I remembered Tyrese Gibson as the hypnotically handsome (and narcissistic) man-child from "Baby Boy", and as the most interesting actor in "Four Brothers", and I was looking forward to seeing what he could do in a noir style action film. I didn't expect "Othello" or anything, and I didn't get it. But this was an OK piece of entertainment that got over on slick sets, good looking actors and high production values. The plot borrows liberally from many pictures before it. It plays very fast and loose with the audiences' sense of credibility; the hero pulls off so many seemingly impossible stunts here that there is a major "oh suuuuure" factor here. In fact, if I had to sum it up in a few words, it would be "'Commando' featuring a black protagonist in a deep urban setting." Yes, I'm serious. Think about it: Larger than life muscular ultraman is retired from from his former life of violence and black ops; he is pulled back into that life when his child is kidnapped. On the way, the first woman he bumps into is dragged along into his adventures and eventually becomes his ally and a member of his family. Sound familiar? So things go pretty much 'by the numbers' here. Anyone who has watched action/adventure movies for more than a couple of years could chart every plot point and development in the story arc at least 10 minutes before it happens on screen. The actors are very attractive in a highly buffed up MTV way, but the characters they play are as shallow as a baking pan, and it's hard to work up too much interest in them, since you know exactly what they are going to do and say. Still everyone (even the little boy) is able to really 'act' at a professional feature film level, as opposed to most glamor figures who just project an attitude. Compare most of the actors here to some 3rd rate fluff piece like "Cradle 2 the Grave", and the actors here come off much better than C2G's department store mannequins. I especially admired poor Larenz Tate, stuck with the 'weak' 2nd banana role as Gibson's cousin. He put a lot of juice into his character and really worked it. He reminded me somewhat of the way that Colin Farrell will use his eyes and mouth to simultaneously project weakness and bravado. The role sucked, but he did his best to make it succeed, and many actors would have been much worse in the role. "Waist Deep" is worth seeing for an evening of undemanding entertainment, but not much more. I am not sure how this film will do at the box office - I was the only one watching it at my local cineplex the evening I was there - but I hope it makes some money for the people involved so they can continue to grow as storytellers and movie makers.

spoilers awful, horrible, el sucko, stupid, the ending sucked, horrible acting, typical, constant, doesn't make sense, i wish tyrese died, the action sucked, why do you need to buy gas to use the bathroom?, how come every person in the film was a gangster including the pre school teacher?, there's no way he would've survived the crash. these are terms that might describe this movie if you watched it. It had potential. Just a little potential but it was all thrown away by the horrendous acting and story. Larenz Tate is the only good one and he ends up dying. It is quite a typical movie, just like cradle 2 the grave. About a "gangster" who loves their kid and the kid gets kidnapped for money, at the end after a few bad jokes and mediocre action, they get the kid back. At the end of this one, Tyrese gets stopped by the cops and decides to pull a Thelma and Louise by driving around sixty five miles an hour into a river. Well I guess he's god or something cause he ends up living somehow, which keep in mind, at that speed is impossible considering how he landed. This film has probably the worst ending I have ever seen in a film and should be outlawed in every single part of the world. The writer should swallow a active grenade and hug the director.

This movie is like a mixture of menace II Society, Bonnie & Clyde, Man on Fire and others, although it does have some certain flaws, but the rest of decent, with tyrese & meagan good deliver nice performances and the game making the best urban movie villain since The Man from Boyz n The Hood, the production's decent, the camera-work is nicer than expected The Movie is about a man who's released from prison and gets reunited with his son, then his son gets kidnapped and the only way to save him is rob banks and kill the man (The Game), when we reviewed last year of the dreadful get rich or die trying, it's hard to make a good urban gangsta movie, because gangsta movies aren't interesting movies, there's a flawed plot and few clichés Director Vondie Curtis Hall who recently recovered from that disastrous glitter, explains more differently in this one Waist deep is much more entertaining than Get Rich or Die Trying, but I'm not gonna quite recommended, so thumbs down for me.

