Review of Squeeze

Squeeze (1997)
1/10
A very stupid movie that feels like a hilariously
26 May 2024
Stupid attempt to recreate "I'm playing hard to get" by Hi-Five. It's hilarious how this movie also portrays the nonsense of "bro" being black slang, when it's Latin slang. And the Hispanic guy keeps saying "brother" left and right. This is the kind of nonsense that would have aired on The WB, Tribune. And on their stations such as WPIX. This movie is just annoying. The whole movie just manipulates your feelings and insults the intelligence. Narm is not a bad thing if the movie is actually funny or even stupid but still intelligent on facts ("Lethal Weapon," many episodes of "Voyager," and "Fresh"). But no this movie is just dumb. Another thing stupid about this movie is the main character. There is one scene where his leader shoots an enemy rival. He does a rant (which to me is not as good as Jake's in the basketball court scene in "Fresh," and I'm not gonna be explicit as to which one cause there's many rants in that scene) and during the scene where Tyson, whose part of a crew that's stupidly named (PG-13 crew really? Couldn't be hard R-rated crew?), runs and the thoughts of people he has heard say nasty things, those nasty things torment his mind ("f--k with my s--t" the guy says). And he is so servile in this movie. There comes a time in a man's life when fear has happened enough and it's time to take action. Fresh is an example of this. Like this movie is supposed to make you scared of it, but it just got me mad. If this was Michael from "Fresh" this would be a far more scarier than thrilling movie, and I would take the place of their boss in the movie. And that good kid like Michael would be my rival.
