@@TheWaynos73 He's not coked out of his mind. He's just a psycho. You've lessened the scene suggesting he's coked out of his mind, that's Jimmy Jump. He's dangerous.

i'm 49 and love gangster/mafia movies and i have watched most of them, for some reason this movie never appealed to me, but now i'm getting curious......
Walken’s best scene for me was when he shows up in the older cop’s house near the end. ‘I’m not your problem i’m just a businessman’. Such an incredible monologue. So damn true. You will never stop drugs. There will always be someone else.
@@TheWaynos73 It's a very layered scene, though. The older detective and Frank are sides of the same coin. They've got this boiling rage to them. Frank's a bit full of himself when he does that monologue, in that he calls himself a businessman, even though he's brutally killing and destroying lives. The older detective has been playing it by the book, isn't foolish enough to think he'll end illegal drugs, but when Frank humiliates him in his own home and rubs it in, the detective snaps. His shooting through the handcuff chain speaks more bluntly about his intentions than anything Frank said. Frank crossed the final line.
Jimmy Jump Has Been One Of My Favorite Characters In Cinema Since I Seen K.O.N.Y In Theaters. The "Chicken" Line After Shooting Snipes, Still Gets A Laugh Outta Me!!💯
Saw this movie in the Bronx as a double feature (Fairmount Theater) with Death Warrant as a 10-year-old. It was my introduction to Walken. Went for Van Damme but stayed for Walken.
Don't even show anyone this hidden gem , they don't deserve to see it tbh !!!! Otherwise they will bore it out like Goodfellas!!!! Keep this film to yourself & thank me later 💯
I remember when it came out (1990) and yes, New Jack City was near the same time (1991). Living in NYC, all my other white friends all preferred NJC for some reason. I was heavily into hip-hop at the time and was a photographer, so of course I preferred the cinematic super stylishness of KoNY. And stylish it was. Its major flaw was its shallow script and dialogue apart from Fishburne, who really blazed across the screen with an amazing character that is criminally unknown today. The film's spiritual companion isn't Goodfellas or New Jack City, but "Deep Cover" starring Fishburne which arrived not long later (1992). Those two films were the best performances of his career.
Don't forget Othello and Ike Turner, he was in his bag back then. To this day you can't tell me he wouldn't have crushed playing Malcolm had he and Spike not fallen out (with all due respect to Denzel, of course).
I agree, the dialogue in KoNY was pretty weak. I’m not a movie guy, but I watched reservoir dogs last week after not seeing it for 20 years.. dialogue was amazing. Then watched KoNY last night, although dialogue was stereotyped ..I enjoyed the 90s flashback and Walken.
Loved how "King Of New York" Made the City & the Hip-Hop underground a major character with an authenticity few films have other than maybe "Cruising". Fishburne was on fire in this flick, setting the bar high for all that followed, not sure if anyone has even come close to his bigger than life character that he created in this one. Casting for this film was near perfect. ❤🔥
This channel has made me go back and watch/rewatch movies in a way I couldn’t have appreciated them before. Great editing, great content, great job. Thanks!
Both New Jack City and King of New York benefitted by having rappers feature heavily on the soundtrack. Which made the rap music press promote the film's to fans so it already had an audience before they were released.
I saw King of New York and New Jack City in the same theatre, and I thought "The cops in New Jack City consider going vigilante; the cops in King of New York actually do it."
@@VonWenk I have not seen njc in a long time but if I remember correctly it is not a pure crime or gangster movie like king of NY, but genre wise, is more similar to The Departed or Donnie brascoe in that it is an equal mixture of the cop movie (police procedural) and a crime movie. Whereas King of NY is a straight up crime movie, with the police storyline being a secondary storyline to the main story
SUBSCRIBED. I saw it opening night in Fairfax, VA in October 1990. Graffiti Bridge was sold out LOL. We were the only ones in the theatre. Blew our minds.
Me and my boys watched king of New York for the first time when we were 16. We got baked as hell and watched the movie like always. We were blown away.
It's the greatest villain death in the history of cinema but keep that to yourself otherwise everyone will over play it & everyone will ruin its beauty , this is one hidden gem that belongs hidden tbh
The amount of big names in this movie was nuts. Fishburne was fantastic in this movie! In the short time in my life where I was hanging around criminals, I saw there are a lot of those kind of guys around so it's fun to see it being portrayed pretty well.
His mom dated a black guy that loved movies when he was a kid and had even written his own screenplay. He talks about it in his book Cinema Speculation.
Dude literally goes out of his way to write disparaging things about black people in his movies. He makes good movies but there’s a lot of writing that shows he doesn’t like black people collectively, even though he’s written some individual black characters well.
Same. A few others that seem to b forgotten r Thief and To Live And Die In LA. Those flicks remind me of my dad a ton. Both those movies had awesome scores as well
Only part I disagree with is his naming of Fish's best "three" moments and leaving out his death scene where he shoots Snipes and laughs maniacally before Caruso kills him. "Where's my chicken, Black??"
Don't forget Schooly D theme song. He came out before NWA in 1986. He was the darkest and scariest rap period. More scary and any gangster rap that came out. Ever.
0:29 Lol@ movie newspaper articles made in a time when they didn't think anyone would ever be pausing the movie to actually read the articles. Each paragraph is one long run-on sentence and it reads more like the script than any newspaper article.
Another thing people don't seem to realize is that Balxploitation fillms were made to keep audiences segregated. Eg: Give one group Superman, James Bond, and give the others Shaft, Coffee and Foxy Brown. But guess what, it backfired and people crossed boundaries and enjoyed it. So Q.T. knows art when he sees it. He tips his hat to black culture and makes it known. Leave him alone.. Let him do what he does best.. You all did it when Spielberg made The Color Purple. Hmmmm 🤔 no outcry there..
I love this movie omg i remember when I first saw it i was young but the whole fkn cast was outstanding Christopher walkin was absolutely amazing in frank wright role!!!
The difference between Ferrara and Scorsese is that the latter was brought up around actual gangsters, in the old, socially conservative environment that produced criminal gangs in a family setting. Ferarra, on the other hand, doesn't seem to base his characters in this great film on real life experiences. King of New York is a great film, and forms a nightmarish, almost mythic landscape that originally blends hip hop imagery with organised crime. Scorsese wouldn't make this film because it is a world made up from the director's imagination rather than one like GoodFellas, which despite its heavily stylised dircection, is more realistic.
Frank is out and his enemies start going down one by one. They do a terrific job showcasing his rise back to power in the relatively short span of the movie compared to other movies you just don’t see that. I’m kinda glad it wasn’t longer.
3:55 gotta disagree with Quentin. King of New York is the Diet Coke of New Jack City. New Jack City is definitely loved more by black ppl than King of New York. We love King of New York too, but New Jack had more of a culture impact
An excellent flick and most of the Actors involved went on to amazing careers. Frank White became a cultural icon. Notorious B.I.G. Embraced it and used that character as a model in his music.
Where Laurence differs from Denzel Washington or Forrest Whittaker is that he sheds everything from role to role. None of his characters have similar quirks or verbal inflections to one another. He’s truly a chameleon being a different person each time.
Spoken from a 43 y/o Black........For anyone to think Quentin Tarantino is "racist", your absolutely wrong. He like, lots of White Americans just love Black people and black culture to the point, they dont like being white. And us Black folks love all back! List to his excitement talking about the movie.
Don't even show anyone this hidden gem , they don't deserve to see it tbh !!!! Otherwise they will bore it out like Goodfellas!!!! Keep this film to yourself & thank me later 💯 Tell everyone u know to just keep watching New Jack City like the lames everyone is these days !!!! This movie is only for special ppl , nobody else deserves to watch it❤ I first saw this in 2009 & it blew my mind , even the shoot out followed by the insane car chase of Larry & Wesley exchanging shots at each other in the rain & then Larry Fishburnes death scene was all one long amazing sequence & the greatest thing ive ever seen in a movie ❤ it was so good that most ppl don't even deserve to even see it!!!! This is one film that should only be shown to yourself & one other person close to u❤❤❤ My favorite thugsta film hands down & I'm glad it's unknown to most ppl because otherwise everyone would just wear it out & make it get old & boring!!!! This is the only film i don't want to get bored of so i don't show it to barely anyone & i only watch it once in a blue moon cuz it's that perfect!!!!! Everyone in this film was amazing , the cast , the shootout scenes , the chase scene sequence leading up to the best death scene of all time was so original & so iconic!!!! I never got so high off of watching a single crime film!!!! Ever!!!!!!
One time for using Schooly D’s discography for the entire movie and how it married the chemistry with the visuals that other mob / hood movies would do from that point.
"I got work for you. Come by the Plaza Hotel. Ask for Frank White."
One of the coldest line deliveries in any film, ever.
absolutely!
No wonder movie did not made money. White guy with surname White(😂) leading the gang of blacks. Missguided liberal gangster fantasy.

