Violent and dark…but I liked it
This takes place in 1956. Imabelle (Robin Givens) gets away from her mobster boyfriend with a stash of gold he stole. She drives from Mississippi to NY and hides out totally unaware that her boyfriend and his gang are after her. She gets an overweight, naive and trusting man named Jackson (Forest Whitaker) to love her–but then her boyfriend shows up. She leaves him but Jackson gets his brother Goldy (Gregory Hines) to help him find her.That may sound a little plot heavy…but that’s only the first hour! This movie is way too convoluted and far too long. Also Hines and Givens are just not good actors. They try but they can’t pull this off–although Givens looks great in some of her costumes. Still I did like this.
Some previous posters pointed out that this is extremely bloody and that’s very true. Also it has strong doses of black humor. Still, it didn’t bother me. If anything it gave the film a few nice jolts. It’s well directed by Bill Duke, has great period detail (love the cars!) and (aside from Givens and Hines) has plenty of good acting. So, if you like extreme violence, black humor and gangster movies this should work for you. I give it a 7.
Great cast
People who have not lived the black experience have no idea what they are experiencing in this movie. The characters are true to form from my black experience growing up in the 50’s
