you'll get a laugh or two out of it

There is a lot of action in this film as well as gratuitous violence. But there are too many absudities to take this film all that seriously. The film also sends a bad message to youngsters attracted to the gangsta life. The message it sends is that if you are a smart gangsta, you can get away with just about anything and live happily ever after. You'll have money, women and anything else you desire.

The main character in this film played by Tyrese Gibson, isn't an active gang banger but was recently released from prison and trying to turn his life around. The ironic thing about this is that in the process of turning his life around, he must utilize is skills as a gangsta. June 12, 2007

An easy to follow drama that will keep you interested

Waist Deep is the story of an ex-con who is trying to reform himself and make a better life for his son when circumstances force him to return to a life of crime. Tyrese Gibson stars as O2, a man who just got out of prison and is working at rebuilding his life. He's got a job as a security guard and takes care of his son. After picking his son up from school, O2 is distracted by a beautiful woman crossing the street. The next thing he knows he's being carjacked and the robbers are speeding away--unaware that his son is in the back seat. After enlisting the help of the woman who distracted him (Meagan Good in the role of "hooker with a heart of gold"), O2 learns that his son is being held captive by a ruthless gang leader who wants $100,000 in exchange for the boy.

Waist Deep was action packed and easy to follow. It wasn't the best movie I've ever seen, but it certainly wasn't the worst. I like the idea of a man who wants nothing more than to reform and show his son that a life of crime isn't his only option. The fact that this man is then forced to choose between leading by example and having someone to lead only makes the storyline more intriguing. I didn't know what to expect from this film, but I was entertained from start to finish. It won't win any awards, but it will definitely keep you interested. June 11, 2007
