Sprung

I like the music that played in this film. My favourite song was "You Want This Party Started" by Somethin' For The People because it sounds really well. It played when Clyde & his friend Montel were getting ready to go to the party. I've been looking for the song's title but I wasn't successful finding out what & whom performed it until Saturday September 29, 2018. It is a really good song but UNFORTUNATELY, it is NOT included in the Original Soundtrack for this film.

This movie starts off hilariously . . . then tapers off into less laughs. This is unlike one of the director's other films, Fear of a Black Hat, where the humor was constant throughout the movie. Some good one liners and physical comedy but you *have* to see the police line-up scene with John Witherspoon. Truly funny!

I just picked up this movie for no apparent reason...seeming 90% of movies i rent is horror...i went for a little "Change" and decided to hire Sprung! I didnt expect much from this film,but i got more than i bargained for....although not all jokes went out to the open,alot did and cracked me up...This film is good because it takes alot of time to "explore" all the characters,so you get to know them more...if you do not explore the character,you dont care about him/her,the sex scene was so hilarious!! Catch this one for some laughs!!!Dont expect too many laughs,but expect a story of sex and friendship! 6.7 out of 10

First off, there's a scene in the beginning where the protagonist is being made fun of for wearing this shirt. I used to have that exact same shirt! I still might around here somewhere.

But that's not my this movie gets a mediocre rating. I actually found the shirt part funny. I think I got that shirt at Burlington Coat Factory? The shirt is more memorable than this comedy. And this is more of a sweet love story than a comedy and that's okay. But we came for the laughs and not so much the love.

The cast is amazing. Wow. I don't even know what some of these actors were doing in this?

Isabel Sanford and Sherman Hemsley?

Clarence Williams III?

Legends, all of them in bit parts. Had to be a favor.

The director, Rusty Cundieff, is also the star. Which makes sense because I didn't recognize the dude here in 2023.

But he also wrote and directed Tales from the Hood just a couple of years before this.

I love that movie! It's not only one of my favorite 90's movies, it's one of my favorite horror movies of all time!

But this movie doesn't work.

Tisha Campbell and Paula Jai Parker are so gorgeous and I've always thought they looked like sisters and here they really do.

The movie is just not funny.

There's scenes where people have like Terminator-vision is the club, and other scenes where guys look like actual dogs in human clothes but it's just silly and flat.

I still don't really get what Sprung even means or meant back in 1997.

I was around then and have the shirt to prove it.

Rusty C and Tisha Campbell were paired up 3 times that I personally know of. They first were in School Daze, you may not recognize them though, since he didn't have much hair then and was much younger. While Tisha 'of course' was wearing extensions/wig (to this day I'm not completely sure). Then he was a writer for the movie 'House Party 2' starring Kid n Play. While Tisha played Kids love interest (in all 3 versions that is). And now they starred in this movie together - this time playing opposite one another. The question I ponder is did they interact prior to this. In 'Daze' they didn't have much contact on the movie screen but could have spoken off camera. While with HP2 they most likely didn't speak unless she confronted him on her lines in the script. Who knows there maybe other movie/TV spots/etc that puts these two together.
