Set It Off	comment	A 1996 crime drama movie directed by F. Gary Gray. It stars Jada Pinkett, Vivica A. Fox, Queen Latifah, Kimberly Elise, and Blair Underwood.Frankie Sutton (Vivica A. Fox) is an ordinary bank teller who is unfortunate enough to be behind the desk on the day that a group of bank robbers hit her place of work. The robbery goes wrong, with several people, including one of the robbers, ending up dead. To make her day even worse, the bank fires her for an arbitrary "breach of protocol" after the police reveal that she knew one of the robbers in front of her boss. With no job, no money, and her life spiralling out of control, she joins her friends Cleo (Latifah), Stony (Pinkett), and T.T. (Elise) working meager, minimum wage jobs as janitors under their foul-mouthed, abusive boss Luther. After Stony's brother Stevie is gunned down and T.T.'s son is taken by the CPS after suffering an accident at her job, Frankie comes up with a plan to get them the finances they need to survive—by taking it from her former employers.Their first robbery goes off without a hitch, and the women find themselves with more cash than they possibly could have imagined. Unfortunately, their ill-gotten gains threaten to cause a rift between the friends, as some are worried about the consequences of becoming criminals, while others are driven by greed to hit more banks. Not making things any easier is LAPD Detective Strode (John C. McGinley), who is determined to put a stop to this new group of would-be fugitives and end their crime spree before it begins.Tropes:

TT's son is removed and taken into care by the state after he suffers an accident when she brings him to work because she cannot afford childcare for him.

And had the SWAT Team holding Stony's brother at gunpoint actually taken a moment to identify what he was pulling out of his jacket, the confrontation would not have ended in his death and given Stony a motivation to throw her dice in with the original robbery plan.

Set It Off / int_f1919d5b	type	Being Evil Sucks
Set It Off / int_f1919d5b	comment	Being Evil Sucks: Most of the gang who take part in the opening bank robbery get killed. The girls never have a chance to benefit from their robberies. The proceeds of their second robbery are stolen before they can spend it, and rather than cutting their losses and just laying low until their trail goes cold, they end up killing the guy who took it before he can tell them where he stashed it and executing a third robbery soon after, with the police already dangerously close to catching them for the murder and the prior robberies. Finally, all but Stoney are killed before they can enjoy their final score.

Set It Off / int_f34a4c1e	type	Lower-Class Lout
Set It Off / int_f34a4c1e	comment	Lower-Class Lout: Several examples. One is Lorenz and Darnell, obviously, who are seen robbing the bank that Frankie works at. Another is Lorenz's girlfriend, Tamika. She has no known occupation, but is clearly able to get her hair and nails done. Tamika is also the one who shaves the letters A.P.(for Acorn Projects) in the back of Stevie's head,despite the latter not being from said projects. Also,this was per Lorenz's suggestion, and could have been done to get the police off his own back. Also Luther, the girls' employer. Despite owning a janitorial company, he doesn't look very wealthy. That is, until he finds the money from the girls' bank robberies and steals it. Plus, Luther is NOT a nice person.

Set It Off / int_fb3576b2	comment	The Dog Bites Back: The security guard that shoots T.T. is the same security guard that T.T. held at gunpoint during the second bank robbery. Turns out he had a vendetta against her... of course, this ends up getting him gunned down by Cleo and Stony immediately afterwards.
