Respect the Jux

An 'outsider making their own way' gangsta movie, written and directed by newcomer GH Goba.

Sadly, the inexperience shows being laced with cliché, mind numbing dialogue and embarrassingly poor camerawork. The stylistic choice to have a Film Noir narration approach falls flat as do the non-linear plot elements. Characters are unconvincing and shallow caricatures with no credible attempt to flesh them out or make them relatable.

This could well have worked as an over-the-top comedy, but as any kind of serious crime drama it falls well short of acceptable.

This was a action packed movie with a message. I loved the authenticity of the characters. It was filmed in Jamaica West Indies and New York. The scenes from Jamaica were amazing!!! The book was great and the movie was even better!!

Great cast ,great storyline, very entertaining it's definitely a must watch. I'll be watching it again.

For this to be an independent film it definitely surpasses any expectations. The quality of the production is also amazing Also the sound track is amazing. Many known actors and actresses.

I was tuned in to the fullest . The turn out of this movie was epic. Reminds me of topboy on Netflix but better. I different recommend watching this movie you will not be disappointed. I've watched it 3 times already cause it was so good .

A gritty depiction of what's it's like growing up in a a third world Country and the pursuit of the so called American dream. I find the story relatable on many levels through to the sad the ending of achieving/chasing that desire for the dream at all cost.

A must see!
