1* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Diquan's actions in the end of the film are rather questionable. He tips off [=McRae=] about [[spoiler:the murder that Chucky committed in the beginning of the film, instead saying he did it.]] However, [=McRae=] is actually looking into [[spoiler:the murder of the young girl in the deli, which Bamboo committed]]. Diquan [[spoiler:gets sentenced for this]], but it's unclear why he did it. Was he [[spoiler:trying to avoid snitching on Bamboo in fear of him getting out again and coming after him and/or his family, or was he trying to avoid Bamboo period by going to jail, since Bamboo is presumably still on the streets, not being noticed by the police who showed up to arrest Diquan?]] Alternatively, was he trying to [[spoiler:cover for Chucky, who probably would've been linked to the murder of the boy he fought with, and of whom he took the murder weapon from]]? Perhaps he was trying to do all three?
2* {{Anvilicious}}: This film's [[Film/DontBeAMenaceToSouthCentralWhileDrinkingYourJuiceInTheHood MESSAGE!]]s are about as subtle as the gunshots given to several of the film's characters.
