No more movies like these today

That movie practically made New York Undercover

This is why I miss DVD’s. The special features that came with it. 💿📀

One of the greatest movies of all time!

R.I.P Duh Duh Man.

Wesley actually went and did his research.. Fucken amazing.. He put in the work..

Wesley Snipes will be remembered for this movie more than any other movie he does

Rock a bye baby... ~Keisha

Scarface's demise was he got high on his own supply. Nino Brown, on the other hand, got high on his own success. He relied on believing in his strength to make it the world. As a result, it leads to his downfall. Classic.

Everything aligned (actors, setting, 90's era, director etc.) and it will forever be a classic.

That Bike Chase is classic

My aunt took me and my cousin in the middle of a family vacation to see this. We just had to see it and we wouldn’t stop bugging her😂. Not to long after we made her take us to see Boyz In Tha Hood. I miss her

I love Mario's energy you can tell he is so passionate bout makin this film. That's why NJC was a great movie

No one else could have played Nino but Wesley.

New Jack City is still Dope what a Classic.

Judd Nelson was so underrated in this movie

“Wesley was the least famous guy on the set.” At the time so were you too Chris

May You Soul, Rest In Peace George Jackson. (1958-2000)

Chris rock the Best crack head ever in a movie lol classic movie

This stellar move with an all star cast and a platinum selling soundtrack still stands through the test of time. 📺🎞💿🎼

What about the soundtrack !!!!????? This movie is a masterpiece

I really enjoyed this documentary. Every aspect discussed I remember experiencing in the theatre as a 12 year old. The opening scene gave me goosebumps and I still felt it when Mario talked about it. This movie stayed on my mind for weeks after I watched it. It changed my life. Nino, Pookie, G Money, Keisha, all these characters were instant classics. Then Martin just crystallized its iconic status with his iconic tribute on his iconic show.

Mario van pebbles is awesome for this. This is how you do a documentary. Show us the locations walk us through it all, so awesome

this movie made Chris Rock

Wesley went from playing a cop in King of New York in 1990 to playing Nino Brown in New Jack City.

this teaches u a lot about directing

I was honoured to see this in this in the cinema the day it was released

What a phenomenal directorial debut by a film director that left such a impact on a culture :-) very intriguing,the techniques done by van peebles,talk about being given lemons and making lemonade out of it,Mario said it best,boy did he improvise!!! Another extremely debut by ice T as well,you definitely believed his performance!! Brilliant how this film is a crime drama with a hip hop tone,very fresh!! This was the gangster genre anthem for me growing up,my scarface,my GoodFelllas,my godfather,me being a 80's baby. Thumbs up to Mario van peebles for not only directing my urban crime drama anthem but also my favorite western,which is extremely underrated and unappreciated,POSSE!!!!

Original creativity genius art a life lesson in the work of Mario Van Peebles and the rest of the actors and actress in new jack city truly one of kind.Most importantly a tribute a recognition to actor Bill Nunn and his entire Family God Bless.

I noticed Wesley even before he did Michael Jackson's video.

RIP Duh Duh Man

Allen Payne got swole for this one. He was at his best.

I just finished watching this classic...✊

Mario Van Peoples did his thing in this film making for the culture it will always be epic gold everything they talk wearing driving rappers doing now art repeating itself

Wesley looks and talks like a real artist

Damn I remember it like it was yesterday when this was about to come out cause I remember thinking that guy is the guy from the Bad video Michael Jackson and he was in a movie called Wild Cats before that who knew Wesley Snipe would become a mega 🌟 from those roles

Awesome documentary!

I LOVE THE WAY HE EXPLAINS HIS WRK- HE'S A FCKIN LEGEND 😎

From drug dealin to vampire huntin nino brown is the real G

my favorite part "why i got to b owing u i was prom queen of king high school this os beneath me u used to be prom queen now u aint nothing but the prom feind

Right on cue Henry Cooper. That's a lot for all these movie documentaries. Since I'm a screenwriter I take such a cool interest in how films are made as they get from the page to the screen. This is such great inspiration. =)

One of my all time top 10 movies

A great movie , Great job by everyone

Love this documentary and the movie,,forever..Super classic..

This is a super classic movie

i will never call van pebbles corny again..

New Jack City is that movie. Like the story was dope. Mario Van Peebles definitely did a good job bringin a dope cast because they got thier roles so perfect. This is a classic

I'm glad Wesley turned down the offer to do New Jack City 2.

I grow up on this movie as a kid a classic. PapAGlenn

I love Mario's passion almost like Quentin Tarantino's passion

really good to see this, one of my favorite films - had it on video tape and recently bought it on DVD to keep. great flick.

