Review

In this gritty urban thriller, Fishburne is magnetic as a cop who finds himself being seduced by a life of crime when he is sent into "deep cover" as a drug dealer. With a story as streetwise as anything this side of Scorsese, the screenplay by maverick writer Michael Tolkin (The Player) adds an extra level of depth and decadence to the characterizations -- particularly Goldblum's turn as an ultra-smarmy attorney who wants to market his own designer drug.
