This movie was entirely passable, it was no Training Day, but not garbage either. Worse ways to spend 2 hrs. I also liked Bright, a lot, so sue me.

I watched this as soon as it dropped on Amazon at 2am. Short and sweet review. A slow burn crime thriller. Solid acting. A handful of legit action/gun shootouts.

Solid acting. A handful of legit action/gun shootouts. I’ll say it’s no Shooter, but it stands on its own feet. Awesome antagonist. I’m not disappointed with my purchase. I’d recommend not listening to these negative reviews. I personally loved it and I’m all about crime/gangster films. I’m not gonna say it will win any awards, but for 2020 it’s dope.… Expand

FIRE!! LaBeouf & Soto GREAT, George Lopez was AUTHENTIC, and Conejo was THAT BOY. If you can’t relate to this, it’ll hit different. Best Gangster Film I’ve seen in a while.

Modern Day Life of Street Gangs. Shia Labeouf character was my favorite. It’s like when Actor Al Pacino played Tony Montana in “Scare Face” 80’s Cuban persona

Creeper: Open your mouth!
[puts his gun in the man’s mouth]
David: He’ll splatter your brains, and I don’t want that.
Creeper: I do. I want that.

Slow at the beginning but it let you see so much about gang member and then the action starts and it goes wild. Please don't be a baby and think this goes against latinos.

Most Meta reviewers are Caucasians that think right off the bat think that the film is racist and full of stereotypes, but have no idea what it was like living in the ghetto or the projects in California. From La to Oakland drugs, money, and violence has plagued the streets, but nothing matches to what the cartel or Mexican, Hispanic, Chicano gangs are capable of and this film shows that true darkside of it all. Images that you only could find on bestgore rides through this movie keeping focused on every character especially Shia LaBeouf's. Kreeper is just a straight up sicario and just by watching his character you can feel the natural psycho extert off Shia and realize why Hollywood won't give him roles anymore and its just because he makes it feel too really. The gruesomeness throughout film just reminds you of what Mexico deals with on the regular and could not imagine this happening today in California since it takes place in the ghettos of LA. But the movie did fall short with feeling rushed kind of loosing character development and moving so quick that it felt like you missed so much from the main characters that weren't kreeper. But the film was overall enjoyable and not the worst thing that has been released this year and can find yourself relating to the film if you grew around the a ghetto area because thats the only way you'd figure out if they just straight stereotyped everyone in the film which they did not because the main characters wife works for a large company and is actually the smart one since she handles the accounts or if thats really how they act at times. The film could have been better, but i was glad to see something realistic instead of a special effects film that makes no sense for once. So all and all I recommend this film much more than anything Netflix is making at the moment.… Expand

Trust the audience score across the board. It's not a masterclass in character development, nor should it be. It's a solid action flick, great acting, well shot, and a fun ride!

It's a solid action flick, great acting, well shot, and a fun ride! If Shia's character was not outrage fuel, the critics would probably review it higher. Why do our favorite comedies and action flicks always get bad reviews? Because people get paid money to jump on bandwagons and crap on our taste. Watch this movie, I'll bet you like it.… Expand

The vivid realization of what goes on in the underworld of gangs is thrilling , could go for a bit more bloodshed on the collectors part , and a bit less of the politics but it was overall a good movie id watch again, hope ayers puts out moreThe vivid realization of what goes on in the underworld of gangs is thrilling , could go for a bit more bloodshed on the collectors part , and a bit less of the politics but it was overall a good movie id watch again, hope ayers puts out more like this , cause whats considered to be movies in this day and age are trash, tired of the monotonous cliched action thrillers that are usually made. Need more like this showing the dark grizzley side of things . and this movie shoulda been made into a tv series instead ahowing the coming up of the tax collectors woulda been a series that would be exciting to watch… Expand
