SORT OF A SECOND COMING OF ''BOYZ N THE HOOD''
THREE LATINO FRIENDS FACE DIFFERENT OBSTACLES IN LOS ANGELES. GOOD ACTING AND A VERY VERY CONVINCING STORY PUTS THIS A CUT ABOVE MANY OF THE OTHER GANGSTA MOVIES THAT'RE CURRENTLY DOWN AT THE VIDEO STORE RIGHT NOW. THIS MIGHT EVEN BE ABLE TO COMPARE TO ''BOYZ N THE HOOD'', WHICH I CAN'T SAY FOR MANY OF THE OTHER HOOD MOVIES THAT'RE OUT TODAY. THIS IS DEFINITELY WORTH RENTING OR BETTER YET, WORTH OWNING. I ADVISE ALL HOOD MOVIE FANATICS TO GET THIS MOVIE THE NEXT TIME THEY GO TO A VIDEO STORE. YOU'LL BE VERY VERY SUPRISED LIKE I WAS.

Sadly Overlooked
I didn't know what to expect when I bought this movie. It was one of those spur of the moment things where I saw it on the clearance rack at the corner store retailing for a whopping $... I figured I had nothing to lose, and I was right.

Road Dogz is an excellent film. It is filled with humor, drama, suspense, and morals. Some things that stood out to me in particular were the dialogue and the scene settings. They were so realistic for the movie. It made me feel like I knew the characters. I couldn't help but reminisce on some of the same conversations I had with my friends growing up.

If you think this is just a Spanish version of Boyz N The Hood, you are sadly mistaken. This movie stands on its own and powerfully delivers. At least make it a rental. You won't be disappointed.
