SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

dworldeater Bones is an urban Gothic horror flick starring Snoop Dogg and Pam Grier . Snoop is Jimmy Bones , a supercool gangster that also looks out for his community . When his homies sell out and snuff out Bones to make money selling crack , the neighborhood dies off with him. Bones not resting in peace comes back for revenge and to see his lady ( Pam Grier ). The flashback scenes from 1979 are very much a nod to the blaxploitation era that Grier was undisputed queen of . However , this is a horror film and has great atmosphere ,gore and creepy stuff in addition to the coolness of Snoop and Grier . Most of the f/x are practical and for the most part look good . The film is'nt perfect , but lower budget horror is much like pizza . It needs cheese, Bones has more than enough to go around . Bones is to Gothic horror what Tales From The Hood was to Tales From The Crypt. So, if you are down with that give Bones a shot. It is much better than the haters suggest.

insomniac_rod I watched this movie under the misleading title "Diabolical Mansion" but what can you expect from 4:00 a.m. local Mexican programming? I decided to watch it but I didn't know it was a Horror movie! I mean, Snoop Dogg stars on it. From the opening sequence where he gets off his car and acts like a pimp you don't expect a revenge from the grave movie.I was surprised and satisfied with the movie's content and violence. True...it isn't scary, violent, or even spooky but it features some interesting sub-plots that deal with revenge and crime. The perfect combination.Please give this movie a try but think that it stars a Rap Star, it deals with a rap soundtrack and the rap scene... It's a treat.Recommended for Late Night Cinema insomniacs like myself. Don't waste your money on it, just wait for it to air on t.v.

Dr Jacques COULARDEAU The film is original in a few ways but it is mostly a jigsaw puzzle of borrowed elements. One can recognize Clive Barker's Hellraiser, or a new episode of Candyman, or an extension of Nightmare on Elm Street, or even Halloween or some Stephen King film. But it is black, black and black again and the hood is always very close, the hood of Boyz in the Hood and its crack and the execution of the little local gang leader by his associates including his protecting cop, and he finally comes back to get his vengeance, get even and recapture all his executioners and their next generation of children, including his own daughter. That does not make a film with a meaning, just some kind of thrilling entertainment, if you like blood and maggots, underground tunnels and skeletons in some kind of cabinet, or is it a cupboard or a closet? A little bit sad in a way because the situation and the theme could have produced a film with some insight in black imagination, in black white-induced schizophrenia, and it does not.Dr Jacques COULARDEAU, University Paris Dauphine, University Paris 1 Pantheon Sorbonne & University Versailles Saint Quentin en Yvelines

The_Void Hey, don't you think it's kind of odd that someone would stab themselves in the chest with a flick knife and then bury themselves? If your answer to the above question is "I agree", then you could have been, or may well be part of the team of monkeys that came up with the idea for, wrote and cast this movie. It's a huge shame that stuff like this gets made when there are screenwriters and directors with good ideas and just need some money. Speaking of money, if you want to waste it; Bones is as good a film as any to waste it on. Well, if you like to waste money and you enjoy pain, that is. Bones is notable for one of the most incredible reasons a film can be notable for, and that is that it stars a rapper. The rapper in question is Snoop Dogg (a.k.a. Dogg, Snoopy, Snoop Doggy Dogg, Snoop and just about every other lame variant of the words 'snoop' and 'dogg' that you can come up with). The tired blend of Hellraiser and rubbish movie starring a rapper see Snoop Dogg get to flex his acting muscles, and he proves with his one-note performance in this movie that he is just as adept at the art of acting as he is at the art of music making. If you catch my drift.To be quite frank, despite his best efforts to look cool; Snoopy Doggy Dogg ends up looking like just as much of an idiot as his name suggests he is. I mean seriously, who goes by the name of 'Snoop Dogg' when they don't have to? Aside from it's star, this film has a number of other problems. It's plot is very tired, and it follows the exceedingly boring and familiar tale of someone who was killed being resurrected and then taking their revenge. The tacky dialogue, duff acting and illogical plotting don't help this, and not even the murders can save the film, as it's easy to say that even they manage to score maximum points on the dull scale. I will never forgive the people responsible for this movie for wasting all that time and money on it, when it could have been put to better use. How about giving one of the more experienced directors who could produce something good, if given a budget? I guess that's one of the many problems with things like rap music; if it sells, it will continue to be made.
