Four Brothers

Man, the trailers for this film just did not do the actual movie justice. It was made out to be this tongue-in-cheek ghetto film about a bunch of hood rats who want revenge for their adoptive mom's death. They didn't even show that the villain was Chiwetel Ejiofor, who played The Operative in Serenity! Well, when you watch the film you can't help but laugh at the piss poor marketing of this extremely entertaining and well made/acted flick. It has everything you could want in a movie: action, drama, comedy, gangsters, that funny ass Outkast dude and a crazy hot Latina chick. This was a pleasant surprise and I'll be purchasing the DVD in the near future.
