2.0 out of 5 stars "He's A Renegade Cop. Nothing Stands In His Way... Not Even The Law!", August 19, 2011

This review is from: Twisted Justice (DVD)

Niche market mfrs. such as TROMA ENTERTAINMENT offer no commentary, deleted scenes, subtitles or other bonus features. Dubs are "best available source" and can vary from very good to only fair.


TWISTED JUSTICE is a very low-budget crime drama set in a Los Angeles of the future, a city where firearms are outlawed. Even the police cannot carry weapons more formidable than airguns with tranquilizer darts (called 'stingers'). One officer though ignores the law and is not afraid to shoot to kill any criminal who endangers human life, especially his own. He is of course the hero of our story, played with some brio by writer/director David Heavener.

A potentially good concept is badly hampered by surprisingly amateurish performances from several 'name' actors, all of whom have done better work. Characters are cartoonish, lines delivered in over-the-top fashion, sets decorated from a Dollar Store, with hand-lettered signs standing in for professionally stenciled ones. Our hero cop's room is 70s college dorm, with walls that display purloined freeway signs in lieu of artwork, mirrors or anything hinting of good taste.

The audio mix is bizarre. Repetitive electronically-generated music and all sound effects are in stereo while voices get isolated to extreme left channel only, thus dialogue seems remote and at times hard to understand.

Despite all these drawbacks, action sequences are well-executed and are the only saving grace of what often seems a C+ student film. Only for action movie completists.


Parenthetical number preceding title is a 1 to 10 IMDb viewer poll rating.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for a B rated Movie, March 19, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Twisted Justice [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If you like B rated movies you will probably like this one. There is lots of action in this film. David Heavener is a sexey guy. You will also see small roles played by Shannon Tweed, and Eric Estrada.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Movie If You Have Nothing Else To Do, December 14, 2006

By

This review is from: Twisted Justice (DVD)

This is a good movie that has nothing really to be remembered for. It is kind of unrealistic but makes you think about the future.
