This is a real gritty,grimy movie.If you like shoot em up violence this is it.If you dodn't pick up on some of the patois(broken english) there are subtitles to help you understand.K.Marley,Spragga Benz and Louie Rankin'(cats will remember him from Belly)all do a good job as Shottas (Gangsta in Jamaica.Look out for my man Paul Campbell who plays Mad Max,a ruthless almost psychotic killa!! Get Shottas you wont be disappointed.This was almost like a Jamaican version of Belly,but MORE violent.I bought this because I like REALISTIC urban movies.I liked most of this movie,only the boy who played the young Biggs wasnt Jamaican even though he tried with the accent.Young Wayne was realistic and Wyclef was a clown (not in a GOOD way.I rank this up there with Belly and The Harder They Come,but not with classics like Scarface or Goodfellas.Read full review
This was a tuff movie. I enjoyed this movie and I thought that it was well worth the wait for the original version even after watching the movie several times before. It was also cool that the movie included subtitles in English for viewers who do not understand or speak Patois. This movie will probably not be rated as high as "The Harder They Come," but it should be ranked as one of the top Jamaican rude boy films of all time as well as the coming out of artists such as Assassin, Spragga Benz, Kymani Marley, Louie Ranking, who were either already established stars or were on their way to stardom. Finally, this movie would not have been as great if it did not feature the great Louie Ranking himself. He showed that in the shottas world, there are nuff bad man; but also, to every bad man, there are nuff badda man. Man ah man ah bad man....Read full review
