Good concept, poorly executed.

There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

With retirement on his mind, a successful young drug dealer sets up one last big job, while dealing with trigger-happy colleagues and the police. Superfly is a remake of a film with the same name from 1972 starring Jennifer Morrison, now this movie was just a waste of time from start to finish. The actors were phoning in, the characters were the stereotypical drug dealer and the movie was just awful to begin with it's like a Black Panther meets Shaft for the poor and even worse than both of those titles combined i'm afraid plus the shower scene? what was that now? like we're still doing this kind of things? (0/10)

Youngblood Priest (Trevor Jackson) is a cocaine kingpin in Atlanta. He has done well because he is smart and lays low. He wants that one more big score, one that will expand his business and take risks of being exposed. And that causes all kind of problems. In the film Priest is described as "Morris Day" looking, and responds "Who is Morris Day?" with an expletive. In comparison to the original this one is more vulgar and the music wasn't that great, except when they managed to play some of the original sound track. Perhaps an unintentional statement on society. Without a character named "Snow" it is not a realistic Atlanta drug film. If you are looking for another bad guy protagonist, this is it. Killing, drug use, and strippers. Guide: F-word, sex, and nudity.

I'm dumbfounded at all the bad & negative reviews this movies received! I mean come on, it's made to be a B grade, Gangster, cartel. cocaine dealing "started from the bottom now we here" kinda flick. What do people expect? For it to be nominated for movie of the year? The movie is an over the top, hood flick where Priest is your everyday local Atlanta Inner city kingpin. He's got the connections, the money, the woman and the respect and wants to do one last major score to get outta the game, yes,yes...it's been done 100X's over but the lead character "Priest" and his partner put a new & refreshing feel to it. Him & his crew bump heads with a rival crew known as "Snow Patrol" who bring even more life into the movie & Their over the top actions & way of life will have you loving to hate them. "All white everything" is an understatement for these guys...Cocaine white Lambo's & Range Rovers to Head to toe White fits, and of course plenty of All white Cocaine. Priest wants to get outta the game, and for his one last score to "do it big" he goes straight to the source & cuts out the middle man. Directly to the plug. The man behind it all, a Mexican cartel boss who he shakes hands and partners with, while cutting out his ORIGINAL partner, an old head who put him on and taught him everything he knows about the game, and how to do it all while staying "superfly" in his over the top fits and prince haircut. Although he wants out, with his recent upcomings of climbing to the top of the local dope dealing scene, his crew wants more & one particular member chooses not to use his brain while driving down the road in a brand new 7 series BMW while getting some "brain" puts the whole crew into a not so desirable situation where the cops now know who he is, and they want a piece of the pie. It's 2018, do stright cops sill exist? Or are they all crooked, in Superfly they're like everyone else in the film, out for their own. Priest must outsmart Crooked cops & the snow patrol & a pissed off ex partner he Cut out. Ignore the bad reviews as this is a fun movie that has many good laughs and comedy in it.

The new Superfly movie with Trevor Jackson was good and it had good action and I liked the ending. It stayed true to the original Superfly story done in the 1970s but has some changes here and there - I went and saw it yesterday and was glad I did. Some people are claiming it was not good but I think they just want to be negative and some might even have jealously and is trying to destroy it. It was not perfect, and Trevor Jackson's hair could have been "more permed" to have that Ron O'neal look, but it was worth seeing.
