Every year, a few films come out of Sundance with a lot of
hype behind them, and this year Rick Famuyiwa’s Dope is one
that caused a ruckus in Park City. The story of ‘90s hip hop obsessed nerds who
play in a punk band trying to make it through daily life in the hood looks
hilarious and heartfelt and like a total blast. Check out the new trailer
below.
This gives you a way better feel for the what the actual
movie entails than the last trailer, like you actually meet the characters and
learn about the story. I already wanted to check this out based on the early
reviews and the descriptions, but this footage drives home that this is going
to be something super fun that we haven’t seen before.
Here’s a synopsis:
In Dope, Malcolm (Shameik Moore) is carefully surviving life in a tough neighborhood in Los Angeles while juggling college applications, academic interviews, and the SAT. A chance invitation to an underground party leads him into an adventure that could allow him to go from being a geek, to being dope, to ultimately being himself.
Dope hits movie theaters on June 19.
