"Third World Cop" is a 1999 Jamaican action-crime film starring Paul Campbell, directed by Chris Browne and produced by Chris Blackwell of Island Jamaica Films. It is considered one of the better films to come out of the Caribbean and inherits the legacy of Jimmy Cliff's "The Harder They Come". It was a mainstay in Jamaican movie theaters for several years after its initial release.

Plot synopsis

Capone (Paul Campbell), a loose-cannon cop, returns back to his home in Kingston to join the island nation's special forces. Immediately upon return, Capone discovers an operation consisting of illegal importation of guns via church charities. It's up to Capone to stop the importation of these guns; and this might mean going up against one of his childhood friends.
