      Da Hood Critic G.

      I grew up on Charles Bronson's vigilante movies, but nowadays, these streets ain't playing that! This movie reminded me of Eastwood in 'Gran Torino' with all the off balanced comedy, violence, & racial slurs. Ignorance has no color. Trejo, Perlman, & Dutton are respected actors, but this was not realistic at all. Not so good directing & acting as well. "Da Hood Critic"

      Better than I thought it would be... a reluctant hero is able to change his life. Some silly dialogue and corny scenes, but that only seems to add to the enjoyment of this feel good movie.... South Central style.
