(1998) Caught Up DRAMA
THRILLER
African American Daryl (Bokeem Woodbine) has dreams about being successful, and owning his own night club, except that he needs a few extra thousands to do it. So his crack headed friend offers to be a partner with him providing if he could succeed into submitting him the money that he needs. So while Daryl is waiting for him sitting in his car, he then sees his crack head friend running away and robbing the bank of the money that he needs to open this so-called night club, completely caught Daryl off guard. So instead of surrendering like what any normal person would've done, he decides to drive away even though they're cop cars coming from all directions. The crack head dies as a result of Daryl crashing his car while evading police. And Daryl ends up in jail. He comes out for parole, and gets himself mixed up with a woman (Cynda Williams,) who looks identical to his ex, but still carries the torch for and she hooks him up with a job, leading to some preposterous situations. And by the time the movie is done still doesn't explain everything that has happened. The movie starts out believably well, but goes into the most unlikely scenario on the second half similar to a "Pulp Fiction" movie. I was hoping it was movie about an African American who was trying to succeed in his dreadful life, but as it turns out it becomes much more complicated than that.
