Consignment

Consignment is a legit movie about the game. Gets down with the dirty business of dealing speed and killing to keep your respect. One of the more real gangsta movies I've checked out in a while. It has a Black and Latino hook that was real tight. Good to see that spin. This is fresh cuz the way the people spoke and acted rang true. At least a dozen people getting smoked or smoking somebody. Like they say smoke or get smoked. The strip show on this DVD is unbelievable. Some thumping hip hop reggaeton music plays while this hottie dances losing clothes as she goes. That was like a super hot bonus. There are some real bad cats in this joint. I watched Consignment a few times already. If you like movies about drug dealing on the street this is your ticket. Don't skip the deleted scenes on this one cuz they are smoking hot! This is a real strong movie repping the street.

This is not a pure 8 out 8 stars for Consignment. The old school bell curve is in full effect. Hands down consignment has a banging soundtrack for a low budget urban piece. Its hot. Custom Made Recordings & Babygrande Records consignment track crushes. I've been a big fan of jackin4beats.com since it started. Music makes a movie. This movie had real street music.

The story is old hash. A drug dealer wants to get out of the business. Nothing new. What was new was having a black east coast drug dealer, played by jackin4beats founder by Tim Beachum, having crazy panic attacks after moving to LA to deal with latino gangsters. What was banging was action, nudity, and real looking cast. Straight up a few people were clearly cast from the streets.

Consignment was what I would consider one of the better independent films. It is defiantly an independent film that I am proud to have as part of my collection.

Here is my break down of the movie for those of you that even want to hear my two cents :-)

Broken down on a scale from 1-10 (10 being the highest duh!)

Visually - 10 Audio - 8 Acting - 6 (I would have given it an 8 but I couldn't stomach the wife Yolanda. How she got cast I'll never know!) Soundtrack - 10 Movie Trailer - 8

... and that's my two cents... Take it or leave it!

I loved this full out gangster movie. It's loaded with action. Story moved quick with no let downs. Consignment had some of the most real characters I've seen in a little bit. I gotta say the striptease in this movie was FANTASTIC. The dance, the grind, the moves were electric. Too many glossy fake movies about drug dealing out there that miss the mark. Consignment landed a bullseye. What I really liked to see was the mixed cast of characters represented. You had Black, White, Latino, Asian, and Native American faces shown. That was hot to see. Another surprise was the soundtrack. I got my DVD off Amazon. Wherever you get it you check it out.

If your a fan of underground hip hop then you may really enjoy this movie. Honestly the movie was a bit too hardcore and violent for my tastes but my boyfriend enjoyed it. Maybe even a bit too much! With the scenes of women half naked and what not.

But all in all I would say it was a decent flick for the gangster genre. I won't give away too much of the story but it may seem a bit cliché at first. But it definitely had some twists and turns that keeps you watching. I would not put it at the level of boyz in the hood or juice but sometimes it's nice to be able to see these "grimey" hood movies.

I must agree with the other posters that the soundtrack was definitely bumping as well! A lot of good non-commercial hip hop and reggeaton. It featured underground artists like Custom Made Recordings, Ayreon The Don, Malice & Da Commission and others. Definitely worth checking out as a rental in my opinion.
