This is one of the worst excuses for a movie I've ever seen. I know that pretty much every up and coming pop star has to get a flick of his or her own, but really. Vanilla Ice is probably the worst excuse for a rapper to begin with (I don't like rap, but can at least respect legitimate rap artists) what made them think that he could try to act? The plot, or lack there of, is a shameless attempt to make Vanilla Ice look like the bad boy with a heart of gold rather than the schmuck that he really is. I hope that Michael Gross was paid well for this piece of crap, lord knows that he probably needed more cash after Family Ties went off the air, but why the hell did you do this movie???? Did they threaten you? Robbie's one liners were scathing, not as in they were vicious to the people they were directed against, but as in they sucked that badly. What girl ever fell for "Forget the zero, get with the hero" anyway? If that worked, every whiteboy, wanna be rapper would be knee deep in tail. But now no one will use it anyway because it's a Vanilla Ice line.
I don't even want to get into the lack of story. His gang was obviously assembled by some studio head because none of these people would be caught dead with Vanilla Ice. The grandma and grandpa mechanics tried too hard to be funny, but fell well short of the mark. The girl's boyfriend and his friends are your typical preppie types that are always included in these films continue to show the lack of originality. Finally, the girl's little brother bugged the hell out of me. What made this kid think that Vanilla Ice was cool? I know, A PAYCHECK.
Thankfully, Vanilla Ice's career is dead.
