Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Love and a Bullet has a sly satirical tone that lifts it above the common herd of would-be Quentin Tarantino movies. Rap star Treach plays Bishop, a hit man who declares, "The world is full of people that, quite frankly, we all could do without." But his rationalizations start to fall apart when he's assigned to kill a woman who, in his eyes, deserves to live. Plus, he suspects that his boss--who runs an elite team of assassins--may have killed Bishop's own lover, a beautiful government agent. Naturally it's all building up to a typical spectacle of over-the-top violence with some gratuitous skin along the way (including full-frontal nudity from the very buff leading man), but what makes Love and a Bullet work is that the filmmakers use its absurd reality to make sneaky comments about race relations and job satisfaction. --Bret Fetzer

Product Description

In the ruthless world of contract killing the line between business and pleasure is one that should never be crossed. Music sensation TREACH (HBO's "Oz" Rapper) stars in the most explosive and intense thriller of the year - LOVE AND A BULLET. Also starring KENT MASTERS-KING (The Wash) FREEZ LUV (Baby Boy Coyote Ugly) and WALTER JONES (Malcolm X American Gun). Maleek "Ghost" Bishop (Treach) is a nasty dangerous killing machine - a street animal loaded with rage and packing a hair-trigger temper that's primed to explode. As word of his prowess in the fine art of murder spreads he finds himself recruited to join an elite band of professional hitmen. But when the big boss assigns him to keep an eye on his super-sexy girlfriend his loyalties are put to the ultimate test. Now the band of brothers that previously watched his back are eager to drive a bullet in it ... and the shooter becomes the target when the best of the worst come gunning for revenge.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating: R UPC: 043396069978

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad., February 14, 2005

By	(Mr.) N. Sean Wright (Whiteville, NC USA) - See all my reviews

You really don't expect much
from movies where rappers receive
top billing, but this movie
manages to stand apart from the genre.
Not only is this a fantastic action film,
but it also successfully combines
elements of comedy, social satire,
and blatant stereotype.
The absolute best thing about this movie
is the script. Eloquent, funny, intelligent,
and full of surprises.

Since I'm a person with an overactive mind
and short attention span, I'm always quick
to note which movies are able to maintain my
interest throughout the entire film. This film
does that and never disappoints.

I highly recommend this movie for purchase or rental.

Above all, I'm glad at least ONE rapper has turned out
to be a good actor.

3.0 out of 5 stars Very Entertaining!, December 7, 2002

By	BIGTONE (Washington DC) - See all my reviews

Okay, maybe this isn't a big budget action thriller, but it is definitely an action thriller. Trech and the rest of the cast don't let you down in this sexy, funny, action packed film. I rented it, but I'm gonna have to buy this soon.

3.0 out of 5 stars loved the frontal, June 11, 2004

By	candy91 (Detroit, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews

This movie was good. Worth watching. Worth buying. Decent acting and actors. The plot a little far fetched but still good.

Ladies definite plus was the FULL FRONTAL nude, strip scene with Treach. Too bad is wasn't longer and closer. The scene that is!!
