The Dope Game

Summary: So terrible, it's funny!!!
Review: Obviously, some film company knows that money can be made off of viewers who want to see more films by men of color with men of color. This is a low-budget, Latino, "gangsta" film that should never have been made. The script is terrible. The acting is terrible. The humor falls flat on its face. There is a threadbare plot. The protagonists are stupid. The unique thing about this movie is that most of the characters are overweight. The protagonists wouldn't make the stupid mistakes they made if they weren't constantly driving off the highway to get food. I want actors of color to have more roles and get paid, but if this is their only route, then the whole world is struggling!

Review: This movie is so bad it makes you wonder if the directors were sandbaggin for laughs. I simply cannot imagine anyone putting this piece of cinema together thought it would be anything but unintentionally hilarious. Not only do the two main characters Jesus and Navalaja continuously talk about how hungry they are, their appetites actually are integral to the plot! Our two hapless assassins have tired of killing and have decided to try their hand at, you guessed it, the dope game. Their boss, ruthless California drug kingpin Logan, is portrayed so shockingly bad that you cannot imagine this guy got cast. After you're done with the whole flick though, you'll see that this actor hit par for the course on his performance. Jesus and his hot-blooded partner head to San Antonio, where the former's cousin has hook him up with a cheap source of heroin. After using Logan's money to buy the heroin, their appetites get the best of them and the two caballeros have to stop and get their grub on. After downing plate after plate of greasy enchiladas, as well as the biggest fruit bowl--or paletera for you gringos--I have ever see, they exit the restaurant only to find their rented Dodge Durango stolen. They go on a massive killing spree, whacking everyone in this small town, and eventually track down their booty. Let me just say that this movie has the worst acting, cinematography, sound, editing, and writing ever recorded, and that's being kind. Fortunately, it's so bad that you can't help but laugh. BTW--I think the audience was meant to be either stoned or drunk when watching this movie, so keep that in mind.

Summary: A lesson in the DOPE GAME...
Review: This movie was recommended by some homies and I decided to finally check it out. I shelled out 4 bucks at blockbuster and threw in this urbaan indie. It was a nice surprise. I thought it was gonna be the typical BS urban movie but it was so much better than the other crap I've gotten in the urban genre. The movie was low budget but it was definitley shot on film. More than I can say for all thoose first time wannabes who pick up a camcorder and think they can make a film with video. Anyhow, the acting was so, so, but the best was this crazy Mexican that the two main characters encounter in TEXAS. He looked real as hell. The story was cool, it had a lot of funny sh t in it and a lot of good action. Worth the rental. THUMBS UP VATOS!

Review: This movie was so poorly made and low-budget, that it has motivated me to buy a Canon XL1 Camera and make my own film. The acting is bad, the plot is unrealistic, and the script is poor. Thanks for the motivation.
