Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Memorable, crazy movie
everything you have heard about this movie is true.
The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Objectively speaking; reading mountains worth of negative flack from the public, they hail Gangland the worse movie of all time. Back the truck up! Plan 9 from outer space is the worse. Gangland is a mere B movie pales in jurisdiction to Plan 9 a Z movie. Plan 9 is worse because for bad effects, like you can see the lines that holds up planets and what not. So comparing Gangland this movie is a step up.Gangland has a decent plot, a post-apocalyptic world after nuclear fallout (sort of like Detroit today lol)which lead to a plague outbreak, and a doctor found a cure. He has to bring the cure to Phoenix but Gangland (gang) captures him and forces him to develop it for Lucifer (Leader of Gangland). Jared, Derek and Alexis sought out to save the doctor and kill Lucifer and bring the doctor to Phoenix.But they didn't execute the movie too well, they could elaborate on the war and how the plague was set in by it. They added another Gangland made of muscle, he added zilch to it, for being pumped up of super steroids and DNA from the best soldiers, the monster doesn't hit as well. Stuff like being whipped for hours, Jared doesn't have lacerations on him, amazing! And the movie finished fast with a "Cliffhanger" feeling to it, but there is no sequel to it.Conclusion: My favorite actor Sasha Mitchell in this movie. Nice to see his Cody Lambert persona in it. The protagonist weren't too bad, the antagonist stunk. This movie isn't too bad at all, but it is a B movie, what do you expect? Cody Lambert in a knight armor on a white horse saving the day?Acting: 5/10 Plot 7/10 Execution: 2/10 Fighting: 4/10 MY Total: 18/40 = 45% which puts it 4/10 , 45% on a Metacritic scale would make this film bad.
It is a total ripoff of cyborg. A deadly flesh eating virus is destroying mankind while ganglanders (in place of Cannibalistic Flesh Pirates from Cyborg) terrorize and run the streets. The scientist who can cure the disease gets kidnapped and forced to develop the serum for an evil gang leader named Lucifer (Vincent Klyn-Fender from Cyborg, Klyn is way cooler and badass in Cyborg then he is in this crapper). The main hero has emotional flashbacks of his family being killed.It just felt like a total ripoff of Cyborg. which isn't all that bad because Cyborg is a rare martial arts classic.Some of the highlights in the film are SASHA MITCHELL, who looks ripped and kicks some serious butt! Ice T and Coolio are in for only 5 minutes and it is fun to watch Vincent Klyn play a baddie again. Worth watching if you like Cyborg or low-budget martial arts.The fight scenes are average. Except Mitchell still does some cool stuff.
I was not sure exactly how to rate this movie. Although I thought that it was quite possibly the worst film I have ever seen, I watched every minute crying with laughter. This is definitely one of those so-bad its amazing movies.Here are a few of the most hilarious parts: 1) 10 men armed with machine guns continually use them as billyclubs rather than firearms.2) The scientist looks EXACTLY like Phil Hartman's SNL character "Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer" 3) Damien, a gangleading villain that looks more like a pedophile than a gang member 4) Lucifer, the main villain, needs a scientist to do his tests for the plaque cure; However, infusing 25 DNA samples of former warriors in order to create the greatest superwarrior is fully within his scientific abilities 5) The superwarrior that he creates does not have a voice, rather, he exudes a growl which sounds like a rabid dog 6) The feather covered shoulderpads that Lucifer rocks 7) The most pointless boob shots.8) Ice T's pulse testing technique 9) What the hell was going on with the death of Lucifer??? 10) Sasha Mitchell could not help but let out a few "Step-by-Step" style giggles and "waooahh"s If you intend to enjoy a good action flick, rent absolutely any other movie on that shelf at the Blockbuster. HOWEVER if you and some buddies are sitting around looking for a good laugh, pick this one up.
The heroes are good actors (I'm a big Kathleen Kinmont fan) but they're surrounded by bad guys who never went to acting school and a director who couldn't have cared and simply slept through the filming. The movie had potential, the director failed miserably.
