This film is a must see! You will be glued to the screen as each moment will become even more gripping. I would have liked to see the ending with a different twist. Watch it in theaters or on streaming platforms.
A Must See Film. Every scene in this movie was authentic and on point to true life events. A Road To Riches come true. It takes you on a journey of Cat childhood growing up in Jamaica and his struggle to survive without the guidance of a father figure. Cat turned to the street and learned those codes of survival. He wanted a better life and eventually his mom saved up money to bring her family over to America to find a better life. Every young kid in the struggle can and will learn something from this well put together film. It kept me on edge every scene learning and educating me on the every day struggles of reality we live today. This is action-packed thriller movie with a message. This is one of those movies you will keep on repeat. Im going to watch it again today. You going to have to watch it to understand. Get to the theaters or press play on your social digital devices. If you loved SHOTTAS and PAID IN FULL, this is THE BLENDED REMIX! VERSION WITH A TWIST!

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!!
I will make an easy list to follow:
-Terrible, cheesy acting
-Terrible art direction and cinematography
-ZERO chemistry amongst the characters
-Story is underdeveloped and contrived
-Silly way of politicizing America as a place where you HAVE to be a criminal to 'get ahead'
-Stereotypes everywhere
-Ending was absurd.
- How long is Respect the Jux?Powered by Alexa
