So there's an immediate red flag when it comes to the movie '3 Strikes.' You could even call it a strike, if you will. For one, it's written and directed by a guy named DJ Pooh. No joke. His name is DJ Pooh. While he's had a good career beyond this movie, the fact remains that his name is DJ Pooh. That's just not something I can't get past.
This movie is about a guy who has 2 strikes against him, so if he were to get one more criminal conviction, he'd go to prison for life. It's a very controversial policy, and this movie set out to take that policy on. Surprise, it's neither a good indictment of the three strikes penalty, nore is it all that good. Not even comedy legend Mo'Nique can make this movie good.
