Larenz Tate does a great job in this movie about young blacks in the 60s and 70s. He spends a few years in Vietnam and then comes home to a dead-end life and takes part in an armed robbery that sends him to prison at the end. That's the part i didn't like. In the courtroom he goes berzerk when the judge gives him 15 to life but hell - several people were killed in the robbery including a cop! I thought he'd be executed and was surprised at the light sentence and dumbfounded when his character objected to the severity.
Tate does a great job in the lead role. First time i saw this guy and i'm surprised he never became a bigger star. Very likable screen persona. David Keith is sensational as Kirby, the one-legged and tough as nails goodguy/badguy. Chris Tucker plays his usual character of a loud mouth who thinks he knows everything and is fine too.
