B-Boy Blues

Very impressive. It gives a bit of early Spike Lee's jittery cam style set in Brooklyn. It also is an honest tale of the black b boy gay culture whose narrative is brazenly missing in the LGBTQ film arena. The acting was great all around and if her role was longer rapper/talk show host Heather B who played a supporting role could have easily received an Oscar nod for Supporting Actress as her role of the caring auntie.

Putting politics aside, the film was excellent. I was thinking I might see something like a YouTube flick, but this film is a cinematic accomplishment. It is well shot, great acting and a nice adaptation of the book- using current themes while staying true to the overall premise of the book. Great job for the director Jussie Smollet, whether you like him or not.

Fantastic film and directing. The realistic depiction of gay relationships and culture that resonated with my entire family. The love scenes were tasteful, artistic, and romantic. The music was phenomenal and perfectly interwoven, The movie left me wanting more of each character. Well done!

I liked that this movie had some negative aspects to the main character's relationship. You can tell this movie had a certain budget to work with to get produced... but overall I loved the storyline.

I have been waiting for the day when this novel would actually become a movie and here we are. It captured pretty much everything from the novel but brought it to present day. I found myself watching it at least 3 times so far. It was refreshing to see another aspect of the SGLBTQ+ communities instead of the standard stereotypical portrayal. I recognized a couple of the actors from TV and web series. My hope is that if this is hit that Jussie and Mr. Hardey will direct and produce another movie from the B-Boy Series. All I can say is thank you.
