Average Rating: 
Rating:  - A Very Funny and Watchable Movie
If you're a "Jamerican" living in Los Angeles, who feels strange about American "hip-hop" culture, you will find this film both amusing and entertaining. "Rude Boy" was made in the tradition of previous Jamaican crime dramas, such as "The Harder They Come," but this film takes itself a lot less seriously. The film is interpolated with comedic moments, such as the tough talk delivered by the overweight, Suge Knight-inspired crime kingpin "Biggs," but the film also stays true to the Jamaican crime ...

Rating:  - IF IT WASN'T 4 BEENIE MAN & MICH "THE BEAR" TALLIFERRO I WOULD'VE GAVE IT 1 STAR! THIS IS LIKE KLASH!

I GAVE IT A 3 NOT BECAUSE I LIKE IT -JUST BECAUSE OF BEENIE MAN & MICH "THE BEAR" TALIFERRO (IN FACT THEY'RE THE REASON I GOT IT)!

Rating:  - If i could i would give it 1/2 stars
This movie is the worst Jamaican movie ever. It makes Top Shottas look like Scarface. The "story", "acting" an "action scenes" were all laughable. If your a real fan of Jamaican films save your money or invest it in "Smile Orange", "The Harder They Come", "Third World Cop" or "Dancehall Queen" or even "Top Shotta".
Rating: - I hope future anthropologists don't judge us for this
This film would reflect poorly on Jamaican cinema, but it was mostly filmed in the United States so West Indians can sleep easy knowing it's not their fault. This is a remarkably bad movie in concept and execution from all aspects save the soundtrack.
The film follows the story of Julius (Mark Danvers) an aspiring musician and mass murderer. Emigrating to the United States as a mule for a Suge Knightesque fellow, he immediately is frustrated by an employer who demands that he actually work ... Read More
Rating:  - HAS SOME DECENT ACTING, BUT...
A REGGAE MUSICIAN BEGINS TO DEAL DRUGS FOR A DRUG KINGPIN SO HE COULD GET THE MONEY FOR STUDIO TIME. HAS A DECENT PLOT, BUT MOST OF THE ACTING ISN'T GOOD, AND MOST OF THE CHARACTERS WERE JUST CLICHED CHARCTERS THAT YOU'D USUALLY SEE A JAMAICAN ACTOR PLAY. I DO AGREE THAT THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF THINGS TO LAUGH AT WHEN WATCHING THIS MOVIE. NOT THE WORST OF ITS KIND, BUT, I DON'T THINK ITS REALLY WORTH BUYING.
