Street Boss (2009)
3/10
mindless gangster film . . . but still worth a watch
23 August 2010
Warning: Spoilers
this is a so so gangster movie that sounds great based on the title! Actually all the story resembles a very watered down version of the untouchables, with a surprisingly hard knock FBI agent kicking a lot of backside and not taking no for an answer.

From that perspective the film is quite good, however the main boss and his cartel do not really impress. It seems that it is merely three guys controlling the whole town which surely does not happen? The guy who was in NYPD blue seems to do a good job in his role though and actually the boss figure is a nasty piece of work, so it is watchable for that reason as well.

Just not enough meat on the bones for this script. Hard to believe a small town is controlled by just three mafia guys with one hard nosed FBI agent determined to bring them down.
