Raw Justice

I have to agree with a lot of the comments on this film. To have good character actors such as Robert Hays (Airplane movies), Charles Napier (Rambo II), David Keith (Officer & Gentleman, U-571), and Stacy Keach (too many to list); you would expect better acting. But maybe they were actually making fun on this genre of a movie. The music for some of the scenes was actually comical. The plot of the movie is basic and definitely predictable. The sound effects doesn't always match the scene. Several times you hear the cocking of the hammer of a revolver but you see the gun is not even cocked. And speaking of the revolvers, where did they get those antiques? The main bad guy is the only one who is even using a semi-auto pistol and he can't even hit the side of a barn except in one scene; two shots, two dead. But despite all of the errors and predictability, I actually somewhat enjoyed watching this flick. And of course you had Pamela Anderson for eye candy. This film is from 1995 so she actually looks great (ala Baywatch) and not as she looks today.

Would've loved to be David Keith for this movie. After Pam and he get chased by the baddies they hid out beside a shed. They decided to make a bit of love to pass the time. Soon enough Pam has her top over her head and Keith has his face on her breasts. He licks his way down to her ass. He takes off her short skirt and licks her some more. Then he gets up and does her from behind. Fantastic scene even if the rest of the movie isn't up to much. There's another scene at the end where Pam and the other fella do a bit of riding. Not as good as the first bit but still enjoyable. No doubt Pam makes the movie as good as it is. Must say though that the first scene is one of the best sex scenes i've ever seen.

A action-adventure,crime drama,pseudo-comedy,buddy picture that fails practically at all levels. Robert Hays,whose career had a handful of early successes--the short-lived success of TV's "Angie" and the two wildly funny "Airplane" movies--followed by a long string of films that would elicit blank stares of confusion if mentioned to the average film viewer--"Touched",anyone?--and numerous TV projects that would not last past a year(my fave was the TV treatment of "Starman"),ends up in this flick which really has little going for it except the film debut(?) of Playboy mega-babe and "Baywatch" fixture Pamela Anderson. Her nude/sex scenes along with a very lovingly filmed shower scene with starlet model April Bogenschutz really seem to be all that makes this flick seem watchable. David Keith(here a LONG ways from "An Officer and a Gentleman" and even "Firestarter") as the gruff,angry,hard-bitten cop seems to barely register here. Stacy Keach's usual oiliness is underused here, and the film is set squarely on the shoulders of Keith,Hays and Anderson. It seems as if the writer(s) of the movie,in desperate need of a catch-phrase for Keith' s character,is best able to come up with the "Don't EVER insult my mama!"when a thug or goon he runs into calls him an S.O.B. Not very inspired,need I say.

Strictly late-night cable viewing. A cheap rental if you really must see this.

After dropping a date off at her house, "Mitch McCullum" (Robert Hays) goes back to his apartment, eats a bowl of Fruitloops and then goes to bed. Not long afterward the police bust into his house and arrest him for the murder of that same young woman who went by the name of "Donna Styles" (April Bogenschutz). As it turns out April was the daughter of a man named "David Styles" (Charles Napier) who just happens to be the mayor of New Orleans. So when an anonymous person posts bail for Mitch the mayor asks a bounty hunter named "Mace" (David Keith) to keep an eye on Mitch to make sure he doesn't try to flee the area. What neither the mayor, Mace nor Mitch realize is that April was deliberately targeted and the person responsible for her death has an agenda that threatens all three of them. Additionally, when a prostitute by the name of "Sarah" (Pamela Anderson) becomes accidentally associated with both Mitch and Mace she is also targeted as well. Now rather than reveal any more of this movie and risk spoiling it for those who haven't seen it I will just say that I found this movie to be unoriginal, uninspired and quite clichéd. No doubt those who enjoy chase scenes and pyrotechnics will love it but I thought it would have been nice if the director (David A. Pryor) had mixed in a semi-decent plot or a better script to go with all of the action. Unfortunately, this was not the case and the film suffered as a result. Accordingly, I rate this movie as below average.

Once you have witnessed the scene where Pamela (as a hooker??? how cheesy is that... at least the director knows why we are watching this crap...) gets the job done, you have no more reason to keep watching this atrocity... I put a 3/10 but for a girl or anyone who thinks Pam is ugly, this movie is not even worth that...
