This, however, was truly atrocious. Ice-T was dreadful, and he's the producer! Can't say I've ever heard of Silkk The Shocker (who apparently never learnt how to spell), but his performance was one of the worst I've ever seen in a movie.
Miss Jones did pretty well in her small role, though she later went on to make some atrocious, racist "jokes" on her radio show after the SE Asian tsunami (plus other occasions sadly). Way to go, girl...
No-one else comes out with any credit. Strangely, TJ Storm and Ernie Hudson (who are both pretty bad here) are far better in The Wrecking Crew, which was made, along with Urban Menace, at the same time as Corrupt. How that works, I don't know.
I'm going to try the Ice-T commentary now, to see whether he apologises for the film, or tries to make us think it's a great piece of film-making.
Ice-T must've needed money, because this movie was such as waste of time. The camera and lighting was some stuff from the '70s, and the plot (if you could find some inkling of a plot) was not only overused, but stretched to the max...
The characters were stereotypical, two-dimensional idiots trying to be gangsters. Now I have mad respect for Ice-T and Silkk the Shocker, but they could've done a helluva lot better than this. Ice-T has done better than this on "Players" and "Law and Order: SVU." And that was TV!
The only good part? The music. The beats was tight, and though there weren't a lot of tracks, the ones that were in there had your head bobbin', and it made you forget about the deplorable movie that you were watching...
So to wrap it up, don't expect "New Jack City 2" here. Hell, don't even expect a low-grade gangsta flick. This was lower than that...
