AMAZING ACTION-THRILLER!!!,
By
This review is from: Loaded (DVD)
Wow!!!! Where did this film come from??? It was so cool and I never heard of it before!
Really fun, energetic movie about a guy who gets in with the wrong crowd and things get really out-of-control. Does anyone remember that movie BAD INFLUENCE with James Spader and Rob Lowe? This is that kind of movie with a really cool modern day twist. Smoking hot girls, action and a cool story makes this a really fun ride.

A SURPRISING RELEASE,
By Colorado Kid (Boulder, CO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Loaded (DVD)
I recently saw this film in Los Angeles at a screening there when I was visiting a friend and was surprised that I had not heard more about it. Good film. Well Made and full of hotties. Natalie Kelly is smoking in this. She oozes Sex when she is on screen. Jesse Metcalf gives a great performance along side Johnny Messner (WHO IS CRAZY IN THIS), Corrupt, Chase Crawford, Vinnie Jones, Lochlyn Munro, and Corey Large. The cast is great, the acting is good, and the film is interesting in its style, plot and execution. Again the girls were hot!!!
I dug the score and source music in the film. It overall has a very fresh and young vibe to it. Would recommend it to those looking for something to caters to that Fast and Furious crowd. Good flick.

Kick A** Action and Hot Chicks!!,
By Dave's Film Review (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Loaded (DVD)
This is definitely one to check out if you love action, sex and drugs! The chicks in this film are hot and there is enough action around the dramatic plot to keep you interested. A must see in my book!

An after school special, but worse...,
By Coot (hell) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Loaded (DVD)
Wow. This movie is horrible. Guy goes to strip club meets stripper, smokes pot, and a week later he is addicted to coke, has pretty much dropped out of law school, is cheating on his girl and is pulling guns on people. Yeah. Ok. He does coke 3 times yet he goes through withdrawals in jail. Really?
The chicks are ok, but not enough to save the rest of the movie. If you want to see a guy in a bowling shirt acting like a wanna be gangster then this is your movie. This would fit better as a Lifetime network movie of the week... I bet my Mom would love this movie.

What, you never had a week like this?,
By Ghenghis (Monvolia) - See all my reviews

I dont understand the bad reviews for this flick. OK OK, I get that not everybody has been exposed to this "lifestyle", particularly not the concentrated fun our hero has here in what appears to be about 3 days, but believe me, these things DO happen. BTW, this is not a Vinnie Jones movie, he only makes a couple of short appearances as a senior manager in the LA distribution network, but very effective as usual.
Now I'm not going to give away the plot, which is a little beyond reason, but anybody thats ever hung out with strippers and drug dealers will love this thing. Hot girls, great action, ridiculous story, beware. haw haw 4 Lines.

Shooting Blanks,
By
This review is from: Loaded (DVD)
LOADED is a terrible film. Filled with despicable characters who do ludicrous things, all ninety minutes of this clunker fail to inspire anything but boredom and possibly confusion.
The plot follows the young, wealthy, handsome, and over-priviledged Tristan Price (even his name is cool!). Due to a hazy, drug-induced tragedy during his high school years, Tristan has been put under house arrest by his dad. Six years later, during his birthday, he's allowed one night out with his buddies. The party gets a little out of hand, Tristan gets a little caught up in all of the "fun," and his buddies (let's call them Plot Contrivances) disappear for the rest of the movie, while Tristan does all kinds of stupid and illegal things for no apparant reason whatsoever. LOADED is filled with the kind of jittery and over-exposed shots that you're more likely to find in low-rent music videos. In this case, they are meant to convey Tristan's struggle with the drugs that surround him and the steadily chaotic life that he finds himself living. The movie trumpets a lame duck attitude of Drugs-Are-Cool-And-Also-Dangerous, a paradox that makes the art-wrecked cinematography all the more unbearable. That's not the least of this film's problems. Aside from Erin Gray, who plays Tristan's mother, the entire cast of this film fails to make any impression beyond pure boredom. Jesse Metcalfe's Tristan is particularly annoying, although that may just be because he's the main character. His slide into delinquency is so easy and so sudden, it makes one wonder if he doesn't have some kind of mental disorder. The story tries to make the father out as some kind of demanding czar, but considering how Tristan immediately turns to drugs and guns the moment he is let out of the house, the father's knee-jerk paranoia doesn't seem so misplaced. As it is, Tristan is only likable inasmuch as you are willing to believe that he is simply a put-upon idiot. Tristan is swayed by the schmoozy charms of a drug dealer named Sebastian. Played by Corey Large (who also co-wrote the film), Sebastian is smug, distant, and says all of his lines as if he is at the script's first read-through. He's meant to be charming and absorbing, but the only fascinating thing about him is how tiny his face is in comparison to his head. His world of cocaine and bullets is no different than any other low-budget dreck that tries to make killing people exciting, with the possible exception that it is conspicuously devoid of any graphic violence or nudity. Great pains are taken to make it obvious that there's more to Sebastian than meets the eye, but unless the viewer is as stupid as Tristan, there are no surprises to be found here, and certainly no fun.

KURUPT,
By
This review is from: Loaded (DVD)
LOADED
Naturally you know why I got this movie, KURUPT. I can't help it I am a loyal fan and will get any thing with the man's name on it. This film luckily is a pretty decent film, though it tries to hard to be like every other film in its genre. The story is all about a kid named Tristan Price played by Jesse Medcalfe going out one night with his little brother and meeting the wrong people. These people end up getting him into all kinds of trouble, and even turn his family on him at one point. The leader of these folks is Sebastian played greatly by Corey Large [who also co wrote and co produced], who not only uses Tristan but also goes after his girl. It is actually a pretty good story that Corey, Director/producer Alan Poe, Kyle Kramer, & S.A.Lucerne came up with. And you can tell that Alan Poe was really trying to put together a good movie. The look of the film was good; the feel was good even the sound was good everything meshed real well together. The down side was performances by some of the actors. Kurupt of course gives a wonderful performance in this film but he isn't around long enough to do anything, although the best scene in the film revolves around him when he is about to be killed. It is that scene in particular that Kurupt shines, his performance is great. Same can be said for Corey Large and Vinnie Jones who plays Mr. Black. The led player Jesse Medcalfe is good in this film as his is brother played by Chace Crawford. The problems arise from the females in this film, hence beauty does not equal good acting. And while none of them were horrible, none were impressive either, where's Kathy Bates when you need her. Over all this was a pretty good film, I recommend renting it first to see what you think, but if you are a Kurupt fan go buy it at once

aggressively mediocre,
By
This review is from: Loaded (DVD)
This movie wasn't even bad enough to be interesting. Tristan used to be a party boy till his girlfriend OD'd at a party, and now he's just turned 25 and getting ready for lawschool. A crazy birthday night leads him to his old drug dealer, Sebastian. He gets back into the party lifestyle because of a hot stripper. No other reason. Forget that he has a fiancee that he supposedly loves. Tristan is apparently the kind of guy who just does whatever a stronger person tells him, whether that's his dad or his dealer. Why should we have any sympathy for someone like that? The movie flips around from Crank-ripoff to morality play to mystery-thriller with no sense of direction whatsoever. There's really only a grand total of 15 minutes of action, and most of those take place in the last 10 minutes of the movie. If you have to watch this movie, just watch the first 15 and last 15 minutes.
