But... Unfortunately I didn't and stuck around for the remaining 59 minutes.Ready To Die is a classic Notorious BIG album, but Ready 2 Die (with a oh so clever change from the word 'to' to the number 2 instead, to signify this movie is 'hood' if there was any doubters who'd think otherwise, because that's how they do it in the hood, spell words wrong and type numbers that could replace words etc) will never become a classic... Anything... Not even a classic Asylum movie.TBH, I don't think Asylum actually financed this movie cause it feels and looks really low budget, and considering how low budget Asylum's usual movies are you know how ridiculously low budget this must be right?I think it's safe to say that they spend more money on getting a cool poster than they did on (trying but failing) to make a cool movie.The movie is basically a deadly game of hide and seek about a group of robbers trying to hide with their new found wealth from gang-bangers with guns trying to steal their riches (how dare they?) and cops with arrest- warrants.That might sound like fun, but it really isn't, and the acting is terrible, sure the actors might look the part with most of the cast playing moral-free latino gang-bangers, some to the point where I wonder if they didn't hire real gang-bangers in some of the roles... Cause they sure enough didn't hire real actors.Fun fact: the f-word is used 187 times... per scene.I mean I've seen Noel G in other movies where he was alright but not in this one though.Yeah don't waste your time with this one, it's not worth it.To paraphrase Jay-Z: "Like I told you to watch Ready 2 Die, No... Hov did that, so hopefully you don't have to go through that"

If it wasn't for, agreed, the cool-looking getaway car Ready 2 Die would have had no redeeming values at all. It could have been fun if done right, in the end it just ended up being unpleasant and ineptly done. The scenery and lighting look dull and the effects are cheesy and rather amateurish, but the camera work and editing do them no favours. In fact, the movie's visual look was one of its biggest flaws, it is shot so cheaply and in such a rushed way that it is enough to make one feel nauseous. The dialogue is riddled with clichés, doesn't even try to make sense and is horrendously stilted, the constant joking at horrible things like shooting people in the face were I feel in very bad taste. The story and characters are a huge issue as well. The story has no fun, excitement, suspense, momentum or any sense of danger, instead it's plodding, predictable and tasteless with very little happening in the storytelling, events that you can smell a mile off and the joking that makes you hate the characters more. The characters are incredibly shallow and you never get to know or identify with them, instead they are very obnoxious and have no redeeming qualities(no humanity at all seemingly) at all basically. They are also so similar that even figuring out who is who and who's the main one is difficult. The acting are a painful mix of annoying over-acting and some not even trying, it's not worth bothering naming standouts because there's not a single good performance among the cast. You know that's something wrong when the getaway car upstages the lot of them. The direction is on par with the camera work in ineptness, particularly in the action scenes which are incoherent and lacking in pretty much everything. The music is at best forgettable and is often repetitive and overbearing. All in all, apart from the car there is next to nothing good about Ready 2 Die, there are worse movies around, but that is no consolation and certainly no excuse for this level of badness. 2/10 Bethany Cox

So I saw a decent rating on this film om IMDb and thought to myself "Hey, it is only 80 minutes long and sounds interesting...why not?" HUGE MISTAKE!!!! This movie has so many Grand Theft Auto clichés that I truly think the writers of the movie/script played the game while coming up with material. Stereotypical thugs rob banks and flee from the police but at no time do they seem to be worried/threatened. Word gets out about the money they have. The dialogue is BEYOND horrible. Junior high kids talk about better things. Shot on a low budget with low expectations.The only reason why it gets a 2 is because the getaway car is pretty cool. The camera work sucks The acting looks worse than a junior high school play. They did manage to have a few explosions but even those looked cheezy.At no point in time do you feel any sympathy for the "good guys" (use that term loosely, after all, they brag about shooting innocent women). I found myself hoping they would get killed just so it would be OVER! After 60 minutes of watching, I literally was laughing at how horrible the plot was and why the hell I was still watching. If you make it that far, you deserve some kind of award.AVOID!

I was looking for a new crime filled movie (lets admit it gangster flicks are always a blast) when I stumbled across Ready 2 Die. The plot is pretty straight forward with a bank robbery gone wrong as they are trying to get somewhere safe after stealing quite a load of money. Of course the cops are after them as you would expect but to top that off they also have to avoid rival gang members who want the money for themselves. The characters within aren't people you are going to necessarily like but if you love to watch people getting away with (quite literally) murder this is a joyride you aren't going to want to get off of. The plot is a pretty standard robbery flick with a low budget but but the action really stood out as gritty and fun. Honestly the budget is what hurt this film as if the filmmakers had more to put into the effects I really could see this as something that could stand out. As it is if you are in the mood for some pure violent fun this one would be worth your time!
