This movie is great, as far as entrainment value is concerned. There's a point (about 12 minutes in) where you just start laughing at how bad the movie is. The story is horrible (it doesn't seem to flow), the acting is terrible, and the set design is the worst I've ever seen in a movie! It's like The Game and the guy who played Omar on the Wire (because that's exactly who is character is) decided to make a movie one day during a smoke session, and viola!Highlights to look out for. -The Mehican drug lord who always refers to his cocaine as 'coca' -The blunt props that you can tell are just normal cigars (or cigar props) -The referral to every woman as bitch and of course the lesson passed down on why not to be a 'rat-ass snitch' and why snitching is bad. Oh and how could I forget the dea agent (whose like 40 years old) falling in love with The Game, I didn't see that one coming.Seriously though, watch it, especially watch it if you're an aspiring film maker, as it will motivate you to say, I can make something way better than this crap. But as far as entertainment value goes, 10 out of 10, it's funnier than most comedies I've seen in recent years. Hilarious movie! watch it!

Freshman director Ivan Frank's "Belly 2: Millionaire Boyz Club" is an execrable in-name-only sequel with virtually nothing in common with Hype Williams' superior shoot'em up "Belly." Neither of the two characters, either Sincere or Tommy, who survived "Belly" show up for "Belly 2." This formulaic sequel set in Los Angles is low-budget in every category. The shoot outs are lame, and the profanity-laden dialogue is mundane throughout this shoddy 76-minute crime melodrama that boasts no surprises. Like "Belly," "Belly 2" has a protagonist who narrates the action.Scenarist K. Snyder and Frank focus on a thug named Reginald 'G' Bailey (Jayceon Taylor of "Street Kings") who has just served an eight-year stretch in the pen and is prepared to go straight. No sooner has G gotten out than he hooks up with his old pal, Tone (Michael Kenneth Williams of "Brooklyn's Finest"), and they get back into the swing of things by knocking off an old competitor's business. Amp Dawkins (Bryce Wilson of "Beauty Shop")informs on G to a corrupt cop, Detective Coleman (Ed O'Ross of "Red Heat"), and Coleman questions the Tone. When the Tone refuses to provide any information, Coleman gives him a count of five to fess up and then blasts him in cold blood at point blank range on the number four. Meantime, what slimy Coleman doesn't realize is that a DEA task force is conducting surveillance on him, while one of their newest undercover operatives, Agent Alexis Douglas, has been sent in to romance G and get the goods on him. She gives G a wristwatch, but he doesn't know that it contains a recording device. Ironically, Coleman kidnaps Douglas and threatens to ice her if G doesn't return the 150 keys. Frank stages a sloppy shoot out in a fenced in warehouse. Predictably, G blasts Coleman. When Alexis confesses that she is an undercover cop, G blasts her at point blank and walks out.Altogether, "Belly 2" is bad, really bad. This street level gangsta flick does nothing that you haven't seen before and done done better. Whereas redemption played a part in the original "Belly," redemption has nothing to do with anything here. At fade-out, a wounded G staggers around from a firefight and vows to keep on doing what he does best. He displays no remorse. Skip this inferior fluff.

after Waist Deep the Game teams up with Wire star 'Omar' Michael K. Williams and swagger through a Compton crime movie like it's nothing.should see the robbery, 2 shots and some sharp back and forths. good visual department. fans of the first Belly might not like it, this is a laid back style of video work. I personally prefer this color scale and kinda cuts. the slow mos and beats were the right spots.the shoot-out are really something. you get the wit moments and the action too. Game toting a pump gun... some scenes were a kinda cartoonish, a bit because how the actors look and dressed. all in all, of the 73 minutes 25 is a alltime movie classic moment. 'cut the romance' -this should be made series with Atlanta, Miami - with Luda and Nelly. Pras and Dre. should be good.got a script that has got coke business, the Bay, swamp alligators... Eye of the Storm. with a rap star in the main role who's got a war between labels and a shipment coming up ala Key Largo...Millionaire Boys Clubs is a good movie, go see it.

The title of this movie should have been a give away of what was to come. Belly 2: Millionaire Boyz Club. There was a made for TV movie called Billionares Boys Club in the 80's. Changing billion to million and boys to boyz doesn't cut it. Belly by Hype Williams is a crime classic hands down. Belly 2 is nowhere close to the original. The Game is a talented music artist, not an actor. On screen he doesn't seem comfortable. Check out his role in Street Kings for further proof. DMX and NAS in the original Belly have a presence. Us movie fans can't see what is happening behind the scenes, but it looks like every director pushes The Game to act over the top as a criminal. They might as well have him wear a hat and shirt that screams I AM A GANGSTER! It doesn't fly with movie fans. DMX and NAS had a subtle edge to them in Belly. If this movie was not called Belly 2 movie fans may have not expected as much. It was not close to the original.
