Laurence Fishburne stars in Bill Duke’s noir gem of the ’90s Black cinema explosion

Film noir hits the mean streets of 1990s Los Angeles in this stylish and subversive underworld odyssey from veteran actor-director Bill Duke. Laurence Fishburne stars as Russell Stevens/John Hull, a police officer who goes undercover as the partner of a dangerously ambitious cocaine trafficker (Jeff Goldblum) in order to infiltrate and bring down a powerful Latin American narcotics ring operating in LA. But the further Stevens descends into this ruthless world of money, violence, and power, the more disillusioned he becomes—and the harder to make out the line between right and wrong, crime and justice. Steeped in shadowy, neon-soaked atmosphere and featuring Dr. Dre’s debut solo single, this unsung gem of the nineties’ Black cinema explosion delivers a riveting character study and sleek action thrills alongside a furious moral indictment of America.

Director-Approved Special Edition Features

  • New 4K digital restoration
  • New interview with director Bill Duke
  • New piece on the film’s title track and its importance to the history of hip-hop
  • Panel discussion featuring Duke and Fishburne
  • And more

Bill Duke's Deep Cover is one of the best neo noir cop thrillers ever made. It's expertly directed with outstanding performances from a top notch cast especially Jeff Goldblum and Charles Martin Smith who are against type in shady villainous roles. The cinematography is beautiful with wonderful use of neon lighting and early 1990s L.A. It's a criminally underrated film that finally got it's proper dues with this fantastic Criterion Blu ray release. The transfer is so stunning it makes the film look brand new. Colors are very bold. The audio is a real standout as well showcasing the film's awesome soundtrack and score. If you've never seen Deep Cover (or are already a fan) do yourself a favor and buy this blu ray! It's the only way to fully experience this great film.

I had never seen this movie before. I grew up loving all the 90's hood movies, and for some reason, this one escaped me. I have been on a Jeff Goldblum kick recently and decided to pre-order this Criterion blu ray. This movie is amazing! Everything, everyone and the script itself seem very genuine. I never knew where this movie was going. It hits the ground running and never lets up. Very well done and a shame not more people know about this movie. I am already telling more people about this one so it will hopefully get more of the recognition it deserves. Top notch filmmaking and some truly great performances. I can't recommend it enough and if you're even half tempted to check it out, JUST WATCH IT!

Classic film that never gets old, one of Lawrence Fishburne best films, maybe the best. A psychological action thriller directed by Bill Dukes.

from the opening sequence .. standards of expectation seem amiss, coming in the after era of
black exportation films the mid 1990s unleashed a plethora of unconventional films With main lead actors of the Black Race.. one such Actor
Lawrence Fishburn.. it's not often that i root for the "bad-good guy" but Mr. Fishburns deserves more accolades for his portrayal in this Film.. this film deserves at least two viewings.. the first to seem the Story itself from a broad point of view.. and the second viewing to seem the "deep" internal struggles of each character.. from the drug addicted mother to the seemingly not so important supporting cast, each ones time in the film all lead to one climatic finish and ultimately
leaving with a question of "how much would you give to get what you want"

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect transfer with great extras
Reviewed in Canada on August 2, 2021
I was amazed to see this great underated movie from 1992 coming to Blu-ray and I was even happier to see that Criterion will do the transfer in 4K. I'm really happy, the movie looks amazing and I would say that the transfer is perfect, this looks as good as Do the right thing 4K by Criterion also which is my best colour transfer in 4K. The image looks almost in 3D, the colours are rich, the blacks are deep, the palette of colours offers a great precision with a great clarity and contrast. I can put my old DVD in the garbage. The sound is also very good and clear with that great soundtrack. Deep cover is a movie to discover with a great cast, Laurence Fishburne and Jeff Goldblum at the top of their game they have a wonderful chemistry together. The ensemble cast is also great with great choices to surround Fishburne and Goldblum also a top notch screenplay. I tought this independant movie will be forgotten forever but thanks to Criterion, it comes back with a vengeance.
