Underrated crime flick... Jeff Goldbum was great in this flick as well kicking dudes out of moving cars and shyt.

double entendre.. the guy used in the smiley is actually the guy who directed both movies. Bill Duke.

I think Jeff Goldblum is usually a terrible actor, but he was actually good in this.
acquired taste would be more accurate have u seen the fly?





ps loved deep cover and always outnumbered, lawrence has a weird place in cinema history. He has a slew of great performances/impeccable vocals but not a particularly likeable presence. Could never keep a straight face at the toilet scene in deepcover :pachaha:

Great movie, great performances. Fishburne puts in some amazing work. This scene right here is smart as hell, Duke needs more recognition for his directing work.
