2 G's & a Key Audience Reviews

Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Wordiezett So much average
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Jamaal Weston I liked this movie, don't ask me why because I couldn't give you a straight answer. Just the fact that the lead character some how survives through all that happens is laughable enough to me.I'm not going to give a scene by scene, part by part break down of this flick, there's not much to tell. The action scene's are badly edited, at one point the guy who get's shot has short hair but you can clearly see, unless your blind, that the body double has a bad conk job, like he wore it out under the lights or something.Come to think of it the only scene was the sex scene between the lead guy and gal, they got down on a bathroom sink and it look good ya'll, LOL!! Overall I'd say if you have cable and some free time on your hands and your looking for a movie where you'll laugh and say WTF is this S###? Then this is the movie for you.
bort13 I'll give it this: I didn't stop watching, and it's not corporate, which is kind of cool. But my internal critic cut it to pieces -- I suppose I see too many movies. Wooden script, the slang just sort of clanks out of their mouths without any kind of flow. Editing, mentioned before, is hit and miss; sometimes it evokes a good ghetto feel, but mostly its irritating -- jerky, quirky angles and really dull lingering facial closeups. The actors were marginal, though Letisha had her moments.I'm not sure why the audience supposed to care about Curtis, he's a total screwup and the actor is entirely expressionless and not particularly funny or endearing. The directing doesn't help make you love him or hate him, even; I just wanted him to shut up and get shot already. I didn't care about his impotent vengeance when that rolled around. The completely predictable ending isn't credible at all. I'm not sure why we're supposed to believe that some erstwhile successful dealers he deposes are stupid enough to fall for his petty scams. "Oh, you just got out of jail and are on probation? Here's thousands of dollars worth of cocaine, go run it around the corner for me. Now don't steal from me, etc."A good sex scene in the beginning gave me hope, but it was let down in the end. Handling of a rape scene was slightly eyebrow-raising, if only mildly interesting. There are better movies in this genre that don't insult your intelligence by trying for some kind of authentic ghetto realism while more resembling a film-school offering. 4/10, an F.
swatwat The acting wasn't the greatest, and overall it had an amateurish feel to it, but I couldn't help liking this flick. I'm not in the game(drugs) so I can't say how realistic it's portrayal of that world is, but I can say that I didn't regret spending 90 minutes watching this movie last night.
d6v6l6 Yes, As one might assume from the title 2 G's and a key is a modern classic. Not only is the acting superb. Aaron Spears who plays "Sad Dog" the drug dealer is incredible gives a feeling like he really does sell crack to kids. He is eviler than Jack Nickolson in the Shining and Ten times the actor as Jack ever was or could be. The screenplay was clever and was full of twists. It potrated the crack ridden' streets of the ghetto beautifully with incredible cinamotgraphy.IT worked on so many diffrent levels. On one you have the powerful adn moving story of a drug dealer and his hatred for life. on another level you see the influence of Trufo' and Niche. The movie takes surrelelism to the next step. IT is as if Salavador Dali himself painted this story, it is like magic. This movie is incredible it is up there with Commando, and Scream 3. SO next time you are thinking about renting "Gone with the wind" or "Citizen Kane" Instead of wasting your money on that outdated crap take out the modern classic " 2 g's and akey"
