Just got it.
Any good? (rhetorical question)
Only positive replies please. I am going to watch it anyway and I hate when I see negative things about a movie I want to watch. Just tell me the good things.

This is a thread you may want to avoid then...
FWIW I haven't seen it, but from what I've heard (from one person), it wasn't bad.

Thanks for linking a thread that I specifically said I am not interested in.
And a thanks with no sarcasm to the second comment about someone saying it was not bad.

Not one of the best movies of the year, but a good one.
More than a few cop cliches.

Bump for more opinions, to include Shad's.
ETA: Just trying to get others opinions. Myself and four others I know watched it (not together), did not care for it. Pretty small sample size. Seems like some people liked it.

That seems like a borderline negative comment, Shad is gonna yell at you.

I wasnt a big fan of this movie... I was way way too slow and didnt really go anywhere

We got it from the Redbox last night and all watched it. It wasn't too bad but it seemed very slow and dragged out.

I agree......starts slow. But this is a good flick. Kind of reminded me somewhat of a condensed version of The Wire. It even has a couple of The Wire characters in it.
It's ashamed that drug dealers get so typecast!

I like Richard Gere but I thought he was miscast in this. He's in his 60's playing a 43 year old. Snipes and Cheadle were perfect as brothers and Will Patton put up a nice little supporting part. I know Ethan Hawke has a couple oscar nods on his resume but I still find him to be underrated. I'd like to see him team up with Tarantino. Hawke is the man.
Didn't care much for the movie, overall. Storyline was choppy and like someone else said it never went everywhere.
SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didn't understand Cheadle's lack of emotion after his bro was murdered in front of him.
