It is not just because Ja Rule is in this film, and also Kurupt, but also because there is a good amount of songs from The Inc on the soundtrack, and also other stuff from non-Murder Inc performers. I have not really been keeping up with this lately, but because I have plans to write about the Murder Inc compilations in February, I figured that this would be a good place to start.

What I remember most about this movie is her unbelievable beauty and the sexy outfit she dressed in throughout the film. Soap star Nia Peeples as “49er six” is hot. Morris Chestnut, however, is good as the villain “49er One” in the film downplaying his menace and manages to deliver the bad lines very well. Congratulations to her for over-acting her part to the point where it becomes laughable. There’s also the bossy agent (Claudia Christian) who communicates with the mercenaries attempting to bargain with them. The writer never attempt to conjure an even slightly original or interesting character to remember, exposing almost every cliche in the book from the stringy short wisecracking African American prisoner known as Twitch (rapper Kurupt), to the tough and stereotypical hispanic warden known as El Fuego (Tony Plana) who scoffs and scowls with a smug expression and mutters Spanish words into his English sentence in every bit of dialogue spoken. The characters are about as trite and one-dimensional as Seagal’s acting. The two are supposed to be friends for many years except they have zero chemistry and their delivery of their lines are cheesy, off-beat, and completely awkward. The two headliners: fake action star Steven Seagal (who gained about fifty pounds since his first film) and rapper Ja Rule (who is one of the worst actors I’ve ever seen) really make “Half Past Dead” a grueling experience. Wow, those FBI agents sure are dedicated to their work. What’s awful is that when Sasha reveals to Nick he’s an undercover FBI agent, he explains: “I was busted with you and would do time to gain your trust.” His sentence was five years. The prison is supposed to be state of the art and advanced but there’s a shockingly low head count when it comes to prisoners (I counted twenty-five). The prison is re-opened due to overcrowding and it’s supposedly advanced but shockingly stone age. I got the sense this is supposed to be a futuristic film, but there’s never truly verification. Now they must team up with other prisoners and beat the mercenaries before they kill everyone. After being busted in a car theft ring, two gangster friends Nick (rapper Ja Rule) and Sasha (Steven Seagal) are jailed in New Alcatraz prison where mercenaries break in and storm the prison to hold a prisoner ransom who knows the location of a secret stash of over two hundred million dollars in gold. This is like the action masterpiece “The Rock”, except for the fact that “The Rock” was original, and this is just as awful as anything I’ve ever seen.
