adonis98-743-186503 New Orleans has the No. 1 per capital murder rating in the nation. A decade earlier the city was dubbed the "Murder Capital of the Country." Drugs and violence controlled the streets, taking a toll on the city's law enforcement, neighborhoods and its people. Illustrating this dark chapter in the city's history is "Death Toll". If you cut out the annoying DMX flashbacks, the dumb acting and dialogue Death Toll is an OK movie if you like action and any of this actors you might enjoy this film it's no masterpiece and there are a lot of bad things in it but for what it is it was a watchable movie to kill your time. I'm going to give it a 7 out of 10 it wasn't perfect but it was a nice and OK film nothing more.

seahorse76-1 I decided to watch the movie because I was curious about DMX and Lou Diamond Philips. DMX was something like a narrator and Philips was one of the "main parts", but not seen very often on the screen. After the first 20mins I was waiting for the Action, but there was nearly none except a few minutes of shooting scenes during the movie and lots of dead people and blood. I was lucky that the movie has subtitles, so I was able to understand everything. Lots of slang, weird talking and a lot of the F***-word. without these words, the movie would have been 30mins shorter. The movie is more a documentary than an action movie but even as a documentary the movie is still a bit boring and disappointing. If you do have no expectations you won't be disappointed.

mathildakorah i had to wait a couple of weeks to be able to rent this movie at red box because i was exited to see what was in store for movie fans. i was surprised to see how bad it was. in fact i did not finish it, "boring as hell". i do not understand why Lou and DMX can be in a movie that bad. i wanted to see it because of them, not the title. if the intent of the movie was to show the reality of violence and drug in some neighborhoods or how hard life can be in them, there are movies that have done a better job. how can two well known and good actors participate or even produce what looks like a low budget and non professional movie. a few minutes after i started to watch the movie i was no longer interested in finishing it. there was too many mistakes and i was confused. i had a hard time following the story and that's annoying. none of the actors acted as pro even those who are suppose to be. after seeing DMX with Steven Seagal and with Jet Lee in other movies i could not believe he was involved in that farce that was a shock. it's a good thing that the movie was free, i would have regretted my money. i still regret the time i spent being all exited. actors should think before putting their names or participate in certain projects. where are the friends and the critics? MDX better get serious next time he wants to produce another movie. that people, was not good at all

gridoon2018 Perhaps the best indication of this film's quality lies in the fact that even DMX, who is second-billed, doesn't bother to show up long enough to have any interactions with any of the other characters; instead, he occasionally pops up as a talking head in a dark room, pontificating about life and death. Lou Diamond Phillips, who is first-billed, appears for a total of no more than 10 minutes and cashes probably the easiest paycheck of his life. Although "Death Toll" is billed as an ACTION film on IMDb, there is not even ONE small decent action sequence to be found, just a few (badly directed) shootings. Let me repeat: there is NO ACTION in this "action" movie. It's more of a drama - one, however, where all the characters are stereotypes (from the idealistic mayor - Lou - and the lazy police officers to the career-driven female assistant DA and the vulgar, mindless, illiterate drug pushers), where the dialogue cannot be followed without subtitles (either because of "da hood" lingo or because the constant rap music drowns it out), and where most of the cast is made up by rappers. The only bright spots in this positively dreadful film are the absolutely gorgeous Leila Arcieri and Keshia Knight Pulliam - if they were given more to do, I might have given "Death Toll" more than 0.5 out of 4 stars.
