This review is from: L.a. Wars [VHS] (VHS Tape)

In this movie, an L.A. detective infiltrates the gritty underworld of a mafia drug-dealing syndicate. Things get ugly when the mafia declares an all-out turf war on their rival, a Latino drug king. I don't want to say this movie was poorly made because it wasn't. It's just that maybe it would have benefited from a bit of fine-tuning. The movie in itself is decent except the plot becomes too convoluted for its own good, and the narrative becomes garbled. Consider, for instance, a scene where the detective is fighting a street battle and then the movie instantly cuts to a scene of him making love to his girlfriend. I guess that symbolized the fact that the man was looking for transcendence or something from all the violence, but that sequence, and the movie as a whole, could have profited from a just a smidgen of subtlety.
