High school play is better

[Xavier_Stone · 1/10 · 6 June 2020]

There are better high school plays that have more acting ability than this. Within the first 8 minutes you can tell that this isn't going to get any better. There are pauses between some actors lines and it makes for painful watch. I lasted almost 17 minutes and couldn't do any more. The close up camera work in a tiny room with 4-5 people did me in.

Flaming hot garbage

[Jerriatric_springer · 1/10 · 11 June 2020]

Actually that's an insult to flaming hot garbage. Absolutely horrible. Anyone who gave the okay for this to be published needs to rethink their job and life. I get that it was a lower budget film, but the acting and dialogue is horrendous. Absolutely no life to the film. I think they were so proud of the car explosion scene, that's why it's all over the trailer. To the actors, don't quit your day job!! It's so bad, that you actually need to watch it

Worst movie.

[nonsoonuchukwu · 1/10 · 21 June 2020]

Don't waste your time watching, the actors should still keep their day jobs they would be needing it.

Don't Do It

[kwygrdvuiemcbpozsu · 1/10 · 29 June 2020]

This has to go down as the worst movies ever made, I mean of all time. If you watch this you will never get that 1 hour and 32 minutes back. Don't say you haven't been warned.

SUPER TRASH

DONT WASTE YOUR TIME! EVERY WORD SPOKEN WAS WORSE THEN THE LAST! ABSOLUTELY DREADFUL!

Offensive to the senses in so many ways

[leesimon-26357 · 1/10 · 16 February 2021]

Don't watch this piece of garbage. The characters are offensively written in every way. The degree to which the patterns of speech and body movements are stereotypical is so intense. I cannot believe that a script like this gets green-lit in light of the growing BLM movement nowadays. If you think back of the most stereotypically racist depictions of feuding black people on the Jerry Springer show, that's this cast of characters. It would only be a slight exaggeration to say the following: I believe that the people who wrote this, directed this, and overall made these actors act in this way should be prosecuted. It's almost like someone was raised on nothing but minstrel shows, Jerry Springer and Maury, and never met a black person, watched any other tv or listened to any music, and was then asked to write a script about "gang life in the inner city." There is not a single character in this movie that is not a one-note stereotype. If you can stomach the lazy, stereotypical, borderline-improvised dialogue, then you eventually get to a lazy, stereotypical, incomplete and plot-hole-ridden story. The scenes are disjointed. Every development is predictable. And I cannot express to you how distasteful the characters and the dialogue was, throughout. The acting was horrendous, and the direction absolutely relied on melodramatic reactions. There are no stakes, no real conflict, no tension, no mystery. Let's not even mention the one white, rapey friend. So let's say you're ok with terrible acting, no story, awful dialogue and ugly stereotypes, and you still might want to see this movie. You have more self-respect than to accept this low quality of sound. Every time someone raises their voice, there is actual feedback heard. It's like they used someone's old Fisher Price toy to record and mix the sound. I hated this movie while I watched it, and I hate it still. If you are curious and inclined to punish yourself for whatever reason, I guess you could see this diaper-fire of a movie. But please, I beg you, do not give this movie money in any way.

Waste of Resources

[ricardoschtiegmokwena · 2/10 · 24 June 2020]

When the movie begins it sets the tone for high expectations. The quality is top notch and the director of photography did his job well. The script is good and that's all there is to it. I'm never the one to give a movie a low rating but this dreadful. The acting is terrible as in very, very bad!!!!-I don't know why the producers chose to shoot a film with those actors. They are not even amateurs; it's almost as if they were fooling around because they had money to waste. The sound levels of the actors in the foreground closest to the camera were clearly audible and the sound of the actors in the background furthest away from the camera was faded out. What a terrible mess! An awful job at sound mixing. It's like a school project. I could tolerate all these mishaps and insults but then the final draw came -at the end of the movie ,the fight scene between the female lead and the male supporting actor .Oh my God !Like really????I couldn't stomach this one. I don't even want to talk about the shootout.(avoid unless if you want to smash the TV) Who agreed to go ahead and have this published? It's a disgrace to the film industry! Please No MORE. What a nightmare.

I Appreciate NOLLYWOOD better now

[wisave · 9 November 2021]

I have always been hatting on Nollywood moves until i saw this. I think, i appreciate Nollywood better now.

Code of thieves is a waste of time, poor storyline, bad acting, substandard directing, amateur lighting, rigid and unreal dialogue, dry sequence. The title looks catchy but the content is extremely wacky Pls dont waste your time downloading or watching.

Well done suspense

[lindapalmer · 7/10 · 26 June 2020]

This is definitely worth watching. Great suspense / tension. A realistic look into an underworld of great characters brought to life by talented actors. Thumbs up!

Because -1 is not an option

[dmanding20-485-799789 · 1/10 · 16 July 2022]

This movie gets a 1 ONLY because there's no option for -1...don't waste your time watching this movie, you'll regret it if you do! Horrible! TRASH!! Nothing else needs to be said.

Great Cinematography and action scene

[mahayanafilms · 7/10 · 25 June 2020]

An Indie film with great action sequences and music. A great crime movie story which is pretty real in some parts of US. Definitely worth a watch
