This was a good movie minus Marc Anthony. Come on now, Marc Anthony playing a gangster. The fool barely can sing. His acting in this movie was terrible.

And you know this Mayne (Smokey from Friday)

He is right up their with his wife, Jennifer Lopez. She can also just barely act. Yet the $$$ keep rolling in for them... Bleh

I think Marc Anthony was perfect for the role of Juan Lacas. Youthful leader of the K.O.D. and just played his part well.

Yes, I think he was pretty convincing. And really OP, he can barely sing? Now his style may not be for everyone but he definitely can sing.

I thin he did a fantastic job in this film. Then again, I think he's an excellent singer, so what do I know?

I thought Marc Anthony was TERRIBLE! He couldn't act, I hated all his lines, his expressions.. UGH and that ugly face of his. He looked like a skinny little rat too. They should have cast someone else as Juan IMO.

I think he is a very good actor and singer.
