For DJ's Rooster (Mark Tonderai), CJ (David Oyelowo), Jess (Nathan
Constance) & Chang (Crunski) the shit really seems to be going down: Rooster
finds himself having fucked up deals with both druglord Jesus (Gary Kempo)
& pornking Tunde (Geff Francis), Jess figures he needs a car to impress
cute but (in his eyes) rich Mina (Rebecca Hazlewood), CJ catches his girlfriend
Kelly (Melanie Blatt) giving her ex Curtis (Jonah Russell) a handjob (though
she claims a handjob is nothing sexual) & thus dumps her, & furthermore
catches his mom performing on a porn tape, & Chang wants to take custody of
his daughter Chantelle (Parhys-Jai
Cato), whose mother (Mandy Newton) has turned their home into a
drug-den - plus all four are continuously denied entrance into their favourite
club by an arrogant bouncer (Ricky Gervais). To solveall of their problems,
they figure they need money - a commodity they happen not to have. Even their
attempt to let their manager Clint (Stewart Wright) sell their decks falls
flat, & when Clint hires them for a gig, the whole thing ends in a riot in
which the four lose all their records, too (& what's a DJ without decks
& records ?). So Chang & CJ, to improve the cashflow, decide to
dognap the dog of tv-personality Edith Scarman (Dilys
Laye) & hold the pooch for ransom - a stupid idea in itself,
made all the worse by the fact that they break into the wrong house &
abduct the beloved dog of druglord Jesus, who will stop at nothing to get his
dog back ... whicvh is bad enough as it is, made all the worse by the fact that
CJ accidently kills the dog - & Jesus is able to identify them from a
surveillance tape ... & when our foursome thinks to be in a safe
hidingplace, CJ gives their whereabouts away to his ex Kelly (who's pretty mad
at him because he made her kill her dog), who knows nothing better to do
than spill the beans to her ex, handjob-Curtis, who happens to be one of Jesus'
securtiy guards ... Taking all that into account, Jesus lets our quartet off
relatively easy, forcing them to be his drug couriers ... but Rooster has had
enough, & together with their friends Raj (Pal Aron) & Phil (Alan
Davies), they plan a setup for Jesus, going to his place bugged &
blackmailing Jesus with the tape ... which goes totally ust when Phil (on the
outside) has forgotten to press record on his recorder, & Raj goes into
Jesus' mansion posing as Tunde ... a short time before the real Tunde shows up
too ... & then Jesus has of cozurse taken Chantelle, Chang's daughter,
hostage ... Somehow though, Rootster, CJ, Chang, & Jess come out of all
the mix-up on top when the police comes in just in time, & while getting
away, Jesus is run over by a truck ... Furthermore, our heroes have nicked
enough drug-money to fulfill all their wishes, including buying their favourite
club ... that doesn't mean though that the bouncer would now let them in ... Black
humour aplenty in this comedy, that - despite many darker edges - never loses
its light-footedness & manages to keep the story stringent despite four
seperate plot-threads that only join up eventually. Great fun !
