The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Without question this is the worst movie in history. I could go on forever on how bad this movie is. Atrocious acting, poor direction, horrible action with amateurish gun play that would not look out of place in a student film, a brainless story and screenplay, and extremely sloppy editing. It definitely has a low budget feel about it, and it looks as if it was certainly done on the cheap with minimal money spent and it certainly shows.Michael Madsen and Dennis Hopper are sadly wasted considering they received top billing. Michael Madsen's character who is trying to emulate his (in)famous role as Mr Blonde, comes across as a buffoon who thinks he's cool. Dennis Hopper who is well known for movies such as Blue Velvet and Speed among others, is not even worth a mention. Although he had a very brief role, he was certainly a shadow of his former self and you could tell that he wanted to be elsewhere.All the LAPD police officers portrayed in this movie came across as total jerks and the wild parties depicted in the movie would be fitting for university students and young adults, not this group of 40 year old adolescents. This movie is an absolute insult to the Los Angeles Police Department.As I said at the beginning, this is the worst movie ever made. Don't even bother wasting your time and money on this God-awful movie. If you are curious at how bad this movie is, view it at your own risk.If it was possible to award this zero stars, I would do so. However, I will just settle for awarding this one star.1/10.

I'm embarrassed to say I even hesitated to change the channel when this...hell I don't know what to call it, it doesn't deserve to be called a movie. I hate to knock on any movie because I know how hard it must be to get a movie made, but the idea that anything people must have worked so hard on could turn out to be this bad is both depressing and frightening. I've never actually hated a movie, but this one comes awful close, the only reason I rated it a one is because I could not rate it any lower.

A lot of my friends worked on this movie. They said there were tons of cop-movie in-jokes here and everybody would crack up between takes, with cast and crew having a good time during all those party scenes. They said Marc Singer (remember Beastmaster ?) was a really cool guy, Madsen laid back and Hopper (gettin' kinda' creaky in his way) but still stretching his chops. Its just a low-budget flick fer' gosh-sakes. Sincere in its ponderous way and way better than any million-dollar stinking Seagal or Stallone crap-shoot. Course you can bet your ass nobody was getting $20 million to star in this. Like, you all were expecting maybe "Miami Vice" ? Morally, I figure this flick is a hell of a lot better than some reprehensible 'fun' slasher-crap flicks that fanboys seem to eat up like so many catsup-dripping hotdogs. Hell, I bought this movie in a discount bin at Blockbuster, expecting the worst and surprised to get more than my money's worth. Charles Durning was pretty solid in this and the twist at the end was totally unexpected. And without a doubt, I agree with some of the other comments that the gals were definitely HOT ! This is just a freakin' low-budget movie with all the exploitation elements intact, and every dollar up on the screen. Controversial ? Not really. Amusing ? Yes. A good movie ? Well, better than a lot of the big-budget studio crap that's out there...

To Protect and Serve: Protect us the viewer and serve the acting to the dogs. Why oh Why did I rent this? Because of Dennis Hopper. After all, he has made some good films, even very good ones. I saw him on the cover, and instead of checking IMDB first, I took a chance. This trash is the Plan Nine from Outer Space version of modern law enforcement. If I were a LAPD employee, a LA criminal, a citizen of LA, even an alien from Mars, I would demand that all money used in this production be used to burn all copies of this wherever they may be. Considering the absolute total ineptness of the acting, directing, and writing efforts here, there may be only enough loose coin to burn just one copy. Dennis Hopper was in this for 3 maybe 4 minutes. And you could plainly see he was over acting. Dennis, do not add this to your filmography. This is a very, very bad film.
