Audience Member The Stick up Kid's movie was trash, too many twists and turns. I didn't know which way the next movie scene was going to go. The movie perpetuated violence, robbery, and bigotry, and nobody was held accountable for their crimes. What I saw in this movie were another bunch of clean cut thugs with light skinned girls and white chicks playing the supporting role. Thumbs Down on this Movie! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Good ideas about community empowerment, unity, and sticking it to the "man," but poorly executed, and cursed with terribly wooden "acting" by Tariq Alexander. Plus, those dialogue bits about the Moors owning North America were just weird. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Nice photography sets this film up well with close up action showing all the facial nuances. The story is simple with a few sub plots that keep it flowing in an entertaining way. Music is youthful and captures the scenes emotions and depth giving an added dimension. Actors create strong characters that are complex and full of feeling giving the film the boost it needed. Nibbles: Cherry pie with custard. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I really enjoyed this move Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Stick up kids wasn't that good of a movie.
