ElWormo How did 4 big name rap superstars end up in a film like this? It reminds me of an old Adam & Joe sketch where they auditioned for genuine actors, cast the worst ones on purpose, and then deliberately made the most badly shot, rubbishly scripted 'hard hitting' gangsta film ever. For a joke. Well Urban Menace - is- that film, except in reality. A bunch of guys messing around and trying to act tough in a big poorly lit warehouse for an hour. The highlight of this bizarre calamity is Big Pun, who might have a posthumous claim for Worst Actor Ever. He is so bad it's surreal. Can anyone even understand a word he says? One of his lines that I'm guessing was supposed to be "so she had a change of heart" came out as "saaaa shaa shaaaa saaaaaaa". Skilled rapper yes, skilled line deliverer in bad film when attempting to act, not so much.To make matters weirder the whole movie is bathed in a trippy blue/gray light that makes it resemble some kind of boring dream. In fact maybe this was a dream? Yeah I'll go with that.

powertickle Absolutely atrocious. My friends tried to watch it to laugh at it, but we couldn't even do it. We had to turn it off after 15 minutes in utter disgust and disbelief. Everything about it is terrible...the acting, the dialogue, the story, the cinematography, the "special effects," etc. Who's idea was it to cast rappers? They have no musical talent, so they must be able to act? Simply terrible. It must be rented and viewed so that you can come to a new appreciation of what a terrible movie really is. Hey, you might get a laugh out of it too, but for me it was just so bad that I couldn't even mock it.

ALIZEEBUM I purchased this DVD & Driller Killer for 5 euro and expected something more than a compleat pile of crap. There is no story or plot.Urban Menace is a joke.I'm a fan of hip hop and usually find Ice T pretty lame but the tracks he used on this seem to be outtakes from his worst album.Snoop Dogg is rubbish and you would hardly know he was in it.Did he get paid $200 for an afternoons work? I give this 'film' one star simply because Fat Joe & Big Pun made me laugh with their rubbish 'acting'.If you could fix your DVD to only play the scenes with these two you could raise a smile. If you find the Urban Menace DVD lying in the street pass it by...a piece of burnt wood is more interesting.

fresh_ To the best of my knowledge, this is the worst film EVER made. I am not exaggerating, it is not like Showgirls or Virus bad, it is a whole new low. It was only released 'cause Ice T and co. had the money from being successful rappers to finance it itself. I do media and film studies, and we had to make the introduction to a thriller. Compared to this film, every single groups work looked like Usual Suspects or Momento, and it was the first time most of us had used any camera or editing equipment, or had ever storyboarded, written a script, or had any involvement in a film. I'm saying this carefully 'cause I don't want you to think I'm exaggerating how bad it is. The storyline is pitiful and makes no sense at all. The special effects are laughable, and I don't mean that they're low budget but they did what they could with them, they were actually the worst I've ever seen (like pitifully super imposed shots of flames when a building is supposed to be on fire). Instead of choosing actors, they chose rappers to play the parts of characters (snoop dogg himself has since acted well in a few films, but Fat Joe and Big Pun show they're complete and absolute lack of talent, as do the rest of the cast). There is absolutely nothing good about this film. I still feel like I'm not quite stating enough how bad it is, 'cause I've seen so many terrible and laughable films, but this is on a whole new level to anything I have ever seen. I am a big hip hop fan, and therefore have a certain amount of respect for Ice T and a lot of respect for Snoop Dogg, Fat Joe and Big Pun (RIP), but this should never have been made, and if you manage to get hold of a copy i urge you to burn it and therefore erase it from history, so there is no chance of anyone in the future seeing it and knowing that such disgustingly embarrassing things existed in our time.
