Four Harlem friends -- Bishop (Tupac Shakur), Q (Omar Epps), Steel (Jermaine Hopkins) and Raheem (Khalil Kain) -- dabble in petty crime, but they decide to go big by knocking off a convenience store. Bishop, the magnetic leader of the group, has the gun. But Q has different aspirations. He wants to be a DJ and happens to have a gig the night of the robbery. Unfortunately for him, Bishop isn't willing to take no for answer in a game where everything's for keeps. With Samuel L. Jackson, Queen Latifah.

"'Juice' adapts the DJ-struggling-to- make-it scenario to put across a message of inner-city hopelessness...the most interesting elements are the all too brief glimpses of family life and the boys' own relationships." (Sight & Sound)

"Mr. Dickerson, whose cinematography has been the reason Spike Lee's films look so good, has a terrific eye and some juice of his own." (New York Times)
