It was interesting and original to take noir into the black culture. It has always been a favorite genre of mine, and this was a very unique way to go with it that I enjoyed immensely. Unfortunately it falls into the same trap that a lot of noirs do. It becomes way too convoluted and throws in so many twists and turns that it completely lost me near the end, but it was more entertaining than a lot of noirs I've seen. Overall it's nothing above a unique take on the noir genre. Pretty mediocre. I should mention that Don Cheadle is amazing. So naturally charismatic and absorbed in his character. One of the best performances of the year.
