Storyline
Did you know
- Trivia(at around 4 mins) Early in the film, Shawn Wayans's character says that his father is only a few years older than him. Lahmard J. Tate, who plays Ashtray's father, is less than two years older than Wayans. Cuba Gooding Jr. is only 7 years younger than Laurence Fishburne, who played his character's father in Boyz n the Hood (1991).
- Goofs(at around 9 mins) When Ashtray is getting a haircut from his dad, in one frame he's wearing a barber cape in the next one he's not wearing one, then right before the scene is over he's wearing it again.
- Crazy creditsRobert Schimmel is listed in the opening credits, yet he does not appear anywhere in the film, and is missing from the end credits.
- Alternate versionsThe Unrated version contains the following alternate scenes: Loc Dog's chat with the thug chick at the barbecue is extended; After Ashtray is released from jail Loc Dog, Preach and Crazy Legs play a game of Po'Nopoly; Loc Dog's dream is shown at the Old School scene; During Toothpick's drive by, instead of Ashtray running away he tries to save Dashiki, making more sense why he is suddenly lying on the ground; When grandma is said to have the "juice", she chops the guy's head off and puts it in her purse, referring to 'Dead Presidents'.

Featured review
Excellently funny, not to be missed
This film is one of the best spoof films i have seen in a while. The Wanyes brothers bring their unique comedy style to a great comedy. i suppose you have to have seen all of the films which they are making fun of to fully appreciate the comedy but once you have seen Menace II Society, Boyz 'n' the Hood, Friday And Higher Learning you will want to watch this film over and over again
