Judgment Day

Bad acting + bad direction + a mish-mosh of a plot adds up to one terrible movie. I was lucky to have caught it on Hulu, because I'd be really upset if I'd paid to watch this dreck.

Don't waste your time.

The opening of the movie is so illogical that it may actually explain why wrong thinking is so prevalent. Ice-T makes a good point: Do poor communities (of any race) build guns, or grow poppy plants (the basics of hard drugs)? Of course not. Ice-T then makes a bad point: He blames the white man. What? I grew up in the slums of NYC until I left at age 17 and never looked back. Our neighborhood was a mix of blacks and Puerto Ricans. Many times, as a teen, I had to step over drug addicts and bums who camped overnight on the inner steps to the 3 story building. Sometimes, I saw needles dangling down an arm. HERE is the false logic: NO one FORCED us to take drugs or murder others. And, the only way drugs become popular is if there are buying customers. No blacks or whites are FORCED to buy or to use drugs. No one is forced to pull a trigger without a legal reason. So, because the initial logic is false, the rest of the movie fails. You cannot build a home upon lies, or a good movie upon bad logic.

Decent script, relevant ideological warning of well armed lunatics posing as 'End of Times' self-dubbed 'Chosen Ones'... Not a terrible cast.

Clearly terrible acting to weave gun panti relevance in implausible situations and ridiculous shootouts not necessary to the story at all.

Another Brink In The Wall to normalize gun violence, it is fully gratuitous to the script, added by mentally lazy imbeciles.

But probably good to watch to get our priorities straight given the chance to turn the page in 2021.

Ice-T stars as a federal prisoner that is doing a deed for the FBI, where a scientist is kidnapped by an extremist group, with Mario Van Peebles as the leader. An asteroid threatens the earth (a la Armageddon), and the top scientist is kidnapped, and hope lies with both Ice-T and Suzy Amis (Titanic) as an FBI agent.

Ice-T might be portraying another stereotypical role as a convict, as well as the villain, like his previous films, but his vulgar overtones might sound like one of his rap songs. Check out a cameo by Coolio as a street hustler, and this film marks the third appearance of Tiny Lister (Trespass, Jackie Brown) with Ice-T.

The scene where Amis cuffs Ice-T to the steering wheel of the car has been repeated several times, in films like Rush Hour. 48 HRS. was the first film to feature such a scene, and every fan of the film might view this scene as homage to a timeless classic.

Why Mario Van Peebles as the black David Koresh? Ice-T might have lynched his ass in this film, since the two first met in New Jack City.

This Direct to video nonsense, features Boring performances, Awful special effects and Laughable screenplay and lots of boring action, surely one of the worst movies since Fair Game Not a good movie to rent.
