Summary: YOUR AVERAGE GHETTO COMEDY MOVIE
Review: A CONVICT [BRIAN HOOKS] IS RELEASED FROM PRISON. HOWEVER, HE'S BEEN PLACED UNDER THE THREE STRIKES RULE AND HE'S ALREADY WENT TO JAIL TWICE! WHEN HE'S PICKED UP BY HIS HOMEBOY, HIS HOMEBOY GETS INTO A SHOOTOUT WITH THE COPS AND NOW THE COPS ARE ALSO AFTER HIM AGAIN! UNFORTUNATELY FOR THIS MOVIE, THE FUNNY MOMENTS TEND TO BE SCARCE. BRIAN HOOKS IS OK, BUT THIS MOVIE COULD'VE USED FUNNIER CHARACTERS AS WELL AS A BETTER SCRIPT. LOOK AT ''FRIDAY'' INSTEAD.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: No Stars
Review: All it takes is 15 seconds of the trailer to figure out everything that's wrong with this movie. As I screened the preview, two crucial facts are known: 1) there's a disturbing abundance of crude ghetto jokes, and 2) this film was financed by MGM, which is not exactly known for releasing record-breaking boxoffice hits. So, there you have it. Based on that information, "Three Strikes" merits 0 stars. Yer out!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: too hilirious

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A Comedy??
Review: For a comedy, it sure isn't funny. There's no substance to the movie; it doesn't even try. Just a 90 minute waste of time. If you watch it, you'll see why. It's a wanna be Friday, but is really, really bad.

Summary: 3 Strikes
Review: How N'Bushe Wright could go from co-starring in Blade with Wesley Snipes to another stereotypical garbage filled black comedy is beyond me !

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny movie with funny actors
Review: I don't understand why this movie was dissed so hard by the other reviewers. I saw a lot of people write that they were offended by the movie. I guess if you're offended extremely easily, don't see it. But if you like a funny movie to just watch and chill out to check it out. Faizon Love and Brian Hooks were the funniest.

Summary: One of Brian Hooks best.
Review: I guess this is one of those movies that either you get it or you dont. I enjoyed this movie very much, it left me in stitches. I dont know why it got dissed so hard. As for the people complaining about it black exploitation...... get a grip its comedy not a dramma. Its the 2k decade if we cant laugh at ourselves who can we laugh at?!! I think you can sit back with ya girl or chill with ya man and get a good laugh out of this movie. Thats why I give it 5 stars.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This is truly black exploitation
Review: I just wish I could give this...0 stars. As a fan of the 1970s era of filmmaking commonly referred to as Blaxploitation, I am always bothered by the fact that so many misinformed people refer to all of these films as exploitation films... This film is loaded with ridiculous stereotypes and negative images. 3 Strikes is NOT funny, it is buffoonery at its best (or worse, depending on how you see a thing)... 3 Strikes is simply awful!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Total BOMB!!!
Review: I've never seen any other film that disgusted me, this is truly the worst film of 2000 next to " Battlefield Earth" and " Screwed".

It's about some two time loser who had two strikes in L.A. now goes back to the streets and if he gets a third strike then he will be in Prison.

I'm not into these hip-hop comedys but i had the mistake of renting this travesty, it's racist and unfunny, you've been warned.
