#IN THE DEEP MOVIE. ENDING CRACK#

Since it unfolds in such a haphazard and noticeably episodic fashion - with many scenes sporadically occurring and never feeling cohesive with the rest of the plot except in the most basic connection - we never fully buy into what's happening.ĭespite the decent, but obvious and obligatory third quarter speech where the protagonist explains why he became a cop, we never sense that he's the best man for the job - beyond him saying so. While all of the proper elements are in place - the eager cop, his worried mentor, a new and similarly concerned lover, and of course, the powerful and charismatic villain - they're not always presented in a believable or credible enough way to make the film work. It's an intriguing premise, but unfortunately it's already been done in better films such as "Donnie Brasco" and "Deep Cover" just to name a few.

Not surprisingly, he then slowly but surely comes to befriend, trust and defend them, and must ultimately chose which lifestyle - cop or criminal - to follow. Reportedly based on a true story, the film retreads familiar grounds and occurrences with the gung-ho cop managing to infiltrate a criminal's trusted inner circle. OUR TAKE: 4 out of 10 In what's clearly not the first and certainly not the last film to portray cops who get too involved in their undercover dealings with thugs, "In Too Deep" offers an occasionally engaging but ultimately mediocre look at such matters.

NIA LONG plays a dancer and part-time nude model who falls for Cole and has sex with him.

GANO GILLS plays Gittens' best friend and right-hand man.

PAM GRIER plays another detective working with Cole.

LL COOL J plays the drug lord they're trying to bust, a man known for his generosity to the community, but also for his violent and lethal temper, drug dealings and profanity.

STANLEY TUCCI plays his mentor, a no-nonsense cop who's worried about Cole and uses strong profanity.

Along the way, he cusses a lot, smokes, does some drugs (in the line of duty) and has sex with Myra. As such, he shoots and/or threatens several people and nearly turns bad.

OMAR EPPS plays a young undercover cop who gets in so deep with a drug lord that the lines between his real and undercover identities become blurred.

WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: R The reason was not available as of this review date, but we'd guess it was for brutal violence, extreme profanity/language, drug use and sexual situations. WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT? If they're fans of someone in the cast or of gritty, urban cop/gangster dramas they might, but this one doesn't seem to have much appeal to kids beyond that. Getting so deep into his role with the drug lord that the lines between his real and undercover identities become blurred, Cole soon risks both his life and the successful completion of his case with every subsequent step he takes.

Yet, Cole can't get Gittens out of his mind, and after convincing several high-ranking officials that he's the only cop who can crack the case, Cole returns to Cincinnati. It's then that Cole meets Myra (NIA LONG), a dancer and part-time model and the two soon fall for each other. When rumors continually circulate about Cole possibly being a cop, a lethal encounter causes Boyd to pull him off the case temporarily, giving him some time to cool down. It concerns Dwayne Gittens (LL COOL J), a drug lord both feared by his enemies and praised by the locals for his charitable work that he's been nicknamed "God." Thus far, no one has been able to crack Gittens' inner circle that includes his right-hand man, Frisco (GANO GILLS), but soon Cole attempts to do just that. After Cole - who's partially assisted by surveillance officers such as Angela Wilson (PAM GRIER) - proves his worth by busting some smalltime dealers, Boyd agrees and assigns him to a case that so far no one has been able to crack.

PLOT: Jeff Cole (OMAR EPPS) is a rookie detective who's so confident and eager to make the streets of Cincinnati safe for the local kids that he persuades his mentor, Preston Boyd (STANLEY TUCCI), to make him an undercover cop.

QUICK TAKE: Drama: An undercover cop's deep involvement with the drug lord he's trying to bust puts both him and his case in jeopardy.
