Great film. Great soundtrack.
posted by mickuervo on Jun 29, 2008Really good little movie, with a great script and very oddball casting that somehow works very well. Eriq La Salle as the baddest of badasses, Boxer Lennox Lewis who is really great as a weed-puffing rasta and Vinnie Jones in the lead role. There's even an appearance from Roger Daltrey from The Who. It's not the best made movie I've ever seen, but the larger than life characters manage to be funny and engrossing at the same time, and the soundtrack is truly superb - wall to wall reggae and DnB from Adrian Sherwood of On-U. Really worth a look.
