The Death And Life Of Bobby Z




Rating: R

Movie Release Date: November 17, 2007 (Japan)

DVD Release Date: June 13, 2007 (Poland) / September 4, 2007 (USA)

Plot 411: A convict is offered a deal that will give him his freedom if he impersonates a drug dealer.

Review: Paul Walker stars as Tim, a con who is serving time after a series of unfortunate circumstances. Gruzsa (Laurence Fishburne), a DEA agent, offers Tim a deal: pretend he is high-flying drug dealer Bobby Z (Jason Lewis) in order to swap places with a DEA agent being held hostage. However, at the exchange site things begin to unravel and alliances are questioned. Tim must continue the charade if he wants to live. But who can he trust? This is a grade B action flick that Walker and Fishburne should've passed on. Maybe times were tough and a gig is a gig? However, I seriously doubt that this movie helped either career. Walker is still toting his surfer boy accent, which is actually getting a bit irritating 10 years after Meet The Deedles. I'm just waiting for him to remake Point Break, which I do believe he would be perfect in. He can't be much worse than Keanu Reeves now can he?

Watch It: If you want to see cameos by some UFC fighters.

Skip It: Because Chuck Liddell is wasted way too fast.
