HEY have you had your HAPPY MOVIE OF THE DAY? Mine for the night was called 'ALL ABOUT THE BENJAMINS'. It's got Ice Cube in it-lah, so do expect lotsa attitude and Cube-an grouch. Hey the original gangsta is selling out to Hollywood lah. No doubt it IS a funny movie, and stands on its own. But...

Compare this movie with Boyz N The Hood... this is a white movie with African-American actors. Wonder whatever happened to the edge, the hardcore anti-establishment sentiments of Boyz, New Jack City, Dead Presidents, and even Set It Off. Whoa that was great movie loh, cute chicks blasting the city away.

I suppose the minority has, in the words of this new movie, caught up with the Benjamins, and whatever social misalignment has been rectified. Hey... deep inside me, i know it too. IT IS ALL ABOUT THE BENJAMINS.
