No Code Of Conduct (1998)


No Code Of Conduct (1998)-* *

Directed by: Bret Michaels

Starring: Charlie Sheen, Martin Sheen, Mark Dacascos, Joe Lando, Courtney Gains, Joe Estevez, and Bret Michaels












From the mind of the man who invented the song "Unskinny Bop" comes "No Code Of Conduct", his second directorial effort after A Letter From Death Row.

"Charles" Sheen as he liked to be called for 2 years (1997- to early 1999) was okay in this film. He plays a Cop On The Edge. He drinks too much and spends little time with his family etc. His father Martin is in it and plays a nothing role as his father. Joe Estevez of Money To Burn fame plays a helpful mechanic. The editing is very silly because there's always a "whoosh" sound before the scene starts. This was a lot better than 'Letter. So maybe Michaels is learning on the job as a director. We eagerly await his third feature and if current trends prevail, it should star Jonathan Bon Jovi or Franklin Muniz.

'Code is worth-seeing for "Charles", and also whatever happened for to Joe Lando? It seemed like in the 90s he was competing with Kevin Sorbo to be mainstream meatheads with similar names. I think we all know who won that battle...or do we?

A Letter From Death Row (1998)


A Letter From Death Row (1998) -*

Directed By: Bret Michaels

Starring: Bret Michaels, Charlie Sheen, and Martin Sheen










I'm sorry to say this, but A Letter From Death Row is, unfortunately, awful.

Michael Raine (Michaels) is accused of killing his girlfriend and is put on death row. He starts to think about how he can save his life.

This movie is a nightmare to watch. Michaels can't direct or edit at all. There's one scene in the beginning where he does karate moves in front of a mirror and all these color effects and strobe lights start killing your sense of vision. Let's talk about his acting skills: Why? Charlie (Or Charles as he liked to called during 1997-1999) and Martin Sheen drop by to light their dignity on fire.

Michaels made another movie in 1998: No Code Of Conduct. It's a million times better than this.


I think all copies of "A Letter From Death Row" should be executed immediately.
