Movies that Cuba Gooding Jr. did not suck in? Anyone? Anyone?
Posted by Monkey 1 in: All NewsFellow homosapiens, I submit to you the following challenge. Reply with your Cuba Gooding Jr. movie(s) that did not make you think that some director somewhere must have lost a bet. Now don't get me wrong, I GET Cuba, I really do. He seems to be a hard worker and is likely a pretty nice guy. But god help me if Snow Dogs isn't the most memorable movie he's done in recent memory. And that was a real...well...dog!
I won't even take away the obvious good ones and let my fellow monkeys post their favorites. Why you ask would after such a long hiatus from my beloved blog would I choose THIS as my first post? Two reasons really;
1. American Gangster. Just watched it again and with the cast and performances in that movie, Cuba couldn't 
help but have some of that positivity rub off on him. This dear reader is my contribution to the list of "Movies that Cuba Godding Jr. Did Not Suck In". That movie really kicked ass.
2. Guilt. Let me be honest. I loved him once. But like Jean Claude van Damme and Steven Segal, I gave him chance after chance in the video store. Dude owes me several hours of my life back! This appeal will hopefully compile a list of fond memories of the Cuba that used to be.
Anyway, jump in. I'm sure Cuba would appreciate it too. 
- This movie set Cuba's career - and that of Sled Dogs everywhere - back decades!
