On the Downlow (DVD review)



This movie I was interested in seeing because the music of the gay rapper Deadlee is in it and well, the subject is kind of interesting. A latino gang story with quite a twist. Two male gangbangers fall in love and their biggest problem isn't that they're gay but that they're from opposing gangs.

Alot of corny dialogue, not so great acting. It has a strong indie feel, and I also commend the Director for tackling this unique subject. It does drag. Definitely not for the Attention Deficit generation!

Deja Vu (DVD)




Alright...this movie got alot of bad reviews and I don't necessarily think it deserved them. I mean, it's a Denzel Washington action movie. And no, it's not a repeat of all his other ones. It actually has a cool weird story. I mean, if you don't hold movies too accountable for beleivability, it should work for you. I thougth the story was cool and interesting. Worth a rental if you like action/suspese kind of movies. Skip if you are the overanalytical type or skeptical.
