Bad Bizness (2003)
Bait & Switch
Awful acting. Awful dialog. Awful directing. Awful everything. Here's the quote from the tag line: "Traci Bingham stars as an undercover cop who poses as a streetwalker and infiltrates a prostitution ring to catch a killer preying on the "ladies of the night." But things get too close for comfort as she soon discovers the murderer may be someone she knows. Rapper Master P co-stars." Traci Bingham does not star as an undercover cop. She is possibly the worst hotel security person in existence. We never see a cop ever in this film. Our heroine never goes go under cover as a streetwalker. She never infiltrates a prostitution ring. Things never get too close for comfort. Rapper Master P does not "co-star". He appears "phoning in" to the other characters. This has to be one of the most retarded, juvenile piece of crap, that can't even be honest about what it's about. Avoid at all costs. Run! Run away!
Shoot or Be Shot (2002)
Shatner & Hamlin funny... film boring
OK, a film about a film that takes a crack at Video movie making could be entertaining. Could be, should be, funny, edgy, even controversial, or at least interesting, and yet... This film is the bizzaro negative version of that. Hamlin was entertaining as a 'B' Film producer. Shatner played crazy yet likable, and had all the best lines. The rest of the characters were boring, predictable, boring, underdeveloped, boring and boring. The production value was lame. You'll actually see the boom come down in one scene. The sound was awful in some of the scenes. Hey I'm a big fan of Shatner's and of Hamlin now, but their talents are wasted here. At least the story had a clichéd ending.
