Third World Cop

In this well paced, down-to-earth film, we are introduced to "Capone," a tough "shoot-first, ask questions later" cop.

After a transfer back to his old neighborhood in "Dungle," one of the poverty-stricken tenements of Kingston, Jamaica, he uncovers a burgeoning gun running operation headed by the local Don, "Wonie".

Capone is a force to be reckoned with - one doubts he will encounter many problems -until he finds out that one of the Don's main men (Ratty) is the young brother of Capone's best friend from his youth.

The film captures some of the spirit of "The Harder They Come" in an updated fashion. The story remains tragic but is well complemented by true-to-life characters and a healthy dose of comic relief.

Subtitles could use work - there are times when you can understand the patois that they use subtitles. Other times dialogue is incomprehensible and no subtitles are used.

All in all a good job at portraying an all too common story in the tenements and "yards" of Jamaica. If you read "Born fi' Dead" and enjoyed it you will also enjoy this film.

It's a unique movie. Two best friends find themselves on opposites sides of the law. The basic story and structure is great, where it falters is the dialogue. It isn't that I couldn't understand it. It just had such awful lines like, "I'm sending you home guilty as charged" or "Not Nice, pay the price." The crew filmed this movie in Digital Video to save on the budget but that doesn't ever take away from the movie. A worthy rental or addition to your library.

This was a good movie, Story line put together well. Paul Campbell was amazing, I just felt something was missing. Good movie overall and great to watch.

In his first full length movie Ali G has done wonderfully well. He has managed to transpose his everyday life from back home in Staines to the ghetto of Jamaca man.

The acting is first class. Capone is all class he reminds me of a young Clint Eastwood in this flick. Let me tell you his career is going to skyrocket (remember you heard it first here!).

The plot is intriguing and complicated -to complicated to describe here, but let me just say there is a lot of shooting!

I reccomend anybody who enjoyed this film should see "Pay It Forward" or "The Importance of being Ernest".

this is nick. signing off. untill next time. stay cool you batty boys.

Loved the plot and acting in this movie. Even though it's low budget everyone made it work and played their part.
