Deuces Wild (2002)
1/10
I've never walked out of a movie until now.
3 May 2002
The cliches quickly filled the theatre leaving me no room to sit comfortably, so I left. The war of the two street gangs ( the deuces and the Vipers) begins when the vipers give the deuces youngest brother some bad smack. He dies, the bad guy goes to jail. 3 years later the deuces (led by Dorff) have made it their goal to keep drugs off the block. But now the bad guy's getting out of Jail. And while he's in jail he has to say that he's going to kill the guy who put him in there. Oh my god, really? Because we had absolutely no idea he'd do that.

The movie is filled with on the nose dialogue pointing out things that we already know and are plainly obvious. I didn't care about the characters and nothing mildly interesting happened.

The worst part was the big fight scene where the deuces whip out their knives and chains as we see them slashing the air in slo-mo. Then they rise up over a hill with fog in the background and 80's production music guitar riffs play as they fight the vipers. Both gangs dressed in their leather jackets so we have no idea who's who. I think I vomited in my own mouth. No wait I laughed.

The movie is filled with mostly B actors but they're on the line between A and B,maybe B+ I mean they've done some good flicks, but Matt Dillon should have stayed in his trailer and even Brad Renfro was lame.

I dont know what happens at the end because I left and It's probably some great twist ending, oh wait no, it's probably predictable and cliched.

Oh yeah and Basketball Diaries was 50,000 times better.
