In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

... View MoreThis movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
... View MoreIt is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
... View MoreI loved this show when I twelve. Believe you me I never missed a show. The guy that played Grady was my favorite. Brad Pitt later followed behind him once the show went off the air. Still, I can recall waiting up to watch Street Justice and the Untouchables while everyone slept. All while eating ramen noodles. Even though the people in the show have faded from my mind the memory and time as well as place in my life are remembered. It's truly amazing what the old shows bring back. Like, where you were, what you were doing. It does in some weird way take you back. I am twenty eight, married with two kids. Where does the time go? Anyway, thank you for keeping a little of this memory alive.
... View MoreFor a syndicated show, hell, for a TV series period..S.J. had many well thought out and exciting/though provoking scripts and Carl weathers proved yet again that given the right vehicle,scripts, etc he can deliver and he did for 2 seasons in spades!!Strange enough most of my favorite TV shows and most of the best made/done TV shows from the late 80's -early-mid 1990's were made inside & outside the USA and were syndicated! he-he. Ex. "highlander the series, forever knight, silk stalkings, renegade" etc.If given another shot on the small screen it could have run another yr or 2 and it was one of my favorite shows as well as most of my friends..we all loved Carl weathers (we are/were bodybuilders) and Carl was and still is in just awesome shape! Carl kicks ass and is an underrated acting talent.I'm not sure if he could carry a series well into his 50's but if he's willing to crank it up again I'd watch!! How about 'ACTION JACKSON 2'?? DVD RELEASE OF THIS SERIES IS A MUST!! TV today is a joke.. besides will & grace (winding down finally) and a few others, its all reality crap TV, dip shits eating bugs or jumping off cliffs naked or "real world" n survivor. If only we could hark-en back to a time not to long ago when so many shows were well produced (and for a fraction of the cost of most network shows these days!!) well made, had better acting, more action etc.if that were the case, I might watch network TV again..but, until then i will just stick with cable original programming and watching these old great shows like street justice, highlander!actor,bodyguard, "film critic", Martin in Chicago IL USA
... View MoreI was twelve when I ran across this show back in the early 90s. I have to say, I was impressed back then. There was action, the stories were good, and each episode was interesting. Carl Weathers was coming off his 80s fame from movies such as Action Jackson and Predator. The rest of the cast were relatively unknown, at least on the 12 year old circuit.Of course, there is always the story of the breakout star. In season two, Boudreax got a new partner named Eric Rothman, played by a then unknown actor named Eric McCormack who would end up on a little show called Will and Grace.Bryan Genesse has gone on to infamy in the B movie circuit. Granted, he has potential. If given the right scripts and marketing, he could be a contender in the action movie business, but he makes the B versions for now.There was just the right mix of action and dramatic scenes to keep the show from falling into a creative rut. I wish it had lasted longer and that it would be released on DVD.
... View MoreThis show was one of my guilty pleasures in the early 90s. Half-Drama, half-action, it always had a little something for everyone. Decent dialogue, interesting story lines, and good fight choreography (one of the episodes even had Billy Blanks fighting Bryan Genessee in the final scene).Overall, the actors seemed to have decent on-screen chemistry (the romantic tension between Malloy and Beaudreaux, the Paternal-turned-fraternal relationship with Grady and Beaudreaux) and references to Grady's checkered past added some depth to the show. Fast and stylish (at least by early 90s standards), Street Justice is a little like "Walker, Texas Ranger" if it had been aired on the WB(though this was long before the WB came out). Worth seeing if you could find it somewhere.
