Poll Underrated, Overrated, Properly rated Series: Belly

[AP2.5]

Hood classic

But the shit took a weird ass turn toward the end

Still classic regardless. Quotables for days

So it's a classic because it has quotables?

 

[AZTG]

One of the best worst movies ever.

I could be convinced that its one of the worst best movies though.

 

[Dwayne]

I see where you going with this

 

[Stomp Johnson]

We like Belly bc like hip hop and the era in which Belly was made.
I mean...we also like good movies too, but ween gon get into all that right now. This is about Belly.

 

[The Mad Titan]

So it's a classic because it has quotables?

Partly yes

But also the visuals, the cast, soundtrack. It was a good movie I just thought the Bunz/Minister angle was kinda left field.

 

[Dwayne]

I don’t grade movies on a curve or music.

 

[Lord Nemesis]

14 year old me dug this movie but the shit is ass.

 

[Olorun22]

Man, it's some bad acting in this
:wtf11:

 

[Duwop]

It was shot amazingly... And it's target audience was very happy with it in the theaters.
Replay value is high as a hood movie. Definitely deserving the title hood classic

Lowering the bar

 

[Duwop]

I remember clearly seeing this in the movies in highschool. That whole day was lit

 

[Chi-Town B]

Fuck outta here with hood classic, that term is a fucking cop out.

The movie isn't a classic at all.

 

[AP2.5]

what was this huge impact that Belly left

semi serious question

 

[ChicagoFigure]

Cult classic

 

[AP2.5]

Cult classic

why?

 

[ChicagoFigure]

why?

Bc it is a classic appreciated by a cult following

The fact that u have to question it is proof of that

i asked b/c telling me its a cult classic doesnt tell me what YOU think about the movie

we know there are all types of movies that a certain niche of people will hold in some high regard

im asking YOU, is it overrated, underrated, or properly rated and for you to explain your position

It's properly rated

Classic to some, trash to others

But still in the convo year after year after year

 

[Sony Montana]

Fuck it I was gonna chill but I’m here. For all the niggas that talk about the cinematography what’s good about it outside of the first scene in the movie?

niggas only use that word for THIS movie also

i'll add the scene(s) leading up to the assassination attempt as Hypes use of the color red visually was nice to see.

And when we first see Tommy's crib and when Keisha is sleeping. The blue hue off her body, and the all white with the black and white pictures in the backdrop. OH...the blue tint in Nebraska
