Urban Menace Audience Reviews

Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
ebonix I cannot believe how this made it to DVD. I've never turned off a DVD before in my life until I saw this movie, after about 20 minutes, I grew extremely tired of the incompetent acting skills many of the cast seemed to posses.I'm a real die-hard Snoop Dogg fan, which was the only reason I brought the film, so that I could see some of his early work. Unfortunately I was unlucky enough to waste £4 on this very movie.The camera work is the worst I've ever seen, the "special effects" were to the same area of quality and the script is so dis-jointed that it wouldn't entertain a toddler.Do not watch this movie, it is possibly the worst film of all time and should take pride and place at the bottom of the film ratings on IMDb
fresh_ To the best of my knowledge, this is the worst film EVER made. I am not exaggerating, it is not like Showgirls or Virus bad, it is a whole new low. It was only released 'cause Ice T and co. had the money from being successful rappers to finance it itself. I do media and film studies, and we had to make the introduction to a thriller. Compared to this film, every single groups work looked like Usual Suspects or Momento, and it was the first time most of us had used any camera or editing equipment, or had ever storyboarded, written a script, or had any involvement in a film. I'm saying this carefully 'cause I don't want you to think I'm exaggerating how bad it is. The storyline is pitiful and makes no sense at all. The special effects are laughable, and I don't mean that they're low budget but they did what they could with them, they were actually the worst I've ever seen (like pitifully super imposed shots of flames when a building is supposed to be on fire). Instead of choosing actors, they chose rappers to play the parts of characters (snoop dogg himself has since acted well in a few films, but Fat Joe and Big Pun show they're complete and absolute lack of talent, as do the rest of the cast). There is absolutely nothing good about this film. I still feel like I'm not quite stating enough how bad it is, 'cause I've seen so many terrible and laughable films, but this is on a whole new level to anything I have ever seen. I am a big hip hop fan, and therefore have a certain amount of respect for Ice T and a lot of respect for Snoop Dogg, Fat Joe and Big Pun (RIP), but this should never have been made, and if you manage to get hold of a copy i urge you to burn it and therefore erase it from history, so there is no chance of anyone in the future seeing it and knowing that such disgustingly embarrassing things existed in our time.
FunkyMunkey106 This is the worst film I've ever seen. I rented this hoping for one of those "hilariously cr@p movie experiences" (Plan 9, Anaconda, Congo), but this isn't even watchable. Even hip-hop fans should steer clear of this for fear of seeing your favourite stars in a different light - a big, glaring, filtered light making them look as if someone's shining a spotlight on their foreheads.Why's it so bad? The talking vacuum cleaner Fat Joe's heaving bulk; the terrible performances from the other actors; the god-awful lighting and filtering; the boring, BORING, BOOOOOORING story; and about a million other things.In fact, from the looks of "The Wrecking Crew", this was made at the same time, in the same place, with the same crew (same writer, director, assistant director, producers, cinematographer, editor, cameraman... you get the idea), which is just laughable. The 1999 positive comment "[Filmwerks] know their target market and plays incredibly well to it" was surely one of the blurbs rejected for the back of the box for lack of believability. Avoid.
gibajawil bad acting, bad special effects, stupid villains, fake blood i mean too fake come on this is suppost to be a movie at least make it look real!!!!!!!!!! u can tell this movie was made by rappers!!! dumb dumb dumb plain dumb.... after seeing this movie i broke my vcr and i promise myself to never rent this crap again i completely hated it .. i give this trash 0 out of 5 .... bad film terrible film im disgusted snoop dogg u are a good rapper stick to it dont quit your day job......
