Deep Cover should come with a complimentary pillow for when the third-act CGI soup inevitably kicks in.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Deep Cover?

Rewatched Deep Cover last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

The cinematography in Deep Cover is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Just got out of Deep Cover and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Deep Cover?

Director clearly thought Deep Cover was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Unpopular opinion: Deep Cover is the most overrated film of the decade

Honestly, Deep Cover would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
