Tribune arts critic2½ stars (out of four) Gangster pictures and their contemporary gangsta-picture brethren can get away with murder as long as they placate the right people en route to the bank.

'Get Rich or Die Tryin'
Times Staff WriterNothing encapsulates "Get Rich or Die Tryin' " better than the notorious billboard image of star Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson with a gun in one hand and a microphone in the other.

Movie review, 'National Security'
Martin Lawrence and Steve Zahn play mismatched buddy-cops in "National Security," and jiving and snarling and trash-talking all over each other, they generate enough comic tension and mayhem to jump-start this mass of action-comedy cliches into a fairly...Tags: Dennis Dugan, Steve Zahn, Martin Lawrence, Death, Eric Roberts
