Waist Deep

Nice tag on this film if I do say "Bonnie and Clyde-on the flip side". Yet another film about life in "the hood" this one had me excited because it stars The Game. Sadly, it is a hip-hop star who goes by The Game and not the wrestler Triple H. No matter, this game is one nasty motherfucker to say the least, running around hacking hands off here and there and just being an all around miserable prick which is perfect for the villain here. From the get go I wasn't expecting much and I must say it was a head scratcher to see just how well this film is directed. The acting is above par as we have Tyrese Gibson and Larenz Tate, both vets by now and actress Meagan Good who we've seen in tons of things including the just released ONE MISSED CALL. The acting coupled with some interesting camera work and rapid fire pacing make this one highly entertaining piece of work even if the ending leaves a tad bit to be desired. Doubt you'll see this on TMN anytime soon but well worth a look if it's on your specialty movie channel
