Great thriller
This is one of my favorite movies. It's a thriller and both Alyssa and Justin do an excellent job in it. It's exciting and keeps you on the edge of your seat. The villains are kind of funny, in an evil way. It has some twists and the background to the story is really great, the setting is a mansion of a family who has a great artwork collection. There are no real extra's on this but it's an independent film and you don't really need them.

NICE LITTLE ACTION FILM WITH A CLEVER ENDING
DANIEL [JUSTIN THEROUX], WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND [ALYSSA MILANO] VISITS HIS FAMILY FOR THANKSGIVING. BUT DURING DINNER, A VICIOUS GANG OF THIEVES [LED BY ICE-T] BREAK INTO THE HOUSE, KILL OFF DANIEL'S FAMILY, AND STEALS HIS FAMILY'S ART. BEING THAT DANIEL AND HIS GIRLFRIEND ARE TRAPPED IN THE BASEMENT, THEY MUST FIND A WAY TO ELIMINATE THE KILLERS. NOTHING SPECIAL, BUT IT'S AN OK LITTLE ACTIONER. WHAT HAPPENS IN THE END IS TRULY SHOCKING.

Body Count Is A Great Suspence and Action Film.
I rented this movie and I thought it was one of the best movies that I had ever seen. It's a great action film with an all-star cast that keeps wondering what's going to happen next. It is definitely one that I have to add to my movie collection. ... Read more

Painfully bad acting!
I bought this DVD actually thinking I was buying a different movie that I loved a few years ago. Besides the disappointment that it wasn't the movie I thought it was. STILL, the acting is just plain BAD. Ice-T was even a terrible actor in this film. And I like Ice-T as an actor! 95% of this film takes place in an abandoned warehouse and just drags on and on. The plot is so simple, how can anyone screw it up? BAD ACTING! Don't waste your time. Unless you have too much time on your hands...

More Perry! More Perry!
I'm here today reviewing the Hiest starring one of today's leading action moguls Mr. Luke Perry. Put it up! Yes kids I'm back, they tried to silence old Donny Mac here but I'm here to stay this time. Ok lets get down to business. The Hiest encompesses all the needs of an action movie; Luke Perry, Ice-T, and some others which will remain nameless. Never before have I been so drawn to an action flick since the likes of Death Ring. Perry graced the screen in rare form this time. Never has his washed up, ungroomed self performed on this level. Well he had some amazing moments on 90210, yeah don't act like you don't watch it. If you appreciate Perry's constant whispering, then The Hiest will lay it down for you like never before. Also we were lucky enough to see Ice-T in yet another B classic. This man deserves some kind of recognition from the academy. He's on the cover of almost every new action release in the video store, he's in 90% of all B movies of today. But of course he won't wim an award from the academy. These are the same clowns that have kept Don Swayze and Chad Mcqueen out of the Hollywood "Spotlight." Well no matter how currupt the acedemy is Donny Mac isn't. I'm a give it to you straight. 5 cans of...never mind you people wouldn't get it, so lets say 5 stars for the non stop Perry in The Hiest. Rent it, buy it, do somethin to let Luke know you still care. Well kids Don has to get going now, the bill collector is at the door and I've gotta sneak out the back window. See you real soon, no matter what your friends tell you.

Unexpectedly good movie.
Ice T and Luke Perry and David Faustino are in this movie where a money transport truck gets stolen and taken to a warehouse. One of the crooks had 'arranged' an ice-cream truck to transfer the loot in. Everyone is starting to distrust each other. This movie has suspense, action and a couple real funny moments. ... Read more
