Three old friends -- Mike (Omar Epps), Roland (Taye Diggs) and Slim (Richard T. Jones) -- recount memories of their shared childhood in Inglewood, Calif., as they prepare for Roland's wedding to his fiancée, Lisa (LisaRaye). When the groom goes missing without a word, Mike and Slim struggle to find their nervous friend and return him to his impatient bride before the wedding begins. Along the way, they continue to swap stories about lessons learned during their awkward teenage years.

One of the rare coming-of-age Black movies where no one died 🖤.
It’s wholesome ain’t it ✨✨
There should be more like this
Somebody dies everyday in real life. Movie or no movie. Somebody gradma didnt wake up today. You should stay ready insteqd of pretending you have crontrol over it. 😮😮😮 you could be deqd tonight. Over soome white man in a suburb drinking and driving..... no control.
Fun fact the 3 employees at the corner store is who the movie is about. They're the real Mike, Slim, and Ro
The intro song is Back in the day by Amhad from 1994
The three guys in the gas station behind the counter if y'all ain't know were the ACTUALS guys they're portraying in the movie fun fact 😂
The Wood is the movie of my life. I was just like Mike growing up. The song playing at the beginning of the movie is Back In The Day by Ahmad. The song was his one & only hit. Fun facts: Malinda Williams who played young Alicia was 29 years old when this movie was released. She’s older than Sanaa Lathan who played adult Alicia, six years older than DeAundre Bonds who played Stacy & 10 years older than Sean Nelson who played young Mike. She played a junior high school student & she was believable. Omar Epps & Sanaa Lathan were also in Love & Basketball, Taye Diggs & Sanaa Lathan were also in The Best Man, Brown Sugar, The Best Man Holiday & The Best Man Final Chapters, Malinda Williams, DeAundre Bonds & Antwone Tanner who played Boo were also in Sunset Park. One of the dudes behind the counter at the store was Rick Famuyiwa the director of the movie & the other guys were his friends he grew up with. This movie was based off their upbringing. Please watch the following coming of age movies:
Cooley High
Boyz N The Hood
The Inkwell
Roll Bounce
ATL
Dope
I love Roll bounce a hundred times better than ATL. Some of the girl characters get on my nerves and what’s disappointing is there was never a scene with T.I getting to know Keith David character.
@@derickspencejr.6998 I like ATL better but i do agree with the ATL aspects.
18:22-18:24 police wiped the jheri curl activator that was in Stacy's hair on his shirt real disrespectful like
I def thought it was something else for a second. That’s why I’m glad they clarified. Cause that was sus
Mackin and Hanging
Sanaa Lathan playing adult Alicia was the biggest faux pas of this movie, to me. Like, why? 😂
Malinda Williams is older than her.
In 1998-1999 Lela Rochon would have been a better casting for the adult Alicia.
Lmaooooooo I woulda liked if that was cast differently too
Exactly as if Malinda Williams isn’t finer than Sanaa
Fax Malinda Williams finer than Sanaa
I was one of the people recommending this. It's one of my favorites. It was my generations "coming to age" like House Party and Cooley High. Although the movie is dealing with adult characters reminiscing; so they were teens in the 80's, it still reminded me of my junior high years in the late 90's (I'm telling my age lol). I saw this movie at the theaters at about 12/13 and so I related to the younger flashback scenes the most. and back then I had the biggest crush on young Mike and Stacy lol.
The opening song. Amad "Back in the day".. 2nd song Too short "Freaky tales"...
Thanks gang 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
@@DagiTingz : Fa sho..
I never understood why teachers would always make new students stand up in front of the class and introduce and tall about themselves to the rest of the class like why ? They don't care who I am. However I had to do something similar when I started 6th grade. The teacher just had everyone go around the class say are name and say what subjects we liked.
LMAOOOOO yooo I hate that. Like I don’t wanna talk to these niggas. I’m here to do my class work and mind my business like tf
@@DagiTingz thankfully I only had to do it that one time all through grade school.
