Verenigde Staten 1991. Misdaad van Mario Van Peebles. Met o.a. Wesley Snipes, Ice-T, Judd Nelson, Chris Rock en Mario Van Peebles. Waar te zien ...
Het maffiaverhaal van New Jack City bracht niets nieuws, maar het niveau van geweld was verrassend en controversieel, de zwarte blockbuster was mede dankzij New Jack City plots een feit en deze film liet voor het eerst de machtige uitstraling van Wesley Snipes de vrije loop. Snipes speelt Nino Brown, drugs kingpin in Harlem, New York. Hij is slim, rijk, knap en even moeiteloos megalomaan, gewetenloos en hard. En hij valt hard. Ice-T is hier op z'n best, als narco-agent, Judd Nelson als zijn collega is een misser.

NEW JACK CITY opened in theatres on March 8, 1991, just four days after television outlets released the video of LAPD officers beating Rodney King. The film’s premiere became the setting for brawls and gun violence in New York, Chicago, and Las Vegas, resulting in at least one death. In Los Angeles, Westwood’s Mann Theatre overbooked the premiere, leaving ticketholders outside without seats. The resulting “Rampage in Westwood,” the name given premiere night by the Los Angeles Times, saw rioting, looting, and police intervention. Interviewed for the LA Times, Ava DuVernay, then an 18 year old student at UCLA, explained that the Mann Village Theatre’s decision to shut down NEW JACK CITY is because “they don’t want black people in Westwood,” paralleling a similar panic around the premiere of Spike Lee’s MO’ BETTER BLUES. “They’re using (NEW JACK CITY) as an excuse. They’re afraid this place is attracting too many black people, basically.”

In 1986 New York City, unemployment rates have led to an increasingly large class divide. Drugs and gang violence are destroying African-American neighborhoods, and the birth rate of drug-addicted babies is on the rise. Nino Brown heads the “Cash Money Brothers” gang with his best friend, “Gee Money,” and stuttering heavy, “Duh Duh Duh Man.” In cahoots with Italian mafia members Don Armeteo and Frankie Needles, the Cash Money Brothers run a burgeoning cocaine empire. One day, Gee Money reveals he has been dealing “crack” cocaine on the side. He raves about the potent drug and suggests the Cash Money Brothers begin dealing in it. Nino is initially reluctant to change his inventory, but he soon calls a meeting in the backroom of the Spotlite nightclub. There, Nino’s girl friend, Selina, introduces him to her cousin, Kareem Akbar, an accountant who wishes to leave his white-collar job for a more lucrative position. Nino hires Kareem on the spot and announces his new plan: to set up headq

“Truffaut once said it was impossible to make an anti-war movie, because the war sequences would inevitably be exciting and get the audience involved on one side or the other. It is almost as difficult to make an anti-drug movie, since the lifestyle and money of the drug dealers looks like fun, at least until they're killed. This movie pulls off that tricky achievement.” - Roger EbertA tricky achievement indeed, New Jack City is an old-school exploitation film about the war on drugs and Reagan-era capitalism with style for miles. A mesmerizing Wesley Snipes stars as the head of an organized crime family in Harlem who sports a new wave haircut, wears alarming suits, and conducts murderous business meetings while chomping on a banana. It’s hip hop aesthetics by way of Dick Tracy and Dracula, and somehow it all works. Co-starring Ice-T and Judd Nelson as the cops out to take down Snipes’s drug operation from the inside, with a young Chris Rock in a small but meaty role as a recovering crack addict. The feature film directorial debut of Mario van Peebles (who also acts in the film), son of the late great director Melvin van Peebles. Some blink-and-you’ll-miss-them cameos by Flavor Flav and reggae star Eek-A-Mouse. Catch this extraordinary film before they release the remake, because how could it possibly be as good?