Hearing Quetin talk about the anxiety of watching this movie, I've always had that but I couldn't understand what it was, or why. Amazing.
Yeah it's dark and grim, it won't let go just like R.Scott's LA was always dark and rainy.

A career high for Lawrence Fishburne as well, I thought. He was excellent as Jimmy.
I dig Kiss Of Death also.
@@SlickNik94 his character in Proof of Life was easily the best thing about that movie too.
@@matthews7805 same with Wesley Snipes. That scene where they arrest Jump in the chicken shop is intense AF.
He used to be a great actor, but I won't begrudge the guy for wanting a steady paycheck.
"I never killed nobody didn't deserve it." Christopher Walken as Frank White.
It’s one of those films that’s great because it sticks in your mind, well after your first viewing.

Thank you, Quentin for calling him "Larry" Fishburne.
Its Laurence just ask Camron😅
Taratinos obsession with black culture but having it formed mostly pre hiphop era is pretty interesting to me.
I think it starts with his love of black exploitation movies.
That hip hop tune in django was the WORST!!!
His mom dated a black guy that loved movies when he was a kid and had even written his own screenplay. He talks about it in his book Cinema Speculation.

I friggin LOVE this movie
Tell me my iPads not spying on me. This pops up today on my RUclips and last night I watched this movie on prime. Word to your mother.
An excellent flick and most of the Actors involved went on to amazing careers. Frank White became a cultural icon. Notorious B.I.G. Embraced it and used that character as a model in his music.
I remember watching this movie at that time. Loved it back then and became a Larry Fishburne fan. His character did steal that movie.
One thing he missed. This is the first and only time we see Laurence Fishburne and Wesley Snipes ever in the same movie.
Deep cover is pretty good too. I still listen to the soundtrack at the gym.
Saw it five times in the theater -couldn’t get enough ⭐️ apparently the audience booed at the NYFF premiere-still is great, always will be..
Where Laurence differs from Denzel Washington or Forrest Whittaker is that he sheds everything from role to role. None of his characters have similar quirks or verbal inflections to one another. He’s truly a chameleon being a different person each time.
