Title: Paid In Full
Post by: WC Iz Active on October 21, 2006, 09:27:02 PM
Who else loves this movie? This is one of my 20 favorite movies ever.  I thought everything about the movie was perfect, it has everything that you want in a good movie.  The acting was on point to.  I watched this again last week so thats what reminded me about this movie.  Obviousley Mekhi Phifer did a great job but I also thought Wood Harris was awesome to and Cam'Ron did a great job to.

Yeah it's a dope movie. Like you said the 3 main actors did a good job. Not anywhere near my top movies, but definatly a solid hood film.

<spoiler---->I found it bizzare though that Ace gets shot in the head, but when he recovers he doesn't have a any scars.<end spoiler>.

Yeah I found that odd to.  Yeah usually a movie like this would never be close to one of my favorites but this movie is a exception for me.  There are some dramatic ass parts in this movie, I just love it, I want to watch it again ;D

Great Movie. "First Movie ever i merked out Mekhi Phiff." -Killa
All three actors were good. Based on a true story. I also thought it was tight how the Survivor video by Jeezy was based from This film.

Actually Oklin that has nothing to do with it.  Yes I think Cam was a great actor in the film but I loved everything about the movie.  More typical Oklin trying to act like he knows my reasoning.

yup that was great, the guy was talking shit all tough about Cam's boy so Killa did what had to be done.  I didnt like Cam's character though obviosuley cause the shit he did at the end but fuck his acting was good.

He thought Mekhi was holding out the whole time...He did what he had to do

^^ah nah, Mekhi's son was kidnapped and was getting his fingers cut off cause the money wasnt gettin paid, Rico(Killa) was selfish and when he killed Mehki he knew that he was also basically killing his son to cause the ransom money wasnt gonna get paid.  They were homies, regardess of the "drought" that was going on, Rico never should of done what he did and I am happy that he got ratted out on at the end.

^^ah nah, Mekhi's son was kidnapped and was getting his fingers cut off
his little brother. itīs funny as hell that Cam signed up to play a guy that snitched on half of Harlem. especially since they dissed Po for that before and after Cam made this movie lol.

It was his little brother. Rico does snitch in the end. He say's he'll give up people from B-More but not anybody from NY.

Post by: WC Iz Active on October 27, 2006, 08:59:27 AM
^^nah Rico(Cam) says he will only snitch on a couple of guys doin their thing in DC, he says he wont give up any names from Harlem cause when he comes back to the city in 25 years he will still be the king.  He never snitched on Harlem like other dude said.  And I am pretty sure it was Mekhi's Son, he refers to him as his lil man the whole movie and I believe he mentions multiple times towards the end that he needs to get his Son back.

From Wikipedia: Mitch's brother is kidnapped. In attempt to get his brother back Mitch attempts to make ransom from drug money.

^Yeah I just found out that was his brother, although if u read reviews 8 out of every 10 reviews refers to him as his Son, movie wasnt clear about that.  But Rico never snitched on Harlem he made that pretty clear at the end

Yeah at first I thought it was his son but at some point in the movie it says it's his brother. I knew he said he wasn't goin to snitch on Harlem though if you read my post I state that.

This is why I said he never snitched on Harlem, I know u had it right but this guy was dogging Cam's character for something he never did.

^check out the Don Diva mag with Po. he admits to telling on pretty much EVERYBODY in Harlem that he grew up with.

the movie was great tho, the slang was on point, but the best part was the hustle.  maybe they could have added a little more to the movie, to not make it seem so two dimensional with the drugs and the money, but it did show the struggle to stay on the straight path with ace, the average hustler with mitch, and the dirty nigga u cant trust with rico.  they did a good job with this movie, the best rocafela movie they ever put out, hands down.
