What makes it different from others?

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

This is a movie called " Jump out boys ", but was peddled as a film called " Lords of The Streets. " Watching this film one asks the question, why Kris Kristofferson? Was he just looking for work of any kind? He is a top notched actor and has proved himself in many other films. So why this film? I can only ascertain that the man is unemployed, and has to do something to pay the bills. With very little screen time, one can only watch the movie with patience and regret. The story is that of a Mexican Warlord who has the where-with-all to plan a superb Prison escape and then searches for his girl-friend accomplice who now works as a government informant. Indeed, after the daring escape, which is the best part of the film, the movie is all down hill as the ruthless leader, begins making mistakes everywhere. Kris Kristofferson plays Raymond, an aging New Orleans Officer, who gives his partner 90 percent of the story line and then humbly takes bows. The movie itself is poor, the acting is second rate and the rest of the movie is standard at best. It's far from a great film and one wonders if there is a refund. Except for some selected scenes, the movie is not recommended to anyone save those who are forced to sit through the rest of this second rate movie. **

If your instinct tells you that a film is not worth the watch, heed the warning, find another film instead. Because failure to do so may cause you to waste your precious time.I learn it the hard way. I decided to watch this film even though my instinct told me not to.This film is bad from the get go. The cast is terrible (LOL DMX as the main guy? You have got to be kidding me!). And the other actors weren't that convincing either.And the worst part of this film is the camera angles. It is so amateurish and lacked quality. It was like watching high school kids doing some assignment for the schoolwork.Verdict : DMX can't act . Period .

I just lost 1h20m of my life ! This movie is awful ! I'm not kidding ! The plot is lame ,dialogs are pathetic ,acting is even worst ! Kris Kristofferson (the only real 'actor' in this 'movie' ) plays his part like a rookie . DMX (the star on the cover) appears for 4-5 minutes in the whole movie ,trying to revenge something that the director though it will be insignificant to show us .Special effects are way behind ,looking like some "80's wanna be blockbuster" The movie ends with a scene that wants to be ...i don't know how to say it , "i never wanna see something like this again" ,or "god ,why did i pay for this !!!" But hey ,who knows ,maybe you'll like it ! ( i sincerely doubt it ! ).

Jump Out Boys jumped right off of the screen and into my heart. In the word's of Emily Dickinson, "How strange that nature does not knock, and yet does not intrude! " Indeed, the film dances temptously at the fringes of the soul, beckoning the viewer to step into its world of hooligans, scoundrels, and flagrant tomfoolery. The piece is mixture of disparate film-making disciplines, the proverbial love child of early films such as Meshes of The Afternoon and The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari. Sheldon Robins gives a heart-stopping performance as Detective McCoy, a rebellious DEA agent with a heart of gold. Singer/songwriter DMX comes across as tough yet vulnerable. Kris Kristofferson and Ameer Baraka keep it cool as two detectives who play by nobody's rules but their own. The sumptuous photography carries us from the skies, to the swamp's of Louisiana, and into our very souls. Bravo.
