Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I really don't know what to say. I can start with telling you that I have seen it 3 times... that is actually 4 times to many.. but it gets better every time.The thought that gets me through the film is that: "He was serious when he made it". If I hadn't known that I would'a compared it to snakes on a plane. Not good, but they didn't try that hard. But, sadly thats not the deal here. This is crap from A to Z.. and I love it!In the background you can hear Ice-T. I'll bet you they have just put his record on replay and let it spin until the end of the movie.. NO cutting what so ever.But still, a film you SHOULD see.. I ordered it from the US to Norway because it was so poorly made the I first saw it... And I had to check if it was true.. it was.Horrible filming, writing, music, acting, cutting, editing and everything. But still.. I'll give it a 8!

(PS - this an IRONIC review)I found this in the bargain bucket of a Liverpool city centre store, and couldn't resist spending a measly quid on it.There is no discernible plot to it, The "acting" is laughable and the relentlessly epileptic editing style is straight out of an 80's "Yo MTV Raps" programme.Yet.......Watch it with a group of "inebriated" friends and you will be blown away......The monologues are way better than anything Tarantino has penned (check the QUOTES section) and the level of awfulness on display is awesome!!!It's the kind of film that most people will use as a place-mat on their coffee table, which the director and cast would probably take as a compliment!!As unintentional comedies go, this takes some topping........It'll be interesting many years from now to see whether Snoop & Ice-T leave this one one their respective film CV's...........

This is a high speed thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat till' the end. Ice T leads a corrupted police force bent on the eradication of the local street gangs. However, when the bosses of the three biggest gangs are snatched together in one of Ice T's traps, they realize that only teamwork will get them trough the day. Even though the cover clearly states that this movie stars Snoop Dogg as well as Ice T, but Snoop however never appears as a character that has anything to do with the plot. They show a clip from one of his videos, but I don't think that counts for much. But that is just a funny surprise from the director. "You sure got us there Mr. Director". Other featured actors are lesser known(except for Ice T of course!) However they were able to match Ice's fine acting. Who could forget smooth and suspenseful lines such as "Juda, you are a slimy bitch". Brilliant acting combined with an amazing musical score make this one of the best action/drama films of the year. This one is a must see!!!

From the terrible acting to the wanna-be "stylish" filming style, this movie sucked! I have seen all of Ice-T's movies, and overall it is hit or miss, this movie shouldn't even be called a movie. It was more like a long, boring rap video with no plot.
