Nice effects though.

It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
TrueHello
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

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.

SET IT OFF WAS A VERY TOUCHING EXCELLENT MOVIE MAN YALL JUST HAS TO MAKE ANOTHER SET IT OFF OMG IT WAS AMAZING MOVIE
Fallen Eye
F. Gary Gray is awesome. There's some simplicity in his directing, but he handles it with expertise. He doesn't bite off more than he can chew, and as a result, his films go down smooth.Set It Off is exactly that, a domino effect, from injustice, to pain, lapse in judgement... then tragedy.The ladies are amazing. The suspense, organic.Criticism may be found in execution perhaps, however, the story itself has motivations and complications that combine so evenly, that the movie just tugs at the right emotions.Set It Off is Off The Hook.A 7.5/10, but I'll happily Round It Off, to 8/10.

This is my favorite movie . It touches me so deep and yet opens my eyes to the ways of this world . I cry every time i see it its so sad and touching . I do not condone violence but i can feel what they must have felt if this were real and i was in a similar situation . I watched it with a friend of mine when it first came out in 96 and ever since then it has been one of my favorite movies definitely in my top 10 . It kept me watching and waiting to see what was gonna happen next . The closeness between the girls was so powerful. this is a movie that any movie fanatic should definitely see especially if you love surprises and dramas . If you love this movie as well as i do post your comments for every one to see so they can enjoy this wonderful movie with great actresses and actors all through out it . Thanks for listening and i hope you enjoy or have enjoyed this movie .

i have watched the movie more than ten times already but i cry every time. some people might think its because I'm a feminist who just love them because they are women , I'm not sure thats not entirely true . you just cant resist feeling sorry for them. I think many people can associate with what they are going through because almost everybody has had one or more raw deals in their lives before.In the beginning i thought Cleo was the "motherly" character( u know what i mean now)but it turns out that Stony actually is.all the raw deals they experienced seemed so next door. they are just the girls next door who would do anything to survive and get by. their families came first especially for T.T and Stony . Look at what Stony did to get his brother the money to go to the best college.typical woman/ mother love. The brother's rejection does not make her love him any less. T.T was to do anything for her baby even if it meant getting involved in the robbery which she was very skeptically about. the love of the woman
