Powerdvd 15 review1/4/2024 There is no need for them to explain the whole damn movie to me - I've just watched it and even if I hadn't, I wouldn't want to know so many spoilers - and expecting anything more deep than a face-value explanation of the story is too much to ask for in the short duration.īringing the 'Hood to Life is an eight-minute look at shooting this prequel, talking about the original movie, the fact that they got to shoot in Harlem and the basis in reality that the story has. Unfortunately this short featurette is simply packed full of footage from the final film itself, padding it out and making it seem slightly too promotional. Jaclyn DeSantis (Leticia) pops up to talk about the boundaries within New York back in those days and we get plenty of b-roll footage and other cast and crew interviews. Got Your Back: Carlito's Brothers in Crime is a six-minute look behind the scenes at this Carlito's Way prequel. Most of the mistakes are line-fluffs or actors who are unprofessionally unable to keep a straight face, but there are a couple of nice extra moments with Luis Guzman (in scenes that were neither in the final film nor included in the deleted scenes) improvising excellently. The Gag Reel is six minutes long and comes across as slightly incongruous with the feel of the movie (I am not entirely sure they should have included it). None of them really needed to be in the movie, but for a production like this they should have probably been left it (that is, apart from all the scenes involving Hollywood Nicky). First up we get seven minutes of deleted scenes, with more of the black and white credits footage (which sets the scene and has another actor playing an even younger Carlito), more of the gang in jail from the beginning of the movie, too much extra footage of Hollywood Nicky being a supercilious idiot and a little bit more of the lovely Leticia, a brief addition to Carlito's monologue musings and more from the hard-nosed cops who are on his tail. For a direct-to-DVD release, there are a fair few of interesting extras to complement the main movie.
