Gangster tale Shottas feels like a Jamaican "Scarface," offering a vivid slice of the underground street culture of Kingston. Still, the violence is senseless and the plot full of holes, including the final scene, in which two drug lords somehow have no security outside their residence as they're attacked by their rivals. Exec produced by rapper Wyclef Jean, who also produced the soundtrack, pic might click with young urban fans fascinated by Jamaican rude boy culture. - Walter Dawkins
