In too Deep (1999) is a movie I recently watched on Amazon Prime. The storyline follows an ambitious undercover cop who feels he's perfect to infiltrate a notorious crime ring and bring them down. When he gets in too deep it's hard to tell whose side he's on. This movie is directed by Michael Rymer (Pincic at Hanging Rock) and stars Omar Epps (Scream 2), LL Cool J (Deep Blue Sea), Nia Long (The Best Man), Stanley Tucci (Hunger Game) and Pam Grier (Coffey). The storyline for this picture was interesting and fun to watch unfold. There were elements that seemed unrealistic like how quickly the main character infiltrated the gang; however, I did think the acting was solid and LL Cool J delivered his character and the intensity of circumstances well. The soundtrack was also good and the primary plot and conclusion plays out well. Overall this is far from a masterpiece but is still worth a viewing. I'd score this a 6/10.
