Three Strikes WOOf! 2000 (R)

Two time loser Rob is released from jail deter mined to stay straight and thus avoid the harsh sentencing of California's “Three Strikes” law. But as luck, and a lame script filled with fart jokes and little esle would have it, his buddy picks him up from jail in a stolen car and promptly gets in a gun fight with the cops. On the run from the police and gang members, Rob tries to find a way to clear himself and get home. There's not much to redeem this disaster of a flick, unless you find embarrassingly stereotypical characters and “In Living Color” refect jokes amusing. 83m/C VHS, DVD .
