Any way you spell it, DMX means bad

Dan

It’s obvious that rap stars make good actors. If the work of Ice Cube , Ice-T and Snoop Dogg doesn’t convince you, then what Sean “P. Diddy” Combs did in “Monster’s Ball” should. So, then, how do you explain DMX ? This guy has more screen presence than many established stars, and he’s actually quite good in his new film “Never Die Alone.” Too bad the film does in movie terms what a sump pump does mechanically. His character, a drug dealer named “King” David who seems not to know a single world longer than four letters , is afraid of dying in the gutter. Funny. That’s exactly where the film belongs.
