jfgibson73 If you liked the first one, I can't imagine why you wouldn't like part two. It's a low budget movie, and if you aren't expecting certain limitations, welcome to the medium of film. But I would say many of the performances seem totally naturalistic, something I notice in a lot of these low budget "hood" movies. A lot of the actors and actresses really just seem like they're "being." Of course, there are some totally wooden performances too. The story of Beanz follows him into prison and we meet more colorful characters--sometimes too quickly. When Mariah Carey showed up listing off complaints, I really didn't know where we were or what was happening. The flashbacks are harder to follow than they need to be, and we go off on too many tangents, but we get to where we're going. Oh, and sorry for the spoiler, but finding out that Biggis is El Plaga was a fine little reveal, even if it didn't have much shock value. I liked his little tic, by the way, where he only gets mad if you ask him to repeat something. Also, ending was cool. I will probably watch this one over again from time to time. Lay down, Ceasar.

Johnnycitystar Maybe Not a classic but this film is decent.A big step up from the first one better characters,better acting and better funnier scenes but this movie has too many problems.It's Very long,the pacing is strecth out,and the plot just like the first is very confusing but in the end it's not bad for a gangster film.The film leaves off where Beans The main character from the first film has been sent to jail for lots of reasons and crimes.now he is serving 15 to 30 years in jail.in jail he meets a couple of new characters Free and "El pollo loco" who help him to get out of jail if he decides to join together to become the number one guys in Philly.but the only way is stopping them is Beans' rival Dame who still has a score to settle with Beans and doesn't like the fact that he isn't given a shot to become number one in Philly.so both crews from Beans and Dame go at each by killing each others robbing each other and etc.when Beans comes out of jail he's mad that his crew has been slacking and making him look bad while out of jail him and Dame confront each other and they find out that they were getting played by "El Pollo Loco" in the end Beans and Dame team up to get back at "El Pollo Loco" but Loco finds out that his close friend betrays him just to get money and he sets up the whole thing about Beans and Dame Loco finds out and Kills him in the end and Beans and Dame have ended there beef...For Now.Now the plot at first is straight forward but just gets lost and confusing at times With too many flashback scenes that have you lost but if you watch it a couple of times you may understand it.The pacing is long and drags.but the reason why is that this movie is a little long so maybe that's the reason.as for Character development it has stepped up since the first film.You know a lot more about Beans and Dame's characters how they started,how they became drug dealers the thing about Beans and Dame is both are drug dealers but have different personalities Beans' is rough,tough and does it the dirty way.While Dame does it professionally and clean without getting his hands dirty it sucks that this development wasn't shown in the first.As for the acting it's a mixed bag.there are no stand-out or memorable performances but it's decent.For Beanie Sigel he has step his acting game a little bit and show inspiration and that thugness that makes his role believable.same goes for Damon Dash as he fits in his role and plays his role so smoothly and is having fun with his role.N.O.R.E. does a good job playing the comical "EL Polo Loco" as his character brings the humor into the film and gives an a good performance.Freeway is given yet a Dean-pan role so I can't say much about his performance Omillio Sparks gives the same performance that he gave in the first and isn't as funny as he was in the first film just annoying.as for the rest of the actor the all do a so-so job so good,some bad.Overall it's a decent movie go watch it if you haven't seen it.

itssosublime I can't say there weren't a handful of somewhat enjoyable moments in this film, most of them simple, gratuitous comedic moments. But to be brutally honest, you would have to be very easily entertained to enjoy this flick. It's kind of like the producers just took small pieces of what worked in similar films and applied them with cut & paste. The plot line is extremely pedestrian and even less discernible. This worst thing about it though is that it's a blatant exploitation of the urban Black culture. Essentially every character is a drug-dealing, gun- toting, wanna-be mafioso. The characters and their lifestyles are of course part of American society, but is there anything positive or beneficial in exploiting this stereotype? I get that it's not supposed to be "Boyz n' the Hood", but there's simply nothing here of any redeeming quality. This has nothing to do with the color of the actors, simply the fact that the movie is a huge waste of time and completely intellectually devoid. It's a prime example of why most musicians should never think of crossing over into the realm of acting, unless of course they're simply making the movie for their own personal amusement. Otherwise, leave it to the professionals, please. 4/4

dahulk Whats that song near the ending scenes, were Beans is sat down with Dame in there little mini truce, there's one song-possibly soundtrack- in the back It goes on to the ending credits as well, it was also played when Beans, ABM and Dame n his gang were battling with Nore. I have typed in various songs in Limewire, but i still cant find this particular tune anywhere. Someone must no the ending credit song, with all the Chain gang in it, Freeway, Beans, Young Gunz and possibly Sparks and Oshino. I appreciate anyone who nows of any sites which contain track listing for State Porperty 2 or any other films done by Roc-a-fella.
