Did anyone notice that every time Ja Rule was in a Fight or action scene he was thrown around like a rag doll! I mean 1 punch would send him flipping in the air or flying backwards......it was ridiculous yet entertaining as well

most actors that star along side action people like segal r usually made to look weaker. and so tossin ja round like a rag doll gave the illusion that segal was so much better. i adore ja i cant wait for him 2 do more movies

Yeah, right you are. But remember "Exit Wounds": DMX was fighting almost as hard as good old Seagal, and this movie was GREAT!
Kickin' Ja Rule arround was kind of ok when he fought against the warder, but in my opinion, Ja Rule should kill the evil bit** in his second fight scene.
He has no big fight, tust no big victory in the whole film - that's kind of disapointing!

ja rule was truly disturbingly awful acting wise, a true embarrasment. Of all the rrappers I have seen in movies he was by far the worst, at the end of the movie you dont know if u gonna laugh or cry

That was one of the reasons I love this flick! It's just so...BAD that it's actually hilarious to watch.
When Ja Rule goes flying into the hood of that car in the begining and just bounces right up. Comedic masterpiece.

I am late, but I noticed this as well. He was being flung around so hard. And the stunt doubles looked nothing like him. I was like, 'Is this movie supposed to be a parody?' Because it was so ridiculous.

What I always thought was strange about it was that Ja Rule is known for his street thug, gangsta rapper image; that of a street tough who is a criminal, brawler, killer, etc. and then he goes a does a movie where he not only gets beaten up constantly (and by women), by just gets thrown and whipped around like a child. It was hilarious.
