I actually think it's trying to teach the opposite, that it's not okay, that men are hurting women with their antics. Whether it be the woman he actually loves (Mia), his mother, or leaving a trail of broken hearts. It also points out their hypocrisy that they wouldn't want the same to be done to their sister or whoever is close to them. Hence him getting what he deserved in so many bad ways. That's why Brandy gave him that speech about women not being what they make us out to be ie. b*tches, honeys, hookers, or whores.

Another interesting aspect of this movie is the fact that Darnell seemed to genuinely like Mia but CHOSE to put himself in situations where he’s juggling multiple women because he felt that made him “The Man” Then he pretty much stalked Brandy until she gave in because he saw her as a challenge & another notch on his belt instead of someone he genuinely wanted to have a relationship with. The whole time she made it clear she didn’t trust him & he gaslit & manipulated her. Whole time he got the nerve to constantly give his friend Mia a hard time because she was dating as well. It’s ALMOST the classic “guy ignores good girl for the bad girl” except for the fact that I wouldn’t call Brandy the bad girl. Her intentions were honest, she was honest about her emotions & when she had her vulnerable & honest moment he was more worried about getting his way… even lied straight to her face & went against his own rule & told her he loved her just to have sex🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ On top of all that he put his own mother in danger smh

I think about how this movie and Boomerang are both parallel. Mia (Regina King) reminded me of Angela (Halle Berry) from Boomerang. They are different, but the common similarity I found between both characters was they wanted the protagonist.

And I know most of the time they just wanna bother me. Brandy was minding her own damn business and here he comes bothering with her for no reason. I’m glad I saw this movie early on in life and I knew then that men will go to great lengths to get in legs and that’s why you can’t give them any.

I was on Darnell's side until I got my heart broken and I got played by some guy. People do not talk about the way you change after getting played with like you're not even a person

Darnell knew she would come to his club in the beginning, cause as soon as she made her glamorous entrance, he immediately decided it was game on by that point. & yea this movie also taught me that you can’t buy a man’s love. They either want you or they don’t. No amount of loyalty, great sex, cooking, how pretty you are & how good you are will make a man want you. What you do for a man means nothing if it’s not coming from the woman he wants it from. That’s why we need to keep our standards high, our options open, and to test a man’s want/love for us before giving our heart and body to them.

I was 16, when this movie came out. Time flies. Smdh At the age of 43, the moral of the story hasn’t changed. Can’t play with people’s emotions. For us men, if a woman tells you about themselves and gives you a warning, listen! I must say, the part, where Darnell’s Pathfinder was broken down at the police station makes me laugh to this very day. OMG! 😂😂😂😂😂

Darnell brought it on his self & baby what his momma said you gon learn & you gon see. Fucc around & find out 😂

Nobody: For the Nostalgia: “ baby even the gun is giving luxury” 😭🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭😭😭🤣😭🤣😭

I’m a man and I can say without a doubt that Darnell got exactly what he deserved. Sometimes it’s better to leave well enough alone and he couldn’t for the sake of the “ rep” or mega man status which is bs by the way. Both both Mia and brandy both played themselves over Darnell which was and is wild to me. This movie ain’t that far off from what the generation is like in today’s society anyways.

That DMX clip caught me off guard, made me lol!

Fun fact, depending on the job you picked for each branch, they don't train everyone in the military combat training.

They were both wrong. Darnell for how he acted, and Brandi for how she reacted. Darnell shouldn't have been playing around with those women and breaking their hearts. Brandi on the other hand should've got some psychological help for her pain. I know she was heartbroken, but she could've killed him. Love ain't worth losing your freedom and ruining your life. Both parties had to be held accountable for their actions. Don't get in a relationship unless you're in it for the long haul, and if you're hurt and upset, there's places to go for help.

Team Brandy because how can I feel sorry for Darnell dumb azz while he stalked her to get her, threw her away and he was even warned.

