I won't lie. I usually don't do the 'independent hood movie thing' for several reasons. That is another post though. This joint right here though was sweet. You will see some familiar faces if you hit the blog. Clark Bar of OTRecords plays a prominent role in this joint. Chuck50 and Shizz Nitty are in it too actually. Rennie Rox did a good job with this. Also a HUGE SHOUTOUT to one half of the Wize and Ive show..one Wize Shabazz. To me he 'Denzel'd' that role. Seriously. Yeah...yeah...I know..you heard it all before. Check it out though. It is a nice joint. Part 2 is bound to be coming if Rennie put up Part 1 so..and yes it is a FULL FEATURE MOVIE.

Rennie Rox Presents- The Game of Death...Official review
http://thewarehous.blogspot.com/2009/11/rennie-rox-films-presentsthe-game-of.html
Judging by the trailer and from what my sources told me about the movie, I could see that it was going to be a good viewing. I was hesitant to give a FULL review on it however, because I had not seen it personally. That has changed. I have seen it in its entirety now. I will give you my take on it now without giving up TOO MUCH of the movie's story. Hopefully.
The boy Clark Bar showed off his acting chops a bit in this film. For those of you who don't know, he is a rapper signed to OT Records. For those of you who do follow the blog, you already know who he is. If you are worried about seeing him get up there and doing a horrible job, DON'T. You will be entertained. I won't throw names out there or anything like that (coughs),middle name Armani(coughs) but ummm yeah. He might be onto something here. @ acting. Pleasant pleasant surprise for those of you thinking that it might not be that way. Matter of fact, OT Records was sprinkled throughout the film. Shizz and Chuck50 are both in it. I won't give away what they do or how they play into it but they are both seen. Another person that REALLY IMPRESSED me personally was Wize Dome. I felt like I was watching a Denzelish type performance. He did a great job. Again, all the actors did. Jimmy Jam did a GREAT job in his role too. I really thought he was 'Jake' after watching him in that role.
I was going to REALLY get into the plot of the film but I am not. I will just say this. This is not the typical, dope boy gets on, gets the girls, gets the money, and all is well until he goes he goes out in some BLAZE OF GLORY type film. Not at all. The plot gives you an insight of how things go down in Wilmington, Delaware on both sides of the drug trade. Involves all parts of the equation. Lets just say that. The film is done in a way that you could see this being 'any town' USA (Because, well, it COULD BE AND IS THAT WAY.) and that is a GREAT THING. It doesn't alienate demographics to me. Which is important. We all know 'it can go down' anywhere and the results are the same. You also get to see and hear some of the sounds of the area. I know that for some, Delaware is some place that you just pass through on the way to New York, DC, on the way down South or the way up North. This might put a little more definition of the slang and such from the area.
My ONLY complaint is that the film was not long enough honestly BUT it did leave us with a cliffhanger. Which I like for all my films to do when they are stories like this. Plenty of room for expansion in this series. After all, it is a 'game' and death isn't just exclusive to just one person so you never know what might happen in the sequel.
If you happen to have missed the trailer for the movie.....

Rennie Rox Films Presents....The Game of Death.
Shout out to Clark Bar (Sox in Da Air fame with Shizz Nitty) first off. Second, for those of you not familiar with the city of Wilmington, Delaware, this is a glimpse of what life is like there (and in the surrounding areas). I am hoping that this film gets some major love as all reviews of this film that I have heard have been stellar.
You say people aren't trying to make a change? I disagree. Some people are. The bad guy doesn't win in this one....As is usually the case in real life.
