Nasty Boys Audience Reviews

Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

jmrmpd That's right, High Mountain Rangers sucked! It sucked Big TIME!!! And I don't mean Maybe!!!!! Robert Conrad basically couldn't act, for some silly reason, and neither could his sons! The only reason to watch this show was Robin, the hot looking Swedish Babe with blonde hair and blue eyes... After her, there wasn't much but the stupid dialog, and bad acting... That was only the first season. In the second season, Robin left the show, and so did the majority of the audience... Conrad should have stuck to acting... Oh, yes... Back to the Nasty Boys. It was PC claptrap. Craptrap, too, due to the Politically Correct movement back then...
SquirePM These people went absolutely the whole Hollywood hog. It was almost, but not quite, laughable. They strained to be oh, so hip and oh, so cool. The dialog was ludicrous, seeded deliberately with "cool" lines that sounded phony and were often not even appropriate to whatever action was on screen.But wait, there's more. They preached PC! The writers adopted Politically Correct causes and wrote scripts around them! You almost wanted to puke. In one episode, the only one I could make myself watch all the way through, the cool, hip Nasty Boys got nasty on some illegal gun runners. At the end they swooped down on the bad guys, caught them red handed doing the deal (without a shot fired, of course; can't show anybody getting hurt) and when everyone had surrendered they said something like, "All right you guys, get out of here and don't you ever do anything like this again. It's a good thing we got here in time. Now we can get these guns off the street." They arrested the guns and let all the criminals go!It was a classic, all right, a shining example of Hollywood PC claptrap.
sunnwoo This show had a good cast; Dennis Franz and Benjamin Bratt, but it didn't last very long. It was bit stereotypical: the asian cop owned a martial arts dojo, colombians were drug pushers, african-americans were crack addicts, etc. However, it had great story lines, good character development, and great action sequences. The producer of this show, Dick Wolf, later added Benjamin Bratt to another of his long running vehicles, Law & Order. It just wasn't given enough time to develop.
