Movie Reviews of Juice
Movie Review: Juice
Summary: 5 Stars
I have seen Juice many times and it is still as powerful as the first time. Bishop, Quincy (Q), Raheem and Eric (Steel) are four very different friends looking for respect, they call it juice. They skip school and spend their days hustling at the pool hall and hiding from truant officers. Q wants to be a DJ and get out, Raheem is the teenage father trying to do the right thing, Steel is the quiet one who always goes along with everything, and Bishop is the thug who wants to stick up a local grocer they have tangled with. It turns ugly when the power goes to Bishop's head and the friends find out too late there may be more important things than making a few bucks. Notable appearances by Queen Latifah as a club owner, Cindy Herron (En Vogue) as Q's older girlfriend and a hot soundtrack.
Summary of Juice
Spike Lee's longtime cinematographer, Ernest R. Dickerson, made his directorial debut with this violent story about four Harlem teens whose lives are changed when a store robbery goes wrong. The film has been likened to an urban The Wild Bunch, but it is far too artificial for that. With Dickerson's eye, Juice understandably looks great, but at the end of the day it is only a slightly better version of the heavily clich?d crime movies that have artificially dominated perceptions of black cinema in the U.S. in the '90s. Rap fans might enjoy seeing some familiar stars on board, including Queen Latifah and Tupac Shakur. --Tom KeoghAction & Adventure DVD Video
