ice cube writes and directs and produce and act and make the sandwich and thoroughly spoil everything in this movie . if it be make by a white person it would be slat out of hand for be racist . write in crayon and it even use a country and western song ( coward of the county ) for the denouement of one of it plot line . yes and beat up the person responsible for the rape of someone you care about really settle the score . it doesn not get more sophisticated than that . jamie foxx play a character who continually denigrate the dancer in the movie until he show tenderness to one of them at the end for no reason but that hollywood and forget logic . i do not think that this movie feature heavily on his cv .
