Against The Law
81 minutes (15) Warner
Director: Jim Wynorski
review by Rob Marshall
From the director of recent SF actioner, Storm Trooper,
this offbeat crime drama sees Richard (Teen Agent) Grieco acting out his
cowboy gunslinger fantasies on a cop-killing spree in modern LA. Nick Mancuso plays
the middle-aged metro detective who becomes wild man Grieco's target following a
heroic shootout with vicious gangs. A two-tone script contrasts the villain's
singular quest for media stardom with the troubled cop's more complex response to
urban violence. Not really a film with much honest social comment in spite of its
intriguing premise, Against The Law is nonetheless an entertaining hour.
