Justiceiros da Rua

I just lost 1h20m of my life ! This movie is awful ! I'm not kidding ! The plot is lame ,dialogs are pathetic ,acting is even worst ! Kris Kristofferson (the only real 'actor' in this 'movie' ) plays his part like a rookie . DMX (the star on the cover) appears for 4-5 minutes in the whole movie ,trying to revenge something that the director though it will be insignificant to show us .Special effects are way behind ,looking like some "80's wanna be blockbuster" The movie ends with a scene that wants to be ...i don't know how to say it , "i never wanna see something like this again" ,or "god ,why did i pay for this !!!" But hey ,who knows ,maybe you'll like it ! ( i sincerely doubt it ! ).

This is a movie called " Jump out boys ", but was peddled as a film called " Lords of The Streets. " Watching this film one asks the question, why Kris Kristofferson? Was he just looking for work of any kind? He is a top notched actor and has proved himself in many other films. So why this film? I can only ascertain that the man is unemployed, and has to do something to pay the bills. With very little screen time, one can only watch the movie with patience and regret. The story is that of a Mexican Warlord who has the where-with-all to plan a superb Prison escape and then searches for his girl-friend accomplice who now works as a government informant. Indeed, after the daring escape, which is the best part of the film, the movie is all down hill as the ruthless leader, begins making mistakes everywhere. Kris Kristofferson plays Raymond, an aging New Orleans Officer, who gives his partner 90 percent of the story line and then humbly takes bows. The movie itself is poor, the acting is second rate and the rest of the movie is standard at best. It's far from a great film and one wonders if there is a refund. Except for some selected scenes, the movie is not recommended to anyone save those who are forced to sit through the rest of this second rate movie. **

I took the time to sign up to IMDb solely to express my utter contempt for this waste of film.

I didn't think it was possible to cast the worst actors in the world all in the same movie, but they managed. Terrible acting... sounds like they are reading from the script (for the first time). Not to mention this movie has been done so many times before.

The main character (the black detective who couldn't detect a crime if it fell out of the sky and landed on his face.) actually invoked an emotion in me. Anger... His acting was so terrible it actually made me mad. (Oh yeah, PS.. Take off those unbelievably ridiculous sunglasses.) What a tool.

I give this movie a 1 (since there is no option for 0) I would like that 120 minutes of my life back.

Kris Kristoferson should be ashamed for taking a role in this garbage heap. The acting was horrible on countless levels. Honestly, not one strong performance (including Kris). Not even one "good" performance.

The script was atrocious. The delivery was even worse. The acting quality was about on par with a late night Cinemax soft-core porn flick. The storyline was about as common and cliché as they come and seemed pieced together, disjointed and boring. And to boot, the video quality was very poor. I watched this in HD and it looked more like a VHS-quality movie - very grainy and low budget.

How anyone can say this is a great movie is beyond me. What is wrong with people?

Mexican drug-lord Santiango (Armando Leduc) escapes from prison looking for the 15 million dollars he asked his girl to hold on to for him, but she skipped town. Enter Travis (Ameer Baraka ), a cop, who protects the girl from the evil drug-lord. Travis's partner Ray(Kris Kristofferson) is close to retirement and hopes to enjoy it with his young wife.

Poor New Orleans, first Katrina and now this. There's just too many disasters a town can take. From the heavily clichéd storyline to the horrible acting to the swiss cheese filled movie logic, this film is simply amateur hour and is quite a chore to watch indeed. Only for MAJOR DMX fans (he's not a lead despite getting top billing) all others steer clear of this disaster.

My Grade: D-

DVD Extras: none at all
