Format:DVD
I looked at the cover and the title (I judge a DVD by the cover and the title because I'm shallow that way) and I thought, "That looks cool, violent, handsome, sexy, energetic and energising".
I'm glad to report that it was everything I expected.
It delivered coolness, violence, handsomeness, sexiness and energy to order!
But it delivered more...much more.
Firstly, it delivered an awful lot of incredibly good looking people.
Wow! It is a fact that everyone, that is to say, every male and female who appears in this film, is buffed with a capital B.
That is possibly unrealistic, although I have never been to Miami so I can't comment specifically, although I would like to think that it was indeed a fact.
I would like to think that somewhere in the world, there is a place where all the good looking people hang out - and if it is not a Miami nightclub then where on earth is it?
Anyway...
What I was pleasantly surprised about, was, among other things, Donnie Wahlberg himself. I must confess that this is the first film in which I have seen him. He's a great actor. He reminded me of Michael Keaton - that is to say, he vibes to me like he would also be a really nice guy in real life. I'm saying here that he came across as a genuine guy.
Second surprise: The Police are shown to be of integrity.
Third surprise: This is a 15, but it was only when the film had finished that I realised that, remarkably, I could not recall any "F" words in it, or even any "S" words. Just goes to show, you can make a good film without sweary words - not that I am against those in appropriate filmic context.
Criticisms of this film? I don't have any. I really enjoyed this film.
Advisory: No profanity, no breasts-out nudity (surprisingly, and for some, disappointingly), just lots of really good looking people, who also happen to have some serious violence and hard drug/nose bleeding issues going on.

Saps of South Beach
28 Nov 2007
This is on my "worst videos of all time" list. Jason Gedrick should be arrested for homicidal Botox. He's supposed to be a hothead who starts fights at the drop of a hat. Unfortunately, he has only one expression: a plastic sneer, and is far too groomed and tanned to be a threat to anyone but the unsuspecting viewers of this lame piece of celluloid. Donny Wahlberg, a good actor, is wasted here. There isn't a lick of sense to the entire thing. I only watched it for laughs. It really is hilariously awful. At one point Donny says to Jason that he didn't see "No one and nothin'." That should have been the title of this film. Still - it's funny as heck. Maybe you should see it, stoned, with like-minded friends. Worst case scenario: you doze off to the tinny, ditzy disco music, hypnotically-gyrating bimbos and Jason Gedrick saying, for the umpteen-millionth time, "You goin' soft on me, Andy?" Or maybe that was just a million other bad actors in a million other bad so-called gangster movies saying the same thing.

oooooh sooooo baddddd!

Format:DVD
I saw this on a video web site and thought it would be better than the reviews. I like Donny Wahlberg, but in this movie, not so good, frankly, he should have dropped the role. Maybe he's having tough times getting good scripts but this one was a real dog.
Frank John Hughes also was lost in this role. They could have gotten anyone to play this dink of police Lt.
Reunion time for Donny Wahalberg and Frank John Hughes after doing super jobs in "Band Of Brothers". Super series. I would love to see more of that type of movie. As for this one, a real snoozer... not worth the price of admission.
