A lot of the same elements from the original are back. I remember reviewing the original 1972 version, which was a bit hit with a great soundtrack. If you're into Poetry and other bits of creativity, check out my Instagram: … Expand But - don't live a life that's aimless or negatively directed. There's nothing wrong with being rich, not flashy, and not famous. There are people that don't want to be super fly, and - there are people that will do anything to get super fly. Plus - the film really touches on topics that certain communities are having trouble handling. The story telling works well especially with the narration from Trevor Jackson as Priest throughout. Otherwise, the film resettles afterward, comes to a reasonable end, and leaves viewers with a dream fulfilled. The only blatantly confusing aspect occurs in a final scene at Priest's home. The film looks good and its elements fit the story well. How does one get super fly? There's already a statement about being Superfly in the beginning of the film which basically says, stick to what you're good at and get super fly investors (a bit of a sarcastic statement concerning the investors though an actual aspect to recognize of reality - even banks have investors - consumers being of the most important of them). This is not the only film displaying the glorification and vilification of considerably corrupt behaviors in theaters. As one might already notice, entering the conversation of the American Dream might seem to take away from the rest of the review - but, it only makes Superfly so much more appealing. Now, there is a huge area for conversation concerning the mothers and their sons in the film which I will not touch upon in the review. Superfly superimposes these ideas well through some of the most important aspects of a child's life - a caring and present parent and social relations. The glorification and vilification of these certain people magnifies them. In many instances, these people are glorified and vilified. In life, people have to make decisions about their life - confirmations in a sense. This is not an implication that all of these paths are wrong. Some people have gone down a path of no return by choice.
The real point is, a film like Superfly shows another side of the American Dream that proposes a potential reality for some - an actual out - from their paycheck-to-paycheck lifestyles. Some might deem themselves certified street pharmacists. I don't mean the previous sentence in a sarcastic sense either. No, I'm not talking about drug dealing unless you want to work in the pharmaceutical industry as a certified employee. People are fighting hour-to-hour to make a living and there are so many opportunities available that people are not aware of which will greatly enhance their stance in life. especially concerning people not living super fly lives. Yet, it's always interesting having the conversations that ensue after watching a film like Blow, Scarface, Donnie Brasco, Swordfish, etc. I don't condone toxic (whether natural or unnatural) substance use, abuse, or the marketing (of any kind) for the aforementioned type of substances. Yet, it's always interesting I always find it tough to watch a film like Superfly because the idea of the American Dream becomes ever present. I always find it tough to watch a film like Superfly because the idea of the American Dream becomes ever present. Giving it a ten because the film is simply not a 5.5, there are opinions then there is intolerance.
Its a solid between 7.5-8.0 depending on your tolerance cartoony action films.
The reality is it's a harmless film with a small tad of social commentary. Honestly there are so many white Americans who have been brainwashed into the world is against them and that somehow watching and enjoying a film like this is a "betrayal of their race". This film isn't amazingly shot, but its a clean and cohesive action film with a badass protagonist. This film isn't the Revenant but if your review is worse than The Room, then your clearly incapable of having an honest opinion, that's not taste its just a lack of objective thought. As a straight white male who grew up in the hood, I gotta say nearly every white person criticizing this film for "racism" is taking advantage of Metacritic and IMDB's rating systems.
