Beyond Justice

Which doesn't really save the movie or make it really that much better, I'm just stating the obvious I reckon. But it was nice seeing some of them. Mischa Barton might have fallen from Grace (and OC) a long time ago, but others make good contributions to movies from time to time. Giving Danny Trejo a machete to wield in this, might be a neat trick, but doesn't really help too.

Actually some might feel offended by him (or his character for that matter) doing that. It's just a movie, but you can't capture magic (or machetes) in a bottle like this. The movie is predictable as could be expected and there is a very good looking dark haired beauty in this, if you care about such a thing. It might be the only thing to get excited about in this movie ...

The better and original titled Throwdown, almost serves as an noun for what you'd really like to do, if hiring or buying the DVD. Welcome to a new low in camerawork. Your eyes will be shifting manifold The film does have a decent lead, and a great story and situations of characters, but so sadly suffers, as you experience stylistic B grade . It sort of feels like a City Lights production, with the humming in the background. The baddies are bad, no more so than Danny Trejo as a child pedalling pimp. What were you thinking, signing on for this. One scene with him, again brandishing his machete, is sickeningly abhorrent, it really wasn't warranted or appreciated. Jones is strong as a mob boss, who pushes our cool lead and defendant of scummy criminals into a corner, he may not be able to get out of, but the less said about the great situation and plot, the better (anti spoiler). A nice vaguely optimistic note in it's ending too. Still worth a watch, yes, but before of the camera handling, where a 4 year old could probably do better. 2.5/10.

Review: This film was awful. After getting over how cheap the movie looked, and the terrible soundtrack, I was hoping that the storyline was going to be half interesting but that was a disappointment as well. As usual, Vinnie Jones is playing the thug who wants to revenge the murder of his son so he asks a lawyer to try his best to release the accused murderer so he can take his own revenge. With the help of the accused sister, they find out that her brother actually didn't kill Vinnie s son and that he was protecting his lover, who was Vinnies son's girlfriend, so they plot to take down Vinnie and his crooked bunch. They also get the help from Luke Goss (from Bros) whose an private investigator with a drinking habit but he isn't really in the film that much. Anyway, the acting was really bad, especially from the leading actor, played by Timothy Woodward Jr., who also directed the movie. The storyline was straight forward but the director made a mess of it. At the end of the day, it's just another low budget movie from Trejo and Jones which should have gone straight to VHS except for DVD. Rubbish!

Round-Up: I would love to know whose funding these awful movies because they must have money to burn. I wasn't expecting that much from the film because of the cast and the fact that the advert looked cheap but I thought that I would give it a go, which was a bad mistake. Trejo is waving his machete around like a mad man, as usual and Vinnie Jones is playing the usual cockney hard man, which we have seen many times before. Anyway, the movie was a total waste of time and money and I really can't find anything positive to say about this cheap attempt at a gangster movie.

I recommend this movie to people who are into their cheap thriller/drama movies about a lawyer who has to release a prisoner so a gangster can revenge his brothers death. 1/10

Vinnie Jones goes beyond justice, beyond the pale and beyond the line of credulity in this bargain basement revenge stinker. Vinnie plays a father of no fixed accent who wants the kind of justices that real geezas mete out to bad slags who muck about wiv little kiddies. He is aided in his plot for mockney revenge by C movie staple Danny Trejo. His nemesis is half of Bros who wants to give 'im a right hander across the coupon, but Vinnie is aint 'aving none of it. Vinnie makes threats in his mota in his gaff and down the old rub a dub in a low budget straight to DVD stinker soon to be filling up the dump bins at Walmart. If you enjoy seeing eighties footballers 'act' with eighties boybands then this is the thing for you. However, if you have an IQ of 80 or higher you may find this twaddle insulting to your intelligence.

I ONLY checked this out because I'm a big fan of Danny Trejo but his character was horrible here & the crappy beyond cheap film looked like it was filmed with a cheap camcorder!!!!

Absolutely nothing good about this poor trash.
