leplatypus This is the standard American action / thriller soup with : gunfights, car chases, death, nudity, corrupted politicians, explosions, sex, corrupted cops, bar fight, … However, this movie has a jewel that is to say Pamela Anderson. I have always like her natural, her simplicity and her bad choices too. She is rather fun here and notwithstanding she is dressed very lightly all the movie, she manages to give 2 hot scenes as well ! The movie happens not in the usual LA but in New Orleans and it's true that the city isn't very glamorous ! I don't know why she chose to do it while she was already a star in « Baywatch » but it's better than her other (bad) movies (« snapdragon », « naked souls »).. It's funny to notice that the french video cover shows clearly the skin action and that all the cast is credited with their famous movies. Wondering if later the ones who did that one will be credited with « from « Raw Justice » »?

S.R. Dipaling A action-adventure,crime drama,pseudo-comedy,buddy picture that fails practically at all levels. Robert Hays,whose career had a handful of early successes--the short-lived success of TV's "Angie" and the two wildly funny "Airplane" movies--followed by a long string of films that would elicit blank stares of confusion if mentioned to the average film viewer--"Touched",anyone?--and numerous TV projects that would not last past a year(my fave was the TV treatment of "Starman"),ends up in this flick which really has little going for it except the film debut(?) of Playboy mega-babe and "Baywatch" fixture Pamela Anderson. Her nude/sex scenes along with a very lovingly filmed shower scene with starlet model April Bogenschutz really seem to be all that makes this flick seem watchable. David Keith(here a LONG ways from "An Officer and a Gentleman" and even "Firestarter") as the gruff,angry,hard-bitten cop seems to barely register here. Stacy Keach's usual oiliness is underused here, and the film is set squarely on the shoulders of Keith,Hays and Anderson. It seems as if the writer(s) of the movie,in desperate need of a catch-phrase for Keith' s character,is best able to come up with the "Don't EVER insult my mama!"when a thug or goon he runs into calls him an S.O.B. Not very inspired,need I say.Strictly late-night cable viewing. A cheap rental if you really must see this.

DoomsdaySlayer i thought this movie was kind of funny because david keith had sex with pamela anderson after a high speed chase. does anyone know why this is? the movie had D- action and a plot that only John Woo could do something with. It was a stupid movie but the sex scenes were good.

berw Oh yeah, what a movie! Really great B-action, with characters typically in their shoes, the great shoes of funny actionners. Keith is a perfect melt between the Angel Heart's Mickey Rourke and The Last Boy Scout's Willis. Pamela Anderson is not as well as in Barb Wire but... who cares ? She's just beautiful, and that's what count. See it, with a smile on your face.
