After reading all of these commentaries, I now comprehend the reason why I fell asleep on it. While the originial "Belly" wasn't exactly a rated "A" movie, it at least had a bit of realism. This movie appears that it was titled as a namesake in order to gain an audience. Now as far as Shari Headley.....Damn, does sistah gurl need work that bad? I know she's been out of the game (no pun intended) for quite some time, but to make an appearance on a "C" (I'm really being nice w/this rating) rated movie w/displaced acting is pitiful. Although I loved Michael K. William's role as Omar on "The Wire," he could have sat this one out. Oh yeah...and the walk-on of "Snoop"......was a semi "Wire" reunion really necessary for the drug game effect in this wannabe gangsta flix? Gimme a friggin' break! This was soooooo not worth my time viewing. But hey, at least I got a great nap outta it.

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.

After the success of the first Belly movie it was inevitable that a spin off would happen. And just like most spin offs it is never as good as the first. Belly 2 is what traffic is to a free way. Bad. It has as far as I can tell no real plot. But you probably guess it! Yes thats right folks the same generic urban gangster plot that uses so much stero typing that it makes me want to puke. I don't care if the Game is in this movie. This movie is a cash cow with designed for 13 years old who have nothing better to do than watch junk. Please I beg of you do not watch this movie. It is terrible and just plain wrong. And if you think I am being to harsh, you watch it and tell me if I am wrong!

This is a movie that leverages the great work of Hype Williams and the cast of Belly to get viewers to take a look at what is seemingly a sequel - I can assure you it is not. Game, who plays G the main character, is simply horrible. He continues his abysmal acting career with this title. Just because you think you are a gangster in your rhymes does not make you qualified to play a believable gangster in the movies, if he were good at being a gangster he would not have become a rapper - those that can't do, rap.Plot is telegraphed a mile away and is the same gangster flick you have seen dozens of times before, but if that were not bad enough, the fuzziness of the poorly shot movie will drive you crazy. Most people make better looking movies with a $500 video camera. In short I was offended by this movie's use of the Belly title and will assure you that there is no way in the world it depicts any realism or lives up to the original's quality. I would re-title this movie, Belly 2: Unbelievable, Gangster Fantasy - I would like a refund for the time I wasted viewing this garbage.
