Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

chellereene This movie was a great hood movie that started off slow, but then took you right in.The actors played their roles well and it made you feel like you knew them personally.My DVD of this movie is crystal clear and the audio is good it's not too low or jumpy, it's smooth all the way threw.Also the story line was great,I mean it's the story line of a lot of movies but so what every one has it's own unique turns and twist and that's what makes every movie different and when you live in that life like me or it's around you then you can really related and if you don't money power and respect will still grab you in and you will understand the life. Not only me but everybody that I let see the movie want's me to get them one and everybody in Detroit loves the movie,that's real so keep up the good work and Jamal if you make part two cause you can the way it ended let a sista know maybe you can give a fly chick a part in it. Keep shooting for the stars you'll make itMichelle mcmurray

philavision One thing is for sure, two things are for certain, making films is a BIT-- and let me tell you, with no money and no time it's a SON of A BIT--. I'm not even talking about getting distribution or studio funding for your next script (Universal's $$$$$), but that's a new whole new topic. This isn't a job it's a life style. Your first film and your tenth will be worlds apart, if you make it to ten from all the discouragement you'll get form the "side lines". If you don't know try it. It's much harder then commenting on films all day. This movie is the beginning of one's journey, watch the conclusion, see how it all plays out. Best wishes. Big up to all indie filmmakers! U can do it, TRUST ME, I KNOW!!!!!

reddmonster4 Garbage pretty much sums the film up... The director seems to have put a lot of bad actors together in a bad script, (which is all one long bad cliché.) A lot of the dialogue is just not believable coming out of certain actors mouths. One example, after the drug dealer is robbed by Levi and Drew on their first job together he all of a sudden becomes a wise philosopher and utters "what goes up must come down..." before he gets stomped and shot by Drew. All said this a great movie for any aspiring filmmaker to watch. There is a lot to be gained from watching this as far as what not to when you have a DV camera and are shooting a film with mainly friends. The director, Jamal Hill seemed to be the only viable actor in the whole movie he's definitely better in front of the camera than behind it. His camera technique and shot selection were a bit lazy and uncourageous. Too much tripod and not enough hand-held. All in all the screenplay should've been re-written and edited a lot more and the director should've taken better care in the casting aspect of pre-production. It would have helped the film ten-fold. The story itself has been told a million times in films. From Scarface to every bad 'Hood'or 'ghetto' B movie ever created. In the commentary the director mentions he had a 10,000$ budget amazing how so much money could be wasted in such little time. It was amazing however how the director could push such bad material into an hour and forty minutes. Bottom-Line if you want to make movies and are young and inexperienced this is a very good bad film otherwise stay away, unless you like to watch garbage.

refsp Oh yeah. It has bad actors, bad porn scenes, bad shoot ups, bad drug exchanges, bad everything. I don't know why I saw the whole thing, but I guess I needed to kill some time while cooking dinner. Either they're all crack heads trying to change course in life, or they're actors not worthy of they're titles. Drew is acting OK, but the main character should be expelled from further acting duty. The story is OK, but it seems like they have taken the common Italian Mob film, made a black ghetto version of it with minimized budget and low budget actors. I mean, even the "bling" looks cheap in this movie ! Naw, films like these just can't make it without Ice-T he he. Or, throw in Andre 3000 and make a decent comedy out of it, but please, don't do it like this. 'These clowns wouldn't last a day in Brandbergen', to quote a certain genius.
