we didn't smoke it all?" That's how easy it was to get it all started. The only problem is stopping something, generally isn't as easy.
I had my teenage son and niece watch this film and see from a spectators point of view, how silly it truly is to let you desire to fit in or you so called loyalty to friends bring you down. That we all should do what the pit of "our" stomach tells us to do, not what guilt or fear dictates.
I would recommend this to all with one bit of advice - "when watching anything that isn't based on a true story, take it for what it's worth. Remember....it's entertainment with a message.
