Snipes

This is one of the greatest movies I have ever seen. It explains how hard life can be when u hit the big time and also talks about what would happen if a fan was in a situation when he had to kill his idol? Nelly was amazing in this movie, proving that he can rap but he is an amazing actor as well. I think this movie was also a very touching story(especially at the end of the movie). To tell u the truth I was crying, I not going to lie. Also ladies, if u wanna see a bunch of hot guyz then this is the best movie for u. It of course has Nelly in it and a bunch of other hot playaz. There is something for the men too. There is a woman in the movie , Cheryl, acted by Zoe Saldana. She looks good for all them men.lol.Well if u want to see a hot movie that is a drama, action, and a love story, this is the movie for u to see.

Nelly is the bestest, and if you like band-aids and testicularless rhyme styles, this is the movie for you. In this movie, you get to see nellys ass when he gets out of the shower, so if you are from norway, you will really, really, really love this movie. GO #TURNTABLISM

I thought this might be a "rap" film only but was suprised by it's behind the scenes look inside the music business, it's great story and performances by Nelly and the rest of the cast. Director Murray, is clearly in charge of the material.....can't wait to see what he does next! Excellent!

Snipes is a movie that suffers from sloppy storytelling and overall uninspiredness, but it held my attention even if not the most engaging.

There are several issues present throughout. The plot isn't necessarily bad, but it's pretty convoluted and not in a clever way. The film seems aware of how much the viewer would need to know to understand the plot, and thus tries to compensate by throwing several brief flashbacks to relevant information from earlier in the movie. It works in terms of making things clear, but feels very lazy. The movie explains itself a lot but I never felt particular interest in why things happened or what was going to happen.

The filmmaking is rather TV movie-like. It's not badly shot but it's hardly impressive. I was not a fan of the music supervision, as I felt some parts would have benefitted from different or no music, but the movie way too often feels the need to add hip-hop instrumentals wherever it can.

It's a bit hard for me to think of genuine positives in the film, but I will say it wasn't boring. Snipes is not exactly to my taste, but the movie manages to keep a solid pace. It's a serviceable two hours and competently made despite my lack of true engagement.

Finally a thriller with a twist after twist. Rap and hip-hop provide more than background music, they're central to the theme. Smart script and excellent thriller overall. 'Nelly' is certainly more than a rapper. He's is star on the big screen too.