I lead my life Minding my business, protecting my heart, loving on my friends and family. If you enter my life and bring pain and chaos---You will meet Brandy 2.0. - Respectfully, Hollee

I saw this in theaters at the $1.50 movie theater when i was a teenager. Darnell was definitely the villain. His mom, Smitty & Brandy tried to warn him of his womanizing ways but he brushed them all off. Smitty & Reggie were the only mature men in this movie. Fun Facts: Bobby Brown was also in Krush Groove, Ghostbusters II, Panther, Two Can Play That Game, Gang of Roses & Nora’s Hair Salon. Lynn Whitfield played broke in Hard Lessons & The Women of Brewster Place.

When I was young I used to think Brandy was crazy but now I'm older Darnell deserves everything he got

I don't know if this is an underrated opinion or not, but I thought Darnell was a fool. Not because he broke Brandi's heart (which was foolish too). But the fact he chose Mia over Brandi. Mia was a great woman in the movie, but she didn't have as much to offer as Brandi. Brandi shared her wealth with Darnell because she saw a long future with him, together. She did everything for him without acting funny or him having to ask. She got him clothes, let him ride around in a limo, even offered to buy him his own club. On top of all of that, she was MADLY in love with this man. She wasn't crazy. She was going to be this man's peace. And he left a woman who really loved him for his old flame. That has always been the more standout foolish part of the movie for me than anything lmao.

I can't hold you I love that you highlight toxicity in the black Community especially when it comes to the love

When Darnell realized he was being put in the Friendzone by Brady he got out of the situation by rejecting her and it worked he got her - the horrific tragedy of her hurt emotions by trying to kill him

"IT'S. IN. THE CONTRACT. TELL ME I'M LYIN'." 😂😂😂😂

You was killing me with this “contract” lol too funny. But yeah agreed team brandy.

Damn straight I'm team Brandy. That's exactly what his ass gets playing with that lady like that!

Wait…. Hold up….. 😂 I forgot Mia was in the air force…. What was she the cook? Sis just gave up and gave in hahah and accepted her fate 😂

I have a question that I thought about. I honestly watch this 4 times and I think when he was kicking that friend stuff to brandy at her pool he was trying to be slick and sneaky link her. I honestly don’t think he truly loves Mia either. I think he cares about her yes but she is just a higher level of brandy. He’s been wanting her for years so she’s a higher notch on his belt. Giving up the other women meant nothing because he never cared. Ion Know I just don’t see true being in love.

You’re right. He didn’t really love Mia. If he did, he would’ve changed way sooner. Brandi wouldn’t have even been in his radar once Mia got back in town. Even when he slept the night at Mia’s place, his focus was still on sex. He implies he had feelings for her since childhood, but obviously the next logical step is to sleep with every other girl in town all the way up into adulthood and then decide he’s done after he got one last hit. He was a sex addict through and through and his little crush wasn’t gonna stop that.

I missed this, but Della Reese was one of my favorite actresses.

I am team brandy, after watching this movie as an adult and understanding what was truly going on…Darnell was wrong all the way and brandy was holding him accountable for his bull. He shouldn’t have tried to play games with a woman he knew he wasn’t going to be serious with

Til this day I’m Team Brandi!! She basically let Darnell Ass know that hey I’m not one to be played with & he still pursued her . That line when she told him “ There’s a lot of things in my past that you don’t about & that I killed my husband “ that would’ve been enough for me as well. Lessons learned & moral of the story is don’t play with a Woman’s emotions /heart & don’t tell someone you love ‘em if you don’t mean it… This movie still resonates & is relevant to today. Sad thing is some Men still haven’t learned & still play hands with a woman’s heart . I’m a firm believer in Karma & vow to always do right by a Woman.

I also watched this movie with my dad and as a kid, I felt like she didn't do wrong. She told him what not to do and he did it.

I forgot she plays Riley from the Boondocks 😂. Moral of the story is follow your first mind. If it looks like a clown and talks like a clown it’s probably a clown.

Thank you for the video. I never felt sympathy for Darnell, how can I when he was using women for his entertainment and personal conquests? The audacity to try and pursue a relationship with a loyal woman like Mia, but used and manipulated women like Brandi who was recovering from trauma. I was confused why people tried to portray her as the problem when I was a child, but considering that we have many Darnell's normalized in our communities I can see why.

