@mcfast123 There was two in that gang, Spanky and Looney Tunes, back then blacks were accepted in mexican gangs, it wasnt about race at all like it is now, It got like that in the 90s.
theres these two bulls standing on top of a hill looking down a herd of cattle and the son says dad lets run down and fuck one of those cows down there and the father says no son lets walk down and fuck them all
This could have been a great,but hopper made it into another cop buddy movie.The film should have been about how the gangs deal with each other,and the cops.Not cops on how they deal with each other and gangs.And the only gang that's given any attention,is one that's not even the bloods or the crips.Also,some pretty bad 80's music doesn't help.Herbie hancock?lol
You have a point. It would have been good if the perspective was from the gangs and not from the cops. Still, I think the movie captured feel of Watts and other neighborhoods at that time rather well, the dress and the mode of expression.
@faustozone It has some great scenes,especially the drive-by scenes:One of the first scenes,where the blood is blown away in his front yard,the one while their having a dance party,the ending when that little crosseyed vato giggles,when duvall dies,because he felt betrayed.Some of the shoot outs had moments,but mostly looked to staged,like towards the end at the crips hangout.The whole movie seems to tame,and that penn/alonso love story was ridiculous.It just doesn't hold up.
@TheGatorfan93 They didnt even show the bloods hardly it was about the crips and cholos wich is still the most popular type of gangs out there. Cholos and Crips.
@GrassLok that gang truce didnt last long, the crips and bloods truce didnt last long as much as the cholos truce against eachother didnt last either.
I heard of this Film when it first came out but didn't think it would appeal to me . Then it came recommended by a friend at my summer job . I was 14 back then and very impressionable. Its hard hitting . Sean Penn as always is great to watch .
This, is the best gangster film. ( 'American Me' is good too)
Menace to Society, and South Central, are weak because they are NOT about gang banging. Even though they were both set in South LA, they totally avoided dealing directly with gangstas. Weak ass movies.
This film is about gang banging, through-and-through, very 1988.
Awesome how it captured that time perfectly.
The car chase through Watts really showed off the neighborhood as it was then, very realist.
@ElectricBlueOil , thats exactly what i said when i first saw this film in the early 90's. i thought the whole "white guy hanging with chicanos" was weird until i read about Joe "Pegleg" Morgan. he was one of the top dogs of the Mexican Mafia and he was 100% white.
@ihavebeaverteeths <its not pepper spray its spray paint hahahahahaha and who cares its a fuckin movie and a great one you should really get off your high horse and watch it before you comment
@MrGmanx I thought I was the only that noticed that GTA San Andreas was based on Colors. It was also based on other gangster films such as Boyz N' The Hood and Menace to Society. Officer Tenpenny and Pulaski (Who ironically is voiced by Chris Penn, Sean Penn's brother who plays Pacman) are based on Pacman and Officer Hodges in C.R.A.S.H. with Grove Street Families and Ballas and the Vagos/Aztecas being parodies of the Crips and Bloods.
its funny cuz now when they have gangs in movies they have white people and black people together in gangs hahahaha fuck hollywood we all know that gangs are for mexicans and blacks
@joshkatell ever watched gangland??? show how stupid u are gangs are more diversed now than ever before only reason why there are only black ppl in this movie is because in that time period the marjority of the gangs were black if they were to do the movie now i could assure u that it will be multiple ethnictys
@joshkatell did u read the fucking comment??? i didnt say there was a specific gang of just white and black ppl i said there are gangs with white and black people dumb fuck
@joshkatell Back in the day gangs were multi cultural like Watts for example used to be watts varrio grape it was black and mexican and a very big gang until the mexicans went under the sureno banner. only more now its less diverse
There's two bulls standing on top of a mountain. The younger one says to the older one: "Hey pop, let's say we run down there and fuck one of them cows". The older one says: "No son. Lets walk down and fuck 'em all"
Honestly the only thing I remember about this movie is Leon who was in the Five heartbeats and he played Little richard was him having sex while the cops surrounded his house, and they show his amazing nude chocolate body at the time humping the girl.....and Damon Wayans dancing in a stereo store in a diaper.....and Sean Penn's amazing pale back during his sex scene with Maria Conchita Alonso.
@whitetrashoutlaw tell me about it, the gangsters looked real now like the ones they protray in movies now days, the up to date gangsters were real looking in this movie and of course mi vida loca, american me and blood in blood out which those took place in the 70s, now they make gangsters look fake and paisa.
@2213CHOLO he directed this movie huh? he did a great job on this film, these gangsters were updated, now days hollywood doesnt know how to make gangsters look real they look fake in movies now days, but this one was up to date, this is how exactly how the gangsters looked in 1988 - 1992
This is the WORST excuse for LOW SELF ESTEEM. What value is there is colors,gangs,drugs. All these are lies coming straight from the devil himself to decieve the wolrd, or at least the kinds that feed into this.
Not true actually. Both the blood and the crips are known as black gangs because the majority of the people in those gangs are black, however it's not exclusively black. There's no rule saying that you have to be black to join those gangs. A white guy slipping into a crips gang isn't really that far fetched.
I never understood why "Malachai" from Children of the corn was kicking it with the Latin Kings in this movie. He's the whitest dude on the planet. red hair,freckels and all.
everybody who thinks gangs are the shit f with u man if we were mexicas would probably the closest to dangerous gangs i am not even proud of wht is going in juarez stop the drug trafficn'
@GrassLok Forreal LA now is nothing compared to LA in the 80's early 90's. Before it was about who had the most juice now it's some racial drug money bullshit
