Movie Reviews of Deep Cover
Movie Review: One of Larry's best early lead performances of the nineties
Summary: 4 Stars
Deep Cover is Fish's third best performances of the early nineties behind Boyz N The Hood and What's Love Got To Do With It. The character he plays in Deep Cover is a smooth cop who gets in over his head when he goes undercover. Jeff Goldblum makea great bad guy and the direction by Bill Duke was also very good following A Rage In Harlem from a year earlier.
Summary of Deep Cover
Bill Duke (A Rage in Harlem) directed this edgy action yarn that stretches the barriers of the genre. It explores the fine line between good and evil, while testing the resolve of a moral man seduced by an easier, more pleasurable lifestyle. Although the plot eventually becomes too overblown and earnest, Deep Cover proves far more intelligent than the average action pic. Laurence Fishburne is the straight-arrow undercover cop who gets so far into his assumed identity that he has trouble recognizing the good guys from the bad. The characters, all flawed, are fleshed out and believable as they face their decisions with questions and doubt, unlike most in this genre. Jeff Goldblum provides smarmy comic relief as an eccentric mid-level drug dealer/attorney who is probably a psychopath and most definitely paving his path to hell. --Rochelle O'GormanA cop with the psychological profile of a criminal goes undercover and finds himself caught up in his criminal life.
