Thug Life Reviews: Ummmm  2003-12-12 - The lead character is a straight negro. Notice i said negro. The story line is good. It's real! As far as the martial-arts experience? It's ideal. Though, none of these actors real seem to know martial arts. I do remember the days of the panther, where martial arts was part of the law. I mean you had to know how to defend yourself back then. This movie is a reminder of that. Though, it's not quite real enough it's still an ideal scenario. This would be a movie where grown ups have that child "Conquer and destroy" Mentality. Like "This is our clubhouse! Who goes there?" type ish (Ninja Turtles). So, it's cool in a way. I believe the kung fu master type action should be deaded and more official. As far as black folks? We just go for what we know. In the streets it ain't much. Um, maybe a crow-bar, a rock, a rusty screw-driver, umm some scrap metal........ Kung fu? how many of us can afforded? How many actually believe they need it? Mama got kitchen knives, Pops got a gun, big bro plays baseball. So their you have it. A good ideal movie with a lil extra activity that might take you from the concept. Though, it was fun to watch, and it makes me think...hmmmm what if black culture had more involved like Martial Art. But if you can look past the little martial arts slow motion fighting and the unexperience artists. You could really enjoy this flick heartful. Big ups to the team and cast that put this together cause it ain't too far off from the black origin. Always keep it real. Though this movie is straight entertainment. It's also one of my favorite underground indie films from black-america. Great Music! I imagine this movie redone with just "Go for what you know fighting (on the real). It's Gangsta! Big Ups!
Thug life  2003-06-27 - it was an alright movie.I liked it because it took place in my hometown which is houston and its representing that shut em down records and thats my familys buisness
Does not deserve half a star (This Movie is Garbage)  2003-05-29 - I saw this movie on TMC one night......First off I'd like to say, "Who in the hell keeps making these types movies" It attracted me because it had "the Lady of Rage" in it. too much cursing, no real plot and just a bad script. Two friends from the Hood who seem to be martial arts experts. who are into all the bad things the Hood has to offer. I thought martial arts was to supossed to keep you out of trouble!

Awesome Movie !...  2002-10-07 - Very well put together independent film, the acting was perfect and had alot of emotions in there lines, if you haven't seen this film make sure you either rent it, or buy it like I did, because you'll want to see it over and over. MC
