Finally, the movie that proves that Justice isn't always Poetic, Jungle Fever isn't always pretty, and Higher Learning can be a waste of time.

When Ashtray moves to South Central L.A. to live with his father (who appears to be the same age he is) and grandmother (who likes to talk tough and smoke reefer), he falls in with his gang-banging cousin Loc Dog, who along with the requisite pistols and Uzi carries a thermo-nuclear warhead for self-defense. Will Ashtray be able to keep living the straight life?

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A razor-sharp parody of '90s gangster and hood cinema that skewers its source material through escalating absurdity and fearless humor. It's a comedy that swings wildly between satire of media stereotypes and ridiculous character moments, never letting the social commentary get too heavy.