The song playing when they was in the red impala going to the dance was “freaky tales” by too short
Thank you gang 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
Definitely A Classic... Great Job Cutie 😉
Thanks gang 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
bro gave him a reach around during the pat down 🤣
Bruhhh when I tell you I had to rewind that. Because I was like HOLD ON
intro was so smooth
You know the vibes. Gotta give a lil sprinkle sprinkle
Lmao loving your reaction! I second that you should definitely check out The Inkwell and Cooley High those two movies I neverrrr see reactions to and I think you will have a lot to say about both Lol
The Inkwell is a hidden gem 💎 & Cooley High is the grandfather of coming of age movies.
Awesome reaction of my favorite movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Great pick sist'a. As usual I enjoyed hearing your thoughts.....
And that oldschool music from the 80s-90s Heart&Soul, R&B, and HipHop would have you swooning hard thinking about life
This is a feel good coming of age black comedy. One of my all time favorites. The only one that I love with Omar Epps. Hope you react to Love don’t cost a thing, roll bounce, the fighting temptations, big momma’s house, barbershop, lottery ticket and like mike.
found this channel yesterday and been binge watching 👌🏽
Ayeeee welcome gang. It’s always lit here. Enjoy the content. Subscribe for more. I got heat coming 🔥🔥🔥
BIG UP MEEEEE! yo smirk looks just like that too LMAOOOO! w upload, w reaction! my womanlisaraye in here too. UGH!
Lmaooooo I know you was gonna love seeing Lisa Raye
Fun fact I heard that the dudes the movie is based on are the store clerks when they was buying grits.
One of my favorite movies definitely need more movies like this now cooley high roll bounce & Johnson family vacation are other black movies that are wholesome & great
The cop was wiping the Jerry-curl juice on his sweatshirt 😂
The 3 store clerks are who the movie is inspired by in real life
You Should watch "Dope" ! It's directed by the same guy and it's in the same universe as The Wood. There's even a cool lil cameo in it that I won't spoil
19:21 They are the real three friends the movie is based on.
Heyyyy! It’s Dagi!! 🖤🖤
I wasn't even a 90s baby and i lived for this movie 😂
This is a really good and funny movie
The guys in the store is who this movie is based on
Sis I been waiting on you to react to this 😊 I liked the video during your intro 😂 THANKS ❤️
**Oh yea and the 3 guys in the bodega behind the counter are the ones the movie is about.
Love this movie. Reminds me so much of my middle school and high school years
Opening song Back in the Day(remix) Ahmad. Pretty much a one hit wonder, but a banger
Song in Stacy's car Freaky Tales -Too $hort a fuckin classic
Back in the Day - Ahmad Lewis was the song in the beginning.
I have so many fun facts for you. I went to that jr high/ elementary it's called LaTijera middle school & elementary. The 3 guys working the cash register at that liquor store are the 3 main characters this movie is based on. The high school they attended was baby rivals with mines (although I actually graduated when this movie came out 99)Their schoo is a catholic school called St. Bernard's. Both our high school's St.B & WESTCHESTER 🙌🏽 are by Southern California's 1st Black Beach ⛱️ "Bruce's Beach ". The area this movie was filmed is in Inglewood on the borderline near Ladera Heights known as " the black Beverley Hills ", it's between everything. You can go from mansions 4 blocks from the hood, to the beach , to Crenshaw blvd or Hollywood all in 1 day. My aunt also attended the directors ( 1 of the guy's behind the counter) wedding that happened the day after this premiere ( which happened a couple of days after my graduation) . So many great memories with this movie, I'm SO HAPPY You watched ❤️🙏🏽
Also, the three workers at the gas station are supposedly the actual characters. The names are probably changed.
he said sit yo cry baby ahh in the back🤣
The song when they were in the car with Stacy was Freaky Tales by Too Short
Thanks Gang 🫶🏾
