Waist Deep (2006)
7/10
Urban western
1 July 2006
This would have been a great B Western film. Having an R rating, I expected lots of sex and nudity, but there wasn't ANY. And the one love scene was refreshingly tasteful and brief. Gibson has a great future as a leading man. Gives real performances in unreal situations, but his big film hasn't been made yet, but it will be. The girl could have been played by any foxy black chick. Meagan Good added nothing to the film. The Game also could have been played by any black actor who can scowl. Like a rap CD album cover. It's gotten really old, that mean scowl. Like he's just eaten a stink bug. Larenz Tate? Also a part that any black actor could have played. Gibson and the boy who played his son were the only actors who rose above and grabbed your eye. And the only real funny moment in the film comes from the only white guy in the film. Whoa! Destined for the under $5 DVD rack at a used DVD store near you.
