[2.5]--"Make the money, don't let it make you.".......2007-02-16
When this movie first came out I thought it was a good flick but when I recently watched it again I wonder why. First-time director Ice Cube makes some pretty bad decisions in this movie, mainly in that his movie is dreadfully dull. You may wonder how a low-rent black version of "Showgirls" could be dull, but then you've yet to see "The Players Club." Personally this movie could have been made over twenty years ago starring Pam Grier. It's like that. Apparently, it's perfectly OK to perpetuate and even celebrate cuttingly negative stereotypes, but only if you belong to the minority you're exploiting.
In here we have Good girl Diana, played by Lisa Raye, who just wants to make enough money to finish college and do right by her baby. So she starts stripping at some sleazy dive. Much to her surprise, not everyone who works (or hangs out) at a strip club is very nice. The slimy owner of the club is played by Bernie Mac, whose back then performance is notable solely and not that funny because during that time Bernie's been great in small roles in his previous films. (Think of him in Friday or as Uncle Vester in House Party 3.) Bernie gets a subplot all to himself! He's a cheap and corrupt individual, so the local mob boss wants him dead.
For some reason, 2 Live Crew shows up at one point, acting like a band that's had a hit record in the past ten years. They must have stopped by to pick up a cup of ice and was invited to be in the movie. To be even a little fair, Jamie Foxx is pretty likeable as the club's DJ, and he gets to work some stand-up type material into his scenes.
The Players Club is a slow-moving and completely unoriginal movie. While some entertainment value could still be gained from a movie like that, no such luck here. You'll know every single plot point before it arrives, and when it gets there it's delivered in a bored fashion.
AWESOME MOVIE..........2005-12-23
I hate strippers, I hate clubs, but this movie was awesome...if you haven't seen it get it!
Buy to look at Lisa Raye!.......2005-11-22
Yo buy the dvd to look at Lisa Rayes fine body.it would have you drooling all day.Whoo.
Great buy from a great buyer.......2005-09-27
DVD is in perfect condition. Will by from this buyer again!
Entertaining drama.......2005-09-18
I don't know why, but I've always liked this film. Yes it's crass and everything that guy said, but it still doesn't fail to entertain. I'm white, sorry.. and bisexual (not sorry for that though hehe) but this is still one of my favorite films, mainly for the beautiful women, good acting, and the different characters. Diamond is beautiful and sexy, but tough and classy, and also smart about what she decides to do and not do. Ronnie is a complicated character because sometimes she is helpful and you almost want to like her, but other times she is lying, coniving, and betrays people who trust her. I think the reason why ice cube "kept it real" is mainly because he is a rapper and because of his image. He played kind of a thug up to no good. What did you think he would play a cop or something? I also really enjoyed the police spanking scene, that was hysterically funny. Another one of my favorite scenes, is when diamond first dances, and the other is when ronnie stands up after ebony gets off her lap and she has on a red cowgirl hat and thong, and as she walks away you see how nice her body is, and how nice her a** is, as well as how tall she is. And i loved her blond hairdo's. Too bad she was one of the crazy strippers that ends up getting her a** whoooped by diamond in the end. Another great scene. Which is why i never understood the term catfight because girls can be great fighters, i've seen some pretty brutal and vicious fights involving girls where fists are involved and broken noses, no nail scratching like most guys think. I once saw a fight between two new york girls outside a club, and the girl's head was being slammed into the cement over and over like a ragdoll. I didnt think a head could handle that much trama. The term catfight, is merely a sexist and stereotypical made up word by men. But anyways, this movie is entertaining, and i never get tired of it. This may be a guy movie mostly, but i'm a woman, and i like it!
Customer Reviews:
Not for the Beginner..........2007-03-27
I bought this for my [...]based on all the great reviews and discovered that it is for intermediate to advanced players. The drill discussions are super short and fast and way too advanced for beginners with little or no instruction or footage on technigues.
I was disappointed and am looking for a thorough dvd that discusses and shows the fundamentals. If you start wrong, you finish poorly. Fundamental techniques should be the starting point for beginning soccer players.
The Soccer Buddy You'll Ever Get!.......2004-07-12
This DVD has soccer drills coming at you like a hard hit corner kick. The format is excellent with good explanations and very well paced. Professionally edited, worthwhile soccer drills and skills galore make this a must for any soccer coach or parent's DVD library.
Recommended For League Presidents.......2004-07-12
As president of our soccer league, I have recommended "Championship Soccer Drills" to all my teams (coaches) on the recreational and traveling team level. The video has numerous meaningful drills and tips. Many of the drills can be adapted and even changed to fit the level of play. The recreational teams will be able to use almost all of the drills. More competitive type travel teams will use many of the drills as they are, but might need to increase some of the challenges in these drills.
This is one of the better instructional soccer videos/DVD's I have seen. The presentation is clear. The techniques are very good. The flow of the video is the best part with "little talk" and "more action". Most leagues should have a video like this in their library for coaches. This is a must buy!!!
Soccer Instruction At It Best!!!!.......2004-05-10
This soccer instructional video/DVD is one of the best things I have seen in a long time. Quite appropriate for indiviual or team players ages 7-14. The pace of the video is very fast yet it gets many points across well. The team used in the video is obviously a highly talented team that was needed to show the many drills done right. It is still Two thumbs, and eight fingers up! Well done, very very well done!

Best video on Little League Baseball.......2007-07-17
I`ve played Baseball Umpired Baseball Managed and Coached Baseball since I was 5 years old--These videos made me feel how little I knew about the game.There are no pros here telling you how to play,Marty is like you and I he looks like our neighbor who really knows what he`s talking about. His kids that do the drills look like our kids we teach.I`ve learned a lot from these videos and use these over and over with my team.If you see any instructional videos with Marty Schupak name on it buy it you and your team will benifit from it greatly!!!
59 Minute Baseball Practice DVD Helped Us Immediately.......2006-09-26
This review is written by me and my 8 year old son who watched this video with me. It teaches you how to focus on small steps that synergistically work together to form overall skill set improvement. It shows practical things you can do with a team AND things a Dad can do in the backyard with his son or daughter. We went outside and applied several things to our backyard practice immediately.
My son liked the exercise that shows how to develop confidence in catching flyballs using a squishy baseball so that the fear of getting injured is removed. Skill is developed.
Also the emphasis on how to develop bunting habits was really inspiring.
One exercise on helping a pitcher develop balance is a great idea. we had not seen any of these in our team or other practices.
My son liked the exercise when the kids tried to hit baseball caps on the ground in front of their teammate. The goal of each drill is woven into the explanations. Lots of variety.
This DVD is useful for ages 7 and up.
Some of the drills provide for a friendly competition between two groups of boys on a team. The drill for retrieving an outfield ball, relaying it to an infielder and throwing it home is the best one I've seen on that technique.
I wish this video had more tips for pitching. They have a new video just for that purpose so I guess this doesn't cover that part of the game in depth.
We borrowed this DVD from a teammate. We are going to buy a copy this winter and will try to use every drill on it.
We heartily recommend it to everyone.
