Entertainment Reviews:
The filmmaking is more expansive...utilizing every flashy lighting technique and camera trick at the crew’s disposal for a film that’s lots of fun when the champagne bottles are popping and the $100 bills are floating down from the balcony like confetti.

Rating: 2.5/5 --
The whole thing plays like a fancy dress parody of a crime movie, except nobody seems to be having much fun.

The super heroic version of this tale mythologizes Youngblood Priest in a new era of chaos in which threats to the black community are more amorphous and multi-faceted than they used to be.

Director X...can't seem to differentiate between the strip-club aesthetics of a rap video and the demands of a full-length feature film.

The new Superfly seems...like an embarrassing throwback.

SUPERFLY works best when it’s attempting to bring elements of the original film up to date. Director X and Tse accomplish this with some very amusing in-jokes and timely commentary.

Rating: 3/5 --
It's definitely slick and stylish, directed by noted music video auteur Director X from a script by Alex Tse, but it lacks some of the soul that made the original film so engaging and fun.
