5.0 out of 5 stars Not Bad, July 11, 2008
This review is from: Bobby Z (DVD)
This movie deserves more respect as far as an action flick is concerned it is excelent. Now lets not compare it to the godfather or some other masterpiece. It is what it is a good entertaining action movie.

2.0 out of 5 stars Read The Book Instead, June 29, 2010

This review is from: Bobby Z (DVD)
I'm a big fan of writer Don Winslow. I really enjoyed his book The Death and Life of Bobby Z. So I got a copy of this movies to see what the film version was like. The acting was wooden (even with a good actor like Lawrence Fishburne), but for the first half of the movie, it kept pretty much to the book. After it started deviating, the movie quickly went downhill.
My suggestion is get a copy of the book, and forget the movie.
