Before I Self Destruct (2009)

Before I Self Destruct (2009)

While technically terrible with the lackluster acting (though I found Curtis Jackson to be good), amateur camera work and clichéd story Before I Self Destruct had its moments and ended up being an enjoyable Netflix watch for me. Part of the reason being that Clarence played by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson was such a likable characters that besides all of his...

When we saw the trailer to Machete during the introduction of...
