    A movie from some alternate realm of idiocy

    This movie could not have been made in more than three days. And by that I mean everything, from the scriptwriting to the filming, to the editing. There truly is no discernible plot to this; the idea seems to be that people would go see it just because of the all-star cast of rappers. Want a master class in brain-dead, pointless dialogue? Look no further. Same goes for those looking to decrease their acting skills. Finding out that this movie is 75 minutes long was a shock; while watching it, it felt as if it were as long as Titanic or Gone with the Wind. As a side note, I don't think Big Pun or Fat Joe stand up once during the whole movie; must have been in their contract or something. Too horrible to even be funny.

    Beyond the Worst

    To call this a movie is giving it much more credit than it deserves. I was given this movie to watch by someone who had not seen it (lucky them). I tried for at least 20 seconds to watch it, then decided to fast forward it and stop when something looked interesting - I challenge anyone to do this - no matter where you stop it will be the worst thing you've ever seen. I am amazed it made it to video - I know it never was seen in a theater because the audience would have burned down the place in protest for their money back. Now all I can do is talk about the fact that I know what the worst movie ever made is. I don't think anyone can actually watch this movie from beginning to end unless they are paid a lot of money or, they are on heavy drugs and as a result can not move to turn off the TV or unable to use the remote control. Is there a minus rating!? Here is the best reason for having that possibility. Hate someone - give them this movie as a gift from an anonymous admirer.

    oh man oh man oh man

    My god what a waste of time. If my friends weren't trying to work through the bottom 100 movies there is no way I would have watched more than five minutes.

    Beyond the bad special effects, the poor sound, the horrible script, the bad acting, and the lack of directing, this movie would still be the worst movie ever. At least in horror movies there is funny stuff happening (see "Food of the Gods, part II").

    The highlight is Big Pun trying to talk since he is so damn fat he mostly just mumbles and wheezes so bad you can't tell what he is saying. Let me summarize the plot -- Snoop dog was a preacher burned in a church fire, he comes back from the dead a year later and kills a drug lord once a month thereafter.

    Wow, unless you are doing a bad movie challenge stay as far away from this as possible.

    Vote now to get it in the bottom 100

    I disagree with some of the other comments that the film isn't so bad it's funny, I thought this was so bad it was hilarious! Watching Big Pun wearing a Big Pun T shirt and mumbling along reading his lines from a board - I could barely stop laughing through the whole thing. Luckily the final (brutal) cut makes the movie just under an hour. Watch it if you get the chance.

    1/10 for acting, directing, story

    10/10 for the mumbling fat man

    Register your vote, this deserves a bottom 100 place. Just confirms that rappers and movies generally don't mix well!
