The Fact That The Movie 'Chiraq' Was So Bad.....

The movie was OK, not at all ground breaking like Do the Right Thing. Probably could of been executed a lil better but it's not as bad as people claim it to be. I can totally understand why anyone from Chicago wouldn't fuck with it.

This movie did not end poverty in Chicago so , the movie and its agenda failed

Matter fact its getting worse out there, 50 MURDERS in Jan 2016! Chicago tryna do Adele numbers out here.

Chicago got like a quarter of the population of NYC but has way more crime based off any metric you can use.

@obnoxiouslyfresh since it's your hometown, give us the inside scoop on what's really going on out there.

I have no idea why it was so bloody this January, considering the cold weather. I think it was about 50 homicides and 250 non-fatal shootings. I really don't know. Last January got pretty bad. There should be a drop this month through early April for tax season and probably a spike come mid April.

Too many gang factions and they all beefing with each other so it's chaotic. Fifteen years ago, there were like 10 major gangs. Now there's like 500 sects, and sects within sects. Too many enemies to keep up with. Astonishingly, we haven't lost any kids or innocent bystanders this past month. Whoever got hit was supposed to be hit, so I guess that's a good thing.

Oh wait, just kidding. Maybe we won't be seeing a drop. Apparently, there have been 4 murders in Chicago this month. It has been February for 1 day and it's 4:30 pm now. 4 bodies.

Who was I fooling.

Did you have any lines in the movie or was you just an extra?

@ghostdog56 I didn't have lines. & I prefer the term supplemental character.
 
The biggest problem in chicago is misunderstanding the problem in chicago, u have so many people that are stubborn on they opinion of the problem that no one gets around to truly addressing the problem, let alone trying to solve it
 
the movie was straight

there were many instances where, the dialogue was very cheesy, and cringe worthy, but overall it was a very very good movie.

Chiraq in my opinion, will be one of those movies whose appeal rises over time. i think 5-10 years from now, this movie will be considered a classic to the next generation.

No a fictional city would have been better but only half the people would have checked the movie.

Spike tried to play it both waus in interviews when he was getting backlash from Chi-natives. He was saying its not about Chicago... then why the fuck is it called Chiraq?

He said its not a comedy... But it was

Satire = comedy

Nothing funny about kids murdering eachother in Chicago

And even tho he sets it in the Chi nothing about it was authentic to Chicago

The movie did have its funny parts but lets be honest if that church scene didnt get through to niggas that murdering kids and each other needs to stop asap then I dont know what to tell them dumb Chicago niggas cause nobody else is addressing the issue to the public but Spike....my point is yall niggas trying to shoot the messenger

the funniest part of the movie was unintentional. it was the scene, the girls from the gangs were planning the sex strike for the first time, and Teyonah told them no more dick, and all the girls were like "say what!",and Snoop from the wire was one of them.

The movie wasn't bad. The biggest complaint was that he chose Chicago as the setting; I think he should've created a fictional city inspired by Chicago (and other cities).

naw it was the name....i can see why ppl in chicago pann this shit

Spike should of called it something else, and spent a lil more M's as in milli and months to promote it. It would of done better. overall it was still a good movie

I bought the Chi-raq dvd this weekend. I have to say I really like the movie. Some shit could've been left out or changed but overall that was a damn good movie IMO.

Even though its named Chi-raq the movie ain't just about the shit happening in Chicago hence Angela Bassett talking Bodymore and Killadelphia and a few other cities in the movie.

Also this movie is better as A DVD, BLUE Ray. IT's one of those movies, viewers won't fully grasp on first watch cause, there so much subliminal imagery....so much hidden gems. Like the all white tank, that had penis envy written on it. Or the purpose for the armory scene.
