Jeff Speakman followed up his solid action fare 'The Perfect Weapon' with 'Street Knight'. A disappointingly bland urban action which has Speakman (an ex-cop) caught between a street gang war (actually orchestrated by a third party), but instead of busting his way out of it. Everyone decided to go down a different path, which goes on to waste his talents (unlike 'The Perfect Weapon'). Instead focusing on dramatic plot cues and a script lined with probing leads and deep conversations for Speakman to sink his teeth into... yeah, not much talent there. Unless you like waiting around for over an hour to see Speakman do what you were originally hoping. When it does happen, after being slowed down by its monotonous story. It's not often, or particularly exciting. Quite half-hearted to have any real impact. So, it's a waste.
Interestingly this was the last film Cannon Films produced before bankruptcy. A forgettable way to go out on.
