Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

jon-keller I think that tall goofy looking soldier was a fine example of what our United States Military can provide the movie business. I will buy everything that Jack Bednarcik ever appears in!!!!Marv Mullins out-shined Joe Estevez with his trademark snarl. Never has a silent presence filled the small screen the way his did.There is only one word for this film and that is FANTASTIC, because the fans who were in the movie were actually better than the actors.I only wish that when George ran away we could have seen what actually happened to him.I want to kill people!!!!-Jon

rclower-1 One can never accuse "Fatal Justice" of being high art. Believe me, I was there. But it was a riot to work on nonetheless. Brother Kneumsi was right. Shreveport was indeed a great party town to be making a no-budget movie in. We particularly enjoyed our stay at the Blind Tiger and pushed the screenwriter to add some more bar scenes. Anything to avoid working outdoors in the summer heat. Too bad the DVD doesn't include the behind the scenes footage I still have. You'll miss the entire crew falling down drunk running through the halls of the local Motel 8 at 2 am, knocking on doors and fleeing, giggling like we're in junior high. Yeah, keep your mega-million dollar budgets. The "B" movie life is the way to fly.

Kneumsi Somehow this film recently was released on DVD with a suggestive box cover. Please don't be fooled. This is not a great action movie or even a sexy movie. In fact the female version of Rambo on the cover scarcely even resembles the female lead.This film is the only movie I have seen that features a sex scene between two "actors" who are wearing visible Boxer Shorts and are careful to keep their pelvises a full three feet away from each other.Interestingly enough this film also features a car chase that begins with one set of cars, and ends with a completely different set... No, the characters don't trade cars halfway through, the "producers" couldn't get the same cars on another day, but didn't bother to fix it.I can say this, the movie was filmed mostly in and around Shreveport, Louisiana, which is a great party town to be in, so if you recognize any parts of the film from your drunken stupor, you're in for that slice of fun. Hey, I gazed up at that building after "last call" at the Kisatchie. Hey, didn't I travel over that bridge after I left the Blind Tiger to head to another bar?Also, the great stage actor Mr. Richard Folmer does make an appearance in this film, and he far outshines the leads, including Estevez. He gives a great turn as a "Company" bad man, but wasn't given a whole lot to work with unfortunately. It would be a true shame if such a great actor is remembered for a turkey like this rather than his exceptional stage work! It is unfortunate that in spite of the fact that he portrays a villain so well, you find yourself rooting for him much quicker than you would the wholly unsympathetic "heroes."In short, avoid the movie completely, or, if you wish, rent the film, fast forward to the scenes featuring Richard Folmer, and forget the rest. You won't be missing a thing!

rmorris-1 This B movie tops my list of greatest films in the 1990's.Who would of thought that $25,000.00 and a couple of beers could produce such results.Many cheers for the beloved trainees from Shreveport. Hey, "I want to kill... people" too.Go grab some pizza and a bottle of "Jack" and have a great time with your friends, if you have any.As for myself, this is a must see at least once a year tradition. Watch out Blind Tiger, here I come!
