There are not many actors who are as prolific as Samuel L Jackson . At the latest count he's appeared in 195 movies . That's Busy !
One Eight Seven Is one of his lesser well known movies . I certainly don't remember is from 1997 .
Samuel L. Jackson, plays a Los Angeles teacher caught with gang trouble in an urban high school. The film's name comes from the California Penal Code Section 187, which defines murder.
Although this is very cliched, I quite liked this. Sure , the kids don't look like kids and you have to wonder, if they are as bad as portrayed, why are they turning up for school? All that aside , I enjoyed the performances and I found it a surprise when Garfield started to go all vigilante on us.
I've read criticism about the conclusion but I liked it , especially because it pays homage to the brilliant Dear Hunter . Also I love films that don't have a slushy happy ending .
