“When this movie came out I was just seventh or either grade.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI can say with all honesty I was probably a mix of Duncan Pinderhughes and Blade Brown.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAcademic, but didnu0026#39;t take no crap off anyone either.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMy wife and I sat down and watched this one when it came on cable a few nights ago.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s extremely funny and original in plot.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI donu0026#39;t know why this movie was met with such poor regards.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSo much so that Kid N Play have been banished from public eye pretty much. Some people view these guys as fads, their time came and went, but I think they just didnu0026#39;t get the credit they deserved. Plus they rapped about things on a positive note, when rap was taking itu0026#39;s harder, more thug based turn. The last acting appearance of Kid was the extremely small part he had in the Temptationu0026#39;s biopic in 1998. Play has left show business and is a born again Christian so I hear.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe entire chase scene in the wax museum is hilarious.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe thing I thought was funny was the every major character seemed to have their own u0026quot;entranceu0026quot; song.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWedge, Damita, Blade…everyone had their own tune whenever they came on screen.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSomething u0026quot;Fridayu0026quot; would later borrow from.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eExtremely funny and worth a view if you want to travel back to a time when rap was about a little more than killing, smoking and getting u0026quot;crunku0026quot;.”