I usually really enjoy a good action flick, which this is. However, it has been cast and directed so stereotypically that I can't enjoy the movie because of it. Not all Africian-American's live the life portrayed or dress in a muscle beach t-shirt. This movie degrades Africian-Americans, but looking at the bi-polar voting results, it appears that there are too many who deem anything black a "10". I think the producers could have delivered a pretty good flick if they hadn't tried to pander to the "blacker is better" faction. There might be some talent lurking here, but as long as the portrayal is "Shaft", we'll never know. Too bad. Bottom line is that this should be a rental--at best.

I had the opportunity to read the script before it was in production. I thought the story was good and anticipated the movie. I was sat through 20 minutes of the movie and walked out. I was getting sick from the camera movement. there seemed to be not one steady shot, the camera was ALL over the place. I don't know if the director wanted a chaotic feel to the movie or what. It looked like the camera operator was either on crack, drunk or scared to be in the section of town he was in, or maybe he had turrets. The photography was to tight Extreme close ups for almost every line of dialog made me want to move further back in the theater; to bad I was in the very back. It was so close at times I could see straight into the pores on the actors faces. the editing looked as if it was done by a 1st quarter film student, learning how to use final cut. when 02's son was kidnapped and the car was speeding away, the jump cuts to show the car moving further was completely overdone and looked amateur. I don't know what they were trying to do but they failed, unless they were trying to make a joke, if so they still didn't succeed. the wholes, grammar and spelling mistakes in the script should of been a warning as to the movie. but oh well.

I am not a big movie person so it is hard for me to appreciate a movie without a plot. This movie was very well written and the acting was good. I enjoyed the movie and would recommend seeing this movie to anyone. Good job! Although this movie is listed rated R, I would allow my younger son (twelve) to view this movie. It is very real life and it only allowed enough violence to give you a true picture of how things really happen to some people in life. I didn't realize Meagan Good was such a good actress. I learned a greater respect for her talent during this movie. The Game also played his part well. There are several singers & Rappers making it today in the theater. I would like to say that they are doing a wonderful job. Kudos!

Saw this last night at the L.A. Film festival. Only went because it was FREE, but was pleasantly surprised at the pacing. There were implausible moments and a cheesy drawn out cell phone conversation..in the middle of a police chase, with a hackneyed "Shawshank Redemption"/ "Thelma & Louise" ending, but Tyrese Gibson and Megan Goode draw you in and make you want to see where this thing goes. They look great and had chemistry. (Megan, it's time for you to do more films like "Brick". I think you have the range to break out in some different roles outside off 'hood flicks) Kimora Lee Simmons is hilarious in her cameo. She may need to do a movie herself! Just check out the way she curls her lip when she gets an unwanted man in her house. I will have to add her performance to my collection of "Great Actor Scenes that stand out by themselves" There are clichés galore, and one scene I found insulting to elderly black women. (Megan's character calls a grandmotherly-looking black woman the "B-word". It was funny in an earlier scene where Megan Goode's character is called one off screen for holding up traffic, but it doesn't work when used on an old woman in a bank. Kasi, you shoulda told Vondie to drop that line!) Lastly, I always laugh when I see so-called "gangsters" making money hand over foot with their hustling,but they never move to nicer areas? You have thousands of dollars stashed in safety deposit boxes and $250,000 worth of jewelry, and you still live in a jacked up house in the worst parts of L.A.? Dumb. Hunter Hall who plays the kidnapped son is a cute little boy, but his acting was stilted and unnatural in several scenes to the point of being distracting. But he sure does look like his momma! (Kasi, you need to be in more movies! We miss you!) This movie is strictly popcorn fun. As Mr. Vondi Curtis Hall stated before showing his film last night, "This is a movie, not necessarily a film" in the artsy-fartsy sense. Most critics have been complaining that it's hodge-podge of various genres, but it works for what it tries to do: tell the journey of a single-parent father trying to save his son at all costs. How often do you get to see that? **(And the brother survives? Shee-itt!) Lessons learned from this flick? You can shoot and kill a handful of bad people, rob empty houses in the Hollywood Hills because a half naked girl can fool police, and you can drive to Mexico and live happily ever after in a Malibu-styled beach house without a passport, just a bag full of money. Let me get my glock!