All I can say is,...this movie was perfect.I can't think of anythink that they could have done differently to make the movie's character's more believable. Every single actor played their role to perfection. I almost wished for a sequel some years ago called 'New Jack City 2: Nino's Revenge'. I envisioned that Nino Brown survived falling over those stairs, lived and tried to get his revenge,...but some classics just need to end where they are and just remain untouchable like this one. One error I did notice in this documentary is when Mario starts talking about the scene where G Money shoots "Rasta Man" in the head. Mario is so excited about describing the scene that he keeps referring to him as "Fat Smitty". LOL! "Fat Smitty" was actually the character that Nino Brown takes from The Carter and walks down the street naked. I don't know how much they paid the guy to do that scene but I remember in the ending credits of the movie he didn't use his actual name. Probably to avoid future embarrassment no doubt. If I remember correctly his name in the credits was 'Eek-A-Mouse'.

Nothing like it to this day in time! Shoutout to Mario Van Pebbles 🎦💯📽📽!

This was great. I like the background on the movie info. Very well done.

this is my all time favorite along with set it off

Nino Brown: Sit yo' five dollar ass down before I make change

lmao Mario Van Peebles still rocing tanktops #stillgotit

A classic indeed ! Wesley Snipes was so good in this movie that I just can’t see him out of character. All the others were amazing too but Wesley made the film happen.

Im so glad I watched this

Can we take a second to ADMIRE the fashion at that time?! The slacks😍 thick gold chains❤ and silk shirts🥰 Whew!!! G-Money absolutely created the word ZADDYYYYY🤗😍😍😍😍

I love the movie .. Good job..

Lots of truths in this movie that are still true today especially Neno Brown testimony on the witness stand at the end

I didn't always appreciate this movie. I thought it was gratuitously violent, (it is) and diametrically opposed to what I want to see for my fellow black people. But it was and remains a reality. This is in fact one of the grittiest movies on the subject. I know for a fact that even with all its problems it's still a classic being both a product and ahead of its time

Two classy actors plaid the druglords and the rapper played the cop

Nino and Gee Money were like the modern Macbeth and Duncan. Only Duncan didn't turn on him.

To add who are fans or need research on the bike scene used into the film, dig over the famous car chases e.g. French Connection, Diva, Bullitt, Beverly Hills Cop, The Getaway, etc

1 of my favorite movies

the force who makes slaves out of men is the exact line in the song flying high in the friendly sky Marvin my favorite composer

Where was Christopher Williams

Rock a bye baby

Wesley Snipes look like he still dressed in character, this dude was still Nino Brown in this interview lmao

Super Props & Big Thank you for this post. Big piece of our Melnated Brothas and Sistas Culture. Right out the horse's mouth!

Great Movie-Classic

Using the music to market the film..... Batman soundtrack by Prince in 1989 comes to mind.... I think it weren't that unique Wesley.... Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)... Ghostbusters 2 (1989)....

Just finished watching my 1st time good movie

this is so cold

Wesley Snipes speaks well

Wesley Snipes was reportedly disappointed with how the film turned out, can't really tell from this interview but once you know you can see it slightly cracking through. He still sells the hell out of it though.

Chris Rock Is too funny in this. Lol

Love it love it! Fantastic.

CLASSIC MOVIE

Nothing compared to Wesley in Sugar Hill. He had a heart,he had integrity, and It's almost like they ignored that role purposely in order to maintain his image as a heartless bm. He was handsome,kind, gentle and ruthless in Sugar Hill and they hate to portray bm as multi faceted as that. Sugar Hill was a great portrayal of bm that are gangsters, trying to escape the life and live normal.

Yes but its been well deserved support! Those actors took the ball from there and ran with it! Lol!

The 1st movie I saw ar the movies a classic

Only took 36 days to make that’s no time to make a classic film like NJC

Great Movie

I just got through watching it again on KZfaq, legendary man legendary.

Trying to find out how they did the bridge scene the very beginning of the movie.

Gee money was a badass and Nino Brown

Like Welsney Snipes said (not verbatim): Hopefully you get something out of this movie. Hopefully there is something to get out of this movie for generations to come. Yeah absolutely! There is a message: Have no part of drugs: The interest of getting high of drugs or the greed from the business of it! The business of drug dealing and doing drugs has not improved at all in this day and age, it's probably gotten much worse, so the hope is that this movie gives some insight on all of that.

Where are the comments on Mario's parenting skills?

Love this movie

Funny how things works out. Mario did his thing.

Classic!

So Chris rock turns into Mario in lethal weapon!

OH MAN A BLACK MOVIE THATS A CLASSIC AND SPIKE LEE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT WOW.
