When a movie is filled with positive quotes, the creators have me in their pockets. This is why I am in love with the movie, "The Dirty 3rd: Next Generation"

Zaire started this movie with this quote
"A wise person once told me that life is a journey. Every decision you make has a consequence that affects everyone and everything around you. Cause on that journey you never know where you will end up. Don't know what path you have to take. Don't know you'll meet. Who you can trust. Or who really got your back. But the scariest part about it all, you never know how it's gonna end. " Source
Every line makes a lot of sense because it's reality and we have always seen the consequences of decisions that we make and how it changes everything moving forward. Again, in life, we do not truly know whom to trust, because no one can't tell the other party's true intentions.
In this movie, Zaire finds himself having to protect his mum from the law because she took the blame for him after he gunned down his Stepdad for beating up his mom. He had instances when he had to tell other grown-ups that the world revolved around him and his mum and he has to do what he has to do to take care of them both. He doesn't trust anyone but he came to love and respect his dad and granddad although they've never been in touch since he was young because Zaire's mum cut them out.
After his family, Zaire had one person that meant a lot to him. It was the 16-year-old boy named, Pocchie. The boy had been like a little brother to him and always had his back. Poochie gave Zaire an introduction to the, "who is who" in the street, and it helped Zaire's drug dealing business and money-moving mechanism smooth and easy. Zaire couldn't help trusting Poochie, and putting him on as one of his homies. Apart from this, Zaire met Poochie's sister, fell in love, and began to date her. So, Pocchie was automatically family.
On this same drug-dealing and money-making street, there was a different hustler, named Quick who thought he owned the street and could do whatever he wanted. He broke the rules of the drug dealing business by taking shots and pints out of the drinks he was given to sell, he disrespected the numerous girls he dated including, Poochie's sister whom he dated in the past.
Things took a different turn when Poochie was murdered by a businessman, Quick robbed who apparently thought, Poochie was Quick's brother. Quick had taken his business to Poochie's house when no one was home, the man assumed everyone he saw on the family photo album was Quick's family. When he discovered, Quick duped him, he went to Poochie's house to settle the score.
Upon Poochie's dead, Zaire is enraged and wants revenge, but his grandfather, Street, the Business Mogul and Drug Kingpin, advises him to control his emotions and learn the ways of his enemy. Zaire took this advice when Quick almost ended the life of his Uncle, Sonny Bobo, who is the leader of the drug selling ring and has always looked after Zaire especially when there's a break out between Zaire and Quick.
I love this movie. I am sure I'll watch it again and again. I love the different scenes that had quotes and solid street advice. The most tripping part was how cryptocurrency was introduced as a money-moving mechanism, and Zaire mentioned it's easy to make money than to move money especially when Law Enforcement will be on their butts. Poochie, introduced Zaire to a boy, he called, Crypto, and he helped them secure the bag by using Coinbase to invest their money while he gets 2%.
Sonny Bobo is a larger part of this movie even though Street is the original Kingpin. The 3rd Generation is Zaire according to the name of the movie. Sonny Bobo who came out of prison at the same time Zaire was making his way to Huston to meet his grandfather after he pulled the trigger on his stepfather, and Zaire's dad who is serving time in prison are considered 2nd generation. And Street is the first-generation Drug Kingpin and Business Mogul.
I give this movie a 5-star rating, it was worth every minute of the 1 hour 46 minutes 41 seconds. It took reality on and worked the ropes to perfection. The euphoria of making tons of money in a drug business, and the dangerous thin-line between living and dying. I indulge you to see it soon.
Thanks for Reading.
