5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant movie is all I need say..... 11 May 2004
By "rajtewari"
Format:DVD
I watched the film DEEP COVER and wanted to recommend this film to anyone who is into a film that has brilliant acting by main players and supporting cast alike. Some excellent direction by Bill Duke, who if you don't know him, he is in Commando and Predator. The chap who loves to shave. An excellent performance by Laurence Fishburne as undercover cop John Hall, sent in to infiltrate a drugs cartel. Jeff Goldblum also puts in a great performance as David Jason Attorney at Law. A film that has action, suspense, brilliant story and a twist. A scene in particular is quite graphic but only adds to the film's realism, and of life on the street. In one word "BRILLIANT". Well worth the spend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gangster Thriller 28 July 2009
By N. J. B. Barnes
Format:DVD
A brilliant gangster movie, with some stunning acting by both Jeff Goldblum and Laurence Fishburne.
Imagine going undercover as a drug dealer, with your target the top of the tree. This movie delivers the theatrics you expect from such talented actors, and is very well written.
I'm not going to give the plot away - but this is exactly how I imagine it to be, and I would also struggle with the power that money and drugs delivers, as does our lead actor. I have no idea why this wasn't a massive block buster - a Must watch movie.
