6/10
Overrated and overlong.

Having grown up in the seventies and eighties through a wonderful era of exploitation cinema, I can appreciate this film for what it is.

I am shocked though at the high ratings it has received.

The fire fight on the wharf when the police show up is laughable. The cops and the drug dealers unloading all manner of weapons and hiding behind their cars whilst only seemingly ten to fifteen metres apart. Seriously?

Fans of Blood in, Blood Out, American Me, Animal Factory and Runaway Train should enjoy this film.

What a pity the late Edward Bunker wasn't still around to polish and tighten up the screenplay.
