(I kid you not. If you&#8217;re old enough, you&#8217;ll recognize the name.) Like Andy Griffith, Dillion has one Deputy to assist him.\u00a0 They are the law in a little Texas town.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A small motorcycle gang, barely large enough to be called a crowd, plans to rob an armored truck carrying 15 million dollars to be deposited in the town&#8217;s bank.\u00a0 It will be up to Marshall Dillion and his deputy to stop them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I wanted to like <em>Disturbing the Peace<\/em>.\u00a0 Guy Pearce is a good actor.\u00a0 The plot was perfect for a low budget film.\u00a0 I was hoping for something along the lines of Tom Laughlin in <em>The Born Losers<\/em>.\u00a0 What I got was a real mess.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The story goes off the rails.\u00a0 For a lot of the film, Marshall Dillion and his deputy are running from place to place watching the bad guys take hostages or worse.\u00a0 When Dillion finally decides to get a gun, he has to run home. He then stares at his pistol for an eternity before finally picking it up. Dillion captures one of the gang members and puts him in jail.\u00a0 Dillion learns that the gangbanger was a former marine and tells him, &#8220;So was I.&#8221;\u00a0 Dillion then opens the cell, hands him a rifle and turns his back on him!\u00a0 Just like that the former gang member is now ready to go against his motorcycle brothers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Then when Dillion and the gang member, both armed with rifles, come up against a guy with a handgun, they retreat!\u00a0 It gets even worse.\u00a0 The gang leader, Diablo (Sawa) fires a machine gun at Dillion as he walks down the center of an empty street.\u00a0 Dillion isn&#8217;t even wounded.\u00a0 We also get the classic: Dillon on a horse exchanging gunfire with Diablo on a motorcycle and then the horse catching the motorcycle!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With all that said, you&#8217;d probably think that<em> Disturbing the Peace<\/em> would earn one star.\u00a0 It nearly did,\u00a0 Still, I made it through the film so I&#8217;m barely rating it a two.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: var(--text-color); font-family: var(--text-font); font-size: inherit;\"><i>Disturbing the Peace<\/i>\u00a0earns 2 of 5 stars.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/stallonezone.com\/zone\/logo\/zview_d.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"100\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/stallonezone.com\/zone\/2022\/z090822zview_disturbingthepeace2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"206\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Disturbing the Peace (2020) Director: Chuck Hustmyre Screenplay by:\u00a0 Jay Simms Starring: Guy Pearce, Devon Sawa and Branscombe Richmond Tagline:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":912,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,51,54,74],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30476","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-celebs","category-crime","category-movies","category-z-view"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30476","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/912"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=30476"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30476\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30477,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30476\/revisions\/30477"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=30476"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=30476"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=30476"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
