Ready 2 Die

I was looking for a new crime filled movie (lets admit it gangster flicks are always a blast) when I stumbled across Ready 2 Die. The plot is pretty straight forward with a bank robbery gone wrong as they are trying to get somewhere safe after stealing quite a load of money. Of course the cops are after them as you would expect but to top that off they also have to avoid rival gang members who want the money for themselves. The characters within aren't people you are going to necessarily like but if you love to watch people getting away with (quite literally) murder this is a joyride you aren't going to want to get off of.

The plot is a pretty standard robbery flick with a low budget but but the action really stood out as gritty and fun. Honestly the budget is what hurt this film as if the filmmakers had more to put into the effects I really could see this as something that could stand out. As it is if you are in the mood for some pure violent fun this one would be worth your time!

This film has no redeeming features. The acting, script, music, cinematography, story, direction, editing, lighting, special effects, even the tattoos are rotten. The worst film I've seen in ages. An embarrassment to everyone involved. Excruciating to watch.

I watched this movie with my brother, and because we are both fans of the action genre, we know to be very difficult audience to please. "Ready 2 Die" proved worthy of our Friday evening time.

This is an edge of your seat action-thriller, that hits fast gear with its first scenes and never slows down. I won't reveal much of the plot, the storyline is decent for an action movie, but nothing too special. What makes the movie original is having a feeling like watching a documentary in a dangerous neighborhood of LA.

The characters in "Ready 2 Die" are believable and young crew did a great job acting very well. In addition to their performance, there are three other big elements that make this a cool action flick: good music, incredible gunfight sequences and hot chicks.

I enjoyed this movie and highly recommend it. I give it a 8/10 !

Crime movies about bank robbery's are probably one of my favourite to watch so when I watched the trailer for Ready 2 Die I put it on my to watch list and got a copy the following weekend.

Right from the start I found the action scenes to be exciting a gang of misfits in the process of a bank robbery that goes wrong as a viewer you are put straight into the action but at the same time we start to understand the background of the characters and how this situation evolved.

I can't say to much about what happens next as I don't want to spoil the plot for anyone but you won't be disappointed it has guns, fast cars, police chases, sexy women, money and murder to keep you entertained.

For a low budget film it's put together very well, the actors gave a credible, convincing performance I especially enjoyed Bless May's performance and think he has a good chance of furthering his career if he keeps making decent films. But the biggest credit has to be to the director and writer John Azpilicueta putting together this movie must have been a challenge and he pulled it off I hope he is given some bigger projects in the future and I look forward to watching his next piece of work.

I caught this movie on Netflix the other night and decided to write a review after thinking about it for a few days. I am always interested in films that take place in the hood and the cover caught my eye.

Obviously this is a small budget film and some of the special effects leave something to be desired. However, the actors do a good job in their respective roles. The pacing is a bit uneven and lags at times but overall the action sequences are pretty solid.

I liked the stylized, gritty look of the film it kind of reminds me of the look of "Man On Fire" only on a smaller budget.

Not to give too much of the plot a way, the story is about a group of friends, some ex-military, who decide to rob a bank. The film uses flashbacks to establish the backstory of each character to explain what got them to this point in their lives.

If you are in to "urban gangster" films this one should be in your library.
