For those who are looking at this film from today's perspective, you need to realize that back in 1996, California minimum wage was $4.25/hr. So when Cleo(Queen Latifah) was talking about how awesome it would be if they had a wage of $15/hour, that's equivalent to over $49.41/hour today since California's minimum wage right now in 2021 is $14/hour. When she mentions overtime of $22.50/hr, that's equivalent to $74.12/hr today. So Cleo is so spot on about how blessed she would be if she had that wage of $15/hour because if I can get a wage of $49.41/hr full time with overtime of $74.12/hr today, I would be blessed as fuck too.
damn I wish our generation was like the 90s man Smh.!!!! Four home girls just chilling & talking. without drama or fighting!!! #Set It Off will always be a classic film n my heart
I am a white Jewish girl and I grew up in the hood in 1995 and they treated me like one of the home girls. Hell, I was the first to get them stoned. We'd stay up all night and listen to hip-hop and talk about life and there wasn't any drama. I got shit a lot for being the white girl but my girls had my back. I am still friends with them. I'd die for those girls. We still have sesh sessions when the kids are at school. Haha!
I'm glad I was born in 82' I remember watching this at the movies no people looking at their phones during the movie just laughing and relaxing, nowadays it's all you see people sitting at the table or outside just glued to their phone. Nothing will be the same anymore with this generation it's fucked up media and pop culture has taken over people I stay away from it no social media or news just good ol TH-cam and getting out and enjoying everyday like life was supposed to be lived.
❤❤"😮 Real, but I can't say forever. I give it a millennium, 😂😂 cuz I figure that'll get pretty boring after a while, birth rather something that feel like forever is enough ectasy and nostalgia. Dope ol moment, my favorite out the movie and the sweetest one out of the whole thing, cuz they was all alive and well😂😂😂😢😭😭🤡 situated,happy,high and feeling good,chilling and vibing and having fun,with a flock of ectasy, and a pile of soul and passion,kmsl. You feel for the characters and you wish they woulda all got away and lived even if it was just with a few bullets ones and some being in critical condition. Hate they all died except for Stoney. I think easily, this was the best,sweetest,reallest moment in the film. Nothing like living and laughing with ya babies The simple,yet complex and deep,devine sacred things in life.

The cinematography on this film is ahead of its time. the colors,the Hues, looks like a movie that was released in the mid 2000s instead of the mid 90s.
To be honest, this scene alone really makes the movie worth watching as a whole is just so wholesome to see four black female friends , chilling smoking, and have a fun with no drama.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
"Facts, no lie. The BEST scene out the movie. This always was my favorite part, had it on DVD and watched it bookoo of times on tv. Always tried my best to not miss this part,FIRE. Iflife could be like this all the time, no DRAMA,just SLAP BOXING FOR FUN and SHOOTING AT THE GUN RANGE. Instead of all this weak,evil,whack,boring killing. "

My brother passed 8 years ago and for many years I could not watch this movie because this movie, Menace II Society, Friday, etcetera were movies we would watch all the time together and quote. We loved to quote Luther and laugh. I just reached a point where I can watch this and enjoy it about 2 years ago without crying. So nostalgic.
Yeah, Cleo rolling up and smoking up the blunt that I taught myself how to draw with in high school, assuming that it's same weed strain that I taught myself how to draw with!
Qeen Latifah acted her tail off in this movie. The Academy should be able to go back to old classics and give an award cause queen latifah definitely deserves one.
One of MY favorite movies back in my dayz, C/O 97...👊...they went from Getto Fabulous to 2017 girls next door ....Jada and Queen all soft Girly Girly in **Girl Trip**
