Plot Summary
Empire is a powerful, gripping action-thriller featuring John Leguizamo in a riveting performance the Los Angeles Times hails as "superb." "One of the best performances of the year!" The gritty streets of the South Bronx meet the white-collar world of Wall Street in Empire, a hard-hitting story about the pursuit of fast money and the high price of greed. Featuring Denise Richards, Isabella Rossellini and rap superstars Fat Joe and Treach, Empire is a high-intensity, urban thrill-ride!

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Leaves no cliche unturned; it's Old Jack City.
Rotten: A yawningly familiar melodrama about an enterprising hustler who's undone by his own ambitions.
Rotten: Tries to pass off a scattered, cliched approximation of the real deal.
Rotten: The movie's action unfolds laboriously before us, dragged along, bumpety-bumpety, by the plodding voiceover that Leguizamo has the misfortune of delivering.

Errrr
Good movie a classic
Great movie!
I love this movie will never get bored of this movie
Real Life of the everyday NYC hustler trying to get out.
Water down, yet focus on what matters. John is smart realistic and real like it is.
