I can't really rate this any higher than a 1 because there is absolutely nothing good about this movie.
Everything from the camera-work to acting to script all feels extremely amateurish, and judging by the film-makers resume they haven't done anything before making this movie, heck there's not even anyone willing to take credits for writing it, I guess they must be that ashamed.
Fat Joe albeit he's not a great 'actor' did pretty good in his small role in EMPIRE (2002) so he was the main reason I decided to watch this, but despite having his name on the poster etc he's only in it for one scene with a screen-time of about 20 seconds.
He plays a character called Big Ed and although Big Ed appears frequently in the movie, Mike Cintron plays Big Ed for the more part of the film hiding under a big hoodie so that I guess us viewers are not supposed to realise that that is in fact not Fat Joe.
But of course we do, despite also being a chubby latino with the same goat tea as Joe has, they act or sound nothing alike.
They try to make sense of all that in the end with a ridiculous plot twist of which I won't go into detail as I don't want to spoil anything but yeah, Fat Joe is only in it for one very brief scene.
I'm guessing that Fat Joe had a fall out or something with the director and he didn't want to do the movie anymore so they had him replaced but still wanted to be able to sell it as a "Fat Joe movie" so they kept the scene they had shot and replaced him for the rest of the movie and came up with a plot twist there and then.
I have no idea who the guy on the poster is but he's not the lead either.
Anyway, it's just a bad bad movie that's not worth your time or your money.
