Jamie Foxx (from that great show In Living Color) plays a petty crook that is hired by the feds to lure a good thief out of hiding.

It reminded me of "48 Hours" & "Blue Streak" Kimberly Elise (Beloved) plays his girlfriend who presents him with a son he didn't know he had- don’t ask.

One of my favorite actors, David Morse plays the cranky g-man assigned to follow him around New York. Some of the photography made me a little dizzy, but is very effective.

It was a lot better than 1 thought it would be. Foxx intertwines comedy and drama very well.

See Ya' At The Movies
