Quotes
[Derek is leaving prison]
Lamont:
'Sup, man? You getting outta here? Well, c'mon man! What the fuck you waiting on?
Derek Vinyard:
Yeah, you know, I got this funny feeling.
Lamont:
Oh yeah? What's that?
Derek Vinyard:
I'm thinking the only reason I'm getting outta here in one piece is you.

C'mon man! Get the fuck outta here, man! You think I'm gonna put my neck on the line for some crazy-ass peckerwood?

This is a fantastic movie because no matter what side you're on in life, this movie shows them all, good and bad, right or wrong. I also agree with the point in the movie that proves that people can change for the better and straighten things out in their head to do the right things in life. Yes, things in our world have changed, some for the good, some for the bad, but just because you might not agree with some of it, doesn't mean you can play God and try to make things "your way" and this shows exactly what happens when you try. This movie talks about all walks of life and the struggles we all have in what beliefs are right and wrong. Yes this movie is brutal and violent, but also truthful to the past and unfortunately still sometimes the present. This movie is about race, but not only 1 race is singled out and fed to the dogs, they all are. So, go into this movie with an open mind and your mind will come out full.
