Girlz N The Hood. Stony (Pinkett) gets fired from her bank job, Frankie
(Fox) sees her brother shot, Cleo (Latifah) is out to protect her
sisters, and impress her girlfriend. With Stony’s inside knowledge,
they plan bank jobs to get them out of the poverty cycle. Violent, but not
mindlessly so, these girls could whup not only Thelma and Louise’s ass,
but all the Washingtons, Snipes and Smiths of this world too. Underwood
is typecast as Stony’s preppy love interest, and the movie works best
when it’s girlz together, singing, stomping and shooting off at the
mouth.