That ending definitely give New York undercover vibes 🤣

They said when Martin was filming this movie he had to be hospitalized because he was acting crazy or mentally was unhinged. Regina king was pregnant but didn’t tell anyone until after the filming of the movie. It’s crazy because knowing she was pregnant and then knowing her son committed suicide makes me look at the movie differently.

I’ve always wondered did Brandy have other ppl helping her with her revenge on Darrnell

I thought she was crazy at first but I ain’t gonna lie Darnell did some crazy stuff too. Popping up at the job, all that stuff, so it’s kinda like don’t make me pull a you on you thing. Brandy just did it 10 times better 😂😂 Brandy was super crazy but at a certain point I would’ve just ended the bet that’s all Darnell had to do.

The understated makeup of the nineties was it! Not a spider lash in sight!

Every time you mentioned the contract & luxury I SCREAMED 🤣💀 I absolutely love your channel.

My late grandmother, her boyfriend, her best friend, and I all went to see this movie at the theatre when it was first released in '96. I was 14 at the time. After we watched it, I asked all of them who did they feel was at fault for everything that happened. I was stunned to learn that all three of them said the same thing: Darnell had it coming. I emphatically let it be known that everything was on Brandy, because she was clearly a nutcase. Years later, I watched the movie again on Netflix (by this time, I was in my late 30s) and I realized that Nana and her friends were right. Darnell caused all this foolishness to happen. Yes, Brandy was mentally ill, but if Darnell hadn't played around with her emotions, none of this would have come to pass. On a side note, it always tripped me out how the movie ended like a TV series, too. I'm glad I'm not the only one that felt that way. 😂

Team Brandy! You would think that considering this movie came out around 30 years ago, that men these days would be more careful and considerate so as not to get themselves into a situation like this, but no, they still to this day run the same shit, get in the same situations and take no accountability. SMH Side note: you clocking all the contracted luxury that Brandy was giving had me cackling 😂😂😂

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thinks darnell deserved everything she did to him .. he had all these women and thought it was all fun and games until he met brandy untill she told him abt her last relationship and even how she KILLED a her husband . Why would he even do that and thought she wasn’t gonna try and do the same to him if he played with her

Lesson from from this movie: A lady’s heart is like a claypot in the form of love, honesty, communication, and all of the important elements that come along with it. When she molds that clay thoroughly and hands it to the man or woman that she loves, it must honored and respected with equal love and compassion. However, if you break the claypot, and allow it to shatter into pieces, the unconditional love, trust, honest, and compassionate is gone forever, and can NEVER be restored or replaced in any way shape or form.

He was seen acting irrational with a fire arm I believe 🥺 he did try to explain in his special RUNTELDAT. The crew did a great job during production although Martin was very thin, exacerbated by the baggy clothes -Regina was spreading her wings after 227 with Ms. Whitfield giving face and body and EMOTIONAL RANGE 🤣. This was one for the culture. Another underappreciated movie - Sprung If you get time a request for little shop of horrors ( EVERYBODY had vocals for days on that film!! )🤣 Thank you again!

I like Mia she seems down to earth, and honest But I also don’t blame Brandy. I’m not gonna sit here and act like she’s really a villain when he created all of that reality that was going on that is on him. He just got his karma what goes around comes around you created some mess in the mess landed right back on you❤✨

Bobby brown was hilarious in this movie. I can see Bobby’s character playing the Darnell character instead of Martin just my opinion.

This movie was a big deal, because Martin the show was such a big deal back then. Plus, ain't no way they would have took down Deebo without a brick.

Thank you!!! Ever since I first saw this movie, all I ever thought was she wasn't in the wrong for losing it, he was in the wrong for playing with her emotions and poking the bear. But of course, because she's the woman, they make it seem like she's crazy, and all he's guilty of is being the player playing the game. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one to see how she was done dirty

The Chimp monk voice makes me realize how funny this movie really is.

Watching this movie as a kid vs. an adult is a very different viewing experience 😅
