Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

jfgibson73 2 G's and a Key seems to start out like a buddy comedy--Warren and Curtis are drug runners working for Andre, the rich and powerful dealer from Bel-Air. Warren is all business, but Curtis is just out of prison and wants to have some fun. On the way to their first delivery, they stop off at Leticia's house--she's an old acquaintance of Curtis'--and in a few minutes Curtis has made a bad choice that will set up the conflict for the rest of the movie. By tampering with the cocaine he was supposed to deliver, Curtis has angered Andre, the low-level street dealer he was bringing it to, and the dealer's customers. On top of that, he has a very determined rival in Sadd Dogg, another dealer who believes Curtis still owes him a back debt. The movie then gets to a point where Curtis and Warren are in so much trouble that there is no going back, and I started to realize that this movie wasn't going to be a light-hearted comedy.The character of Curtis is hopefully a warning to other young viewers who do not take their responsibilities seriously. In every situation, he was distracted by thoughts of more enjoyable pursuits, until her eventually is responsible for getting Warren killed. I was surprised when the movie crossed that line, but it added an extra gravity to the story. I hope impressionable young viewers were also taking note when Curtis was mourning the loss of his friend, promising him that, "I'm going to make it up to you." Even in death, Warren still has to listen to Curtis' lame excuses.Except that Curtis really does change. He enacts a plan for revenge that ends up taking down both Sadd Dogg and Andre in one final confrontation in a loft. As the movie ends, we see that Curtis is a responsible adult not, albeit as the head of another dealing outfit. However, this is a case where the ending of the movie was so good, it helped make the story as a whole that much better. What I really liked was that Curtis had assumed the role previously filled by Andre--successful businessman, responsible, admonishing his dealers to not mess with the merchandise or any other drugs. Leticia is part of his operation and mentions to the young runners that Curtis "lost a homing messing with the merchandise." Finally, the cycle is complete as we see the young runners pulling away in a Jaguar Curtis has provided. They are arguing about taking the car to visit some girls. One of them is being responsible like Warren was, saying that they need to stick to business, while the other guys sounds like Curtis used to, saying that it will only take a minute, and that they should take advantage of the opportunity to show off the ride.This movie made me want to find more of the movies by the director, Paul Wynne. I don't pretend to believe that it was "realistic" or "authentic," but I was entertained.

Kenny McElroy I really like this movie and have been searching to buy it again. Loaned a recording of it to a friend and never got it back. Have been wanting to watch it and have been searching for years now. Pleeeeeaase send me any helpful information as where I can get this. Definitely, a keeper!! Can you send any, I mean ANY, website information as to where I can purchase this movie, VHS or DVD. I've even told others about it, and because it's not a blockbuster, no one's heard too much about it. Can you also tell me if you know of any other movies with same kind of feel? It totally caught me by surprise, and I do watch movies like that regularly on weekends or weekdays, no matter. Thanks so much! My eyes lit up when I saw the results of finding it!

Jamaal Weston I liked this movie, don't ask me why because I couldn't give you a straight answer. Just the fact that the lead character some how survives through all that happens is laughable enough to me.I'm not going to give a scene by scene, part by part break down of this flick, there's not much to tell. The action scene's are badly edited, at one point the guy who get's shot has short hair but you can clearly see, unless your blind, that the body double has a bad conk job, like he wore it out under the lights or something.Come to think of it the only scene was the sex scene between the lead guy and gal, they got down on a bathroom sink and it look good ya'll, LOL!! Overall I'd say if you have cable and some free time on your hands and your looking for a movie where you'll laugh and say WTF is this S###? Then this is the movie for you.

bort13 I'll give it this: I didn't stop watching, and it's not corporate, which is kind of cool. But my internal critic cut it to pieces -- I suppose I see too many movies. Wooden script, the slang just sort of clanks out of their mouths without any kind of flow. Editing, mentioned before, is hit and miss; sometimes it evokes a good ghetto feel, but mostly its irritating -- jerky, quirky angles and really dull lingering facial closeups. The actors were marginal, though Letisha had her moments.I'm not sure why the audience supposed to care about Curtis, he's a total screwup and the actor is entirely expressionless and not particularly funny or endearing. The directing doesn't help make you love him or hate him, even; I just wanted him to shut up and get shot already. I didn't care about his impotent vengeance when that rolled around. The completely predictable ending isn't credible at all. I'm not sure why we're supposed to believe that some erstwhile successful dealers he deposes are stupid enough to fall for his petty scams. "Oh, you just got out of jail and are on probation? Here's thousands of dollars worth of cocaine, go run it around the corner for me. Now don't steal from me, etc."A good sex scene in the beginning gave me hope, but it was let down in the end. Handling of a rape scene was slightly eyebrow-raising, if only mildly interesting. There are better movies in this genre that don't insult your intelligence by trying for some kind of authentic ghetto realism while more resembling a film-school offering. 4/10, an F.
