Juice

This powerful look at day-to-day life in ‘90s Harlem focuses on Q (Omar Epps), an aspiring disc jockey, and his teenage friends--Bishop (Tupac Shakur), Raheem (Khalil Kain), and Steel (Jermaine Hopkins)--who have to make a difficult decision: Walk the straight and narrow or lead a life of crime. Eventually, following the death of a friend, they decide they have to rob a neighborhood store to get the respect--or "juice"--they feel they’re due. With Samuel L. Jackson, Queen Latifah; Ernest R. Dickerson directs. 94 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English DTS HD 5.1 Master Audio; Subtitles: English (SDH), French; audio commentary by Dickerson; featurettes.
