Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Noutions Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

FlashCallahan Two corrupt cops murder an undercover DEA agent by mistake, and frantically try to cover their tracks by framing a homeless man for the crime.That involves juggling evidence, coaching witnesses, and improvising to keep their desperate scheme from unravelling...James Belushi should stick to comedy, or be a comedy sidekick. There is a lot of talk of Tupac becoming a great 'actor', and while he is okay in this, there is nothing to show he could have been the next big thing.The way rappers or 'hip hop stars' do in movies, i'm sure he'd be concentrating on his music, or making straight to blu ray movies with Snipes.The premise of this film is so so good, and has great potential, that it's such a shame it's treated in such a hap-hazard way.Belushi is unbelievable as a dirty cop, and i was expecting Jerry Lee to come to his rescue.There are the inevitable double crosses and the predictable ending. It tries to be like a gritty seventies cop movie, but ends up dreary and boring.Quaid is the saving grace in this movie, and his character is the most interesting arc in the whole movie. It's a shame he's not in it longer.

Adam Venedam Its one of the films where your watching it and waiting for something to happen, like a final crazy ending, but I hated the ending...Great acting, the only reason I give it 5 is because 2Pac is in it and its always good to see him in anything:) but other than that I wish it could of been better, I cant really explain, the story was highly interesting it just felt like the last half could of been done differently, I feel from that point on it went downhill. Its kind of just like Gridlock'd, how it felt like nothing happened by the end of the film except Ill admit Gridlock'd was a lot better I found. Wish 2Pac was still here so he could of made his own films and see him direct them. Or at least wish he got at least 3 more years in life so he could of put some more out:(

kriisalis Good movie....has a few twists and turns you don't expect. Both James Belushi & the late Tupac Shakur were well cast in the main roles - especially Belushi - this role being very different from his usual ones. The only other two cast members that have some grunt in the movie are Lela Rochon and Dennis Quaid. James Earl Jones has an appearance - if only small - but for me I will never be able to disassociate him from the voice we have all come to know as Darth Vader. Dennis Quaid however does some lime light stealing - but you'll just have to watch it to find out why! Overall good entertainment - may not be everyone's cup of tea - but had me engrossed. In a sense a typical good cops go wrong movie - but one that at least grabs you and sucks you in to watching it to find out what happens next. I gave it a 7/10.

stargirlrk I like gang movies and especially 2Pac so I decided to see this film. It opens with Divinci (Belushi) and Rodriguez (2Pac), who are both undercover cops, selling $25,000 worth of cocaine to a man in a hotel. They then kill him soon after outside the hotel and take the drugs, not knowing that the man was also an undercover cop. So the murder gets out, and the two guys are selected by the police department to investigate the murder, which they happened to have committed. The pair finds a homeless man on the street, and brainwashes him into thinking that he killed the cop. The entire film Divinci and Rodriguez are trying to erase their path, even taking guns from the evidence-room at the police station to hide the evidence that they are the killers. The movie is generally boring, with the pair acting quite similar to Danny Glover and Mel Gibson in the Lethal Weapon films, both of thm being generally stupid and clumsy. So the end of the film comes, and in a very confusing ending Divinci is killed by an unknown assailant and Rodriguez is killed by a mob leader whom he owed money. It was somewhat entertaining to see Belushi and 2Pac together and the dumb things they do throughout the film. It was very unclear why the film was entitled "Gang Related" and unless you are a die-hard fan of 2Pac or Belushi you should not waste your time on this. Feel free to email me if you have any questions or comments.
