A very good movie, but it's just strange.

Quincy(aka Q):He is a local Dj that makes mix tapes for money. When additions for a dj contest, he makes it to the contest. But after his superb performance at the contest, he and his friends decide to do something that will change/End their lives forever.

Bishop:Tupac's debut. Bishop is a tee, that thinks he has all the juice in the world. He only does that in fron of his friends, because someone else would probobly whack him. When they decide, life is bad, and decide to rob a store, Bishop goes from, your best friend, to your worst enemy.

Steel:Fat dude, and the dude that always get's picked on. He's good at videogames, and he really doesn't like fights or guns. But he gets exposed to the violent world after the rob a store.

Rahiem:He's pretty strong, and he always help Bishop, when he's being messed with by Radimas. Rahiem is the kind that trys to keep a positive input in the movie, but his mind changes, when he trys to rob a store with his other friends.

Radimas:Bishop's worst enemy. He always picks on Bishop when he has nothing to do. But when he messes with him after the incident with the store, boy, he wished, he never even spoke to him.

This movie is all about power and respect. But how Bishop becomes mr buddy-buddy, to I wan't to kill everyone is way beyond me. I mean, unless you have problems, or you a completly twisted phsyco, how can that possibly happen. Well, it's still is a positve movie, and if you like Tupac's acting, or a good black movie, go pick this up.

After 9 years, I finally got to see this movie on DVD. I've always wanted to see it, but you gotta admit that the price is pretty high considering the lack of extra features. I'm not disappointed at all with my purchase, but a few production notes and at least a theatrical trailer would have sufficed.

Anyway, Juice is about four best friends who quickly grow distant after a store robbery goes horribly wrong. It's a pretty involving story with some shocking scenes (though not as violent as they're reputed to be) and Omar Epps is okay in the lead role. But, let's face it. This is Tupac's movie. I didn't expect his debut role to be as powerful as it was! By now, I'm sure all fans have heard his now famous line, "I know I'm crazy. And you know what else? I don't give a ..." Truer words were never spoken about a movie antagonist. His character (Bishop) went absolutely nuts. I'm rambling, I know. But if you've seen the film then you understand why. Aside from Gridlock'd, this is Tupac's best performance.

So if you're a collector of Tupac material, pick the DVD up. Like I said, it ain't cheap, but it's worth it. And even if you don't like Tupac, it's still a very good movie.

IF I COULD WATCH "JUICE" EVERYDAY,I WOULD!!!! EVERY SINCE THIS MOVIE CAME OUT, I'VE BEEN RECITING IT LINE FOR LINE... EVERYONE HATES TO WATCH IT WITH ME.SO I WATCH IT BY MYSELF!! IF YOU DON'T OWN A COPY OF JUICE, THEN YOU DON'T HAVE A REAL COLLECTION.!!!!

Tupac's debut film was his best! His performance was hypnotizing and believable. A compelling movie about friends in the hood and how greed can turn one against the others.

Tupac is brilliant in this film alongside Omar epps.
This is a great example of Harlem Life. the word JUICE is very Powerful. This film is a classic. If you Like Black Action cinema such as Boyz N the hood, Menace 2 Society then you must watch Juice

Late legendary rapper tupac delievers one of his great preformance in this taught urban thriller. Other cast mambers such as Omar epps brings what his fans expect of him and is one of the most great actors to have never won an oscar. This movie will shock you and teach you that peoples lives aren't easy and you suspect.

juice was one of the best movies i've ever seen. I herd a lot about it so i bought it. When i saw it i was surprised of how good it is.i watched it over and over. This movie really shows the life in the streets.2pac was the best in this movie.If you liked this you should watch Above the rim and Gang related.

this is a definate classic. I watch it any time I can. Cupport friend kills other friends. he gets his in the end.and he got the juice now man !

Juice is a hip-hop charged adrenaline rush of a movie that takes place in the busy streets of New York. The star is Q(Omar Epps) who is a DJ and kicks it with his click called the Wreckin Crew. His buddies are Raheem(Khalil Kain),Steele(Jermaine "Big Hugg" Hopkins), and Bishop(the late great 2pac Shakur). The wreckin crew have fun and roam the streets looking for trouble and doing what most teenagers do. Thry are surrounded by violence and chaotic occurences. Q sees a friend Blizzard rob a diner(with EPMD in it)and later reveals he was shot by police, and the Wreckin Crew is harassed by a rival gang led by Radimez, a Latin thug who at one point threatens Bishop. Q tries to get a spot on a DJ tournament unaware that his crew is planning to rob a convenience store. As soon as they get the money, Bishop deliberately kills the clerk. Two minutes later, Bishop kills Raheem. Obviously, Bishop has LOST HIS MIND and it is up to Q, who is the only person who knows the truth, to defend himself against one of the most psychotic and brilliantly menacing villains in the entire history of cinema! The most amazing scene is a part where 2pac is playing a video game in a bar and somehow breaks the arcade game. The close-up of his eyes shows what kind person Bishop has turned into. The bartender says "Man, what you do to my machine". One of my ten favorite films of ALL TIME!

All that needs to be said- This is 2pac the "actor" at his best.
