unlabelledView post →Now watching Bill Duke's Deep Cover on @criterionchannl.bsky.social. There's a special place in my heart for early-1990s Laurence Fishburne, especially King of New York, Boyz n the Hood, What's Love Got to Do with It, and now this film. I particularly like the way Duke frames him in each sequence.

The other film called Deep Cover Obsession (76) - like Vertigo but not as good Vertigo (58) - like Obsession but waaaaay better
unlabelledView post →For a bit of respite from the news I watched a movie tonight - Deep Cover (on Prime). A really likeable action comedy about improv comics falling into a life of crime which turns out to star Orlando Bloom as well as loads of other people who I’ve met and/or worked with. Enjoyably silly fun.

unlabelledView post →My ⭐️⭐️1/2 review of DEEP COVER boxd.it/ggVnxj Ready 4 hate mail!🤣 Stylish "thriller" boasts intriguing (if improbable) setup but fails to execute anything remotely authentic. Goldblum is great, but Fishburne is one-note & supporting cast range from overwrought to wooden. #filmsky 📽 Criterion 1086
unlabelledView post →Picking a random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Year 2, Day #204 "Deep Cover" (Bill Duke/1992) Laurence Fishburne and Jeff Goldblum as the big bad. Fuck yeah, sign me up! Haven't seen it yet but it is on my priority list.
unlabelledView post →You know what's a good fucking film? Bill Duke's Deep Cover. You know what is also a good fucking film? King of New York by Abel Ferrara. Both with incredible Laurence Fishburne performances. Quite the double bill.
unlabelledView post →#NowWatching DEEP COVER (1992). Director: Bill Duke. Laurence Fishburne, Jeff Goldblum. Odyssey thru 90's Los Angeles drug culture, as undercover cop (Fishburne) attempts to take down deranged cocaine trafficker (Goldblum, delight!). Rewatch. #filmsky 📽 Criterion Collection 1086
unlabelledView post →Here's our first look at Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed in 'Deep Cover' The film follows "three improv comedians are recruited by the police as undercover operatives." Read the article here: tinyurl.com/2r494xrf [📷 via Empire Magazine] #DeepCover
unlabelledView post →Mijy just asked me if the movie were watching (Deep Cover on Amazon, pretty funny so far) was “narrated” by “rich guy” took some back and forth to determine she was actually asking if this movie was *directed* by *Guy Ritchie.* But we got there in the end.
unlabelledView post →In 1992 Bill Duke teamed up with Laurence Fishburne and Jeff Goldblum to create one of the best film noirs ever made and a masterpiece of Black cinema. @walterdgreason.bsky.social and Tim Fielder join in to talk about it, the rise of hip hop, and the early 90s. DEEP COVER drops NOW.
unlabelledView post →I sometimes marvel at how the 1992 movie Deep Cover explains everything about 2025. "You shouldn't've done that David. You shouldn't've done that." "Well I did so get in the van." "You shouldn't've done that, David." "Well I DIIIIIID so get in the fucking van!" See what I mean? Hey! Where you going?
unlabelledView post →Deep Cover is an incredible movie, holy shit.

unlabelledView post →In Deep Cover, Bryce Dallas Howard plays Kat, a struggling actress who is teaching improv classes in London when she is asked to assist in a sting operation. She selects two of her students to assist her: the brooding Marlon (Orlando Bloom) who is obsessed with backstories... #FilmSky 📽 1/

unlabelledView post →Enjoyed Deep Cover www.comedy.co.uk/film/deep-co... Lots of funny stuff. Worth it for Nick Mohammed cocaine scene alone. The Pin have given themselves very funny parts too.
unlabelledView post →a character in the movie, Deep Cover, just said he had to "run to the versateller" and i was like "the what?" - apparently thats what bank of america called its atms... i guess it's an antiquated term now, but now all i wanna be is a "versapoet".
unlabelledView post →I love that Robert Kraft and the Usual Gang of Idiots seem to believe that making a tiny little buddy film (Deep Cover: The High School Years?) is not only the antidote to antisemitism but also a sly way to reinvigorate the much overstated grand Black-Jewish alliance.
unlabelledView post →Watched Deep Cover last night before it leaves the criterion channel and I cannot think of a single sexier screen performance than Laurence Fishburne in that movie. Good grief!!!
unlabelledView post →Deep Cover: further evidence for my theory that any movie that describes someone as being from “Back East” is at least pretty good. Sickest movie of all time
unlabelledView post →Deep Cover is a good movie.

unlabelledView post →the video for Eric B. & Rakim's "Let the Rhythm Hit 'Em" looks like a movie tie-in to a version of 'Deep Cover' that was directed by David Lynch instead of Bill Duke
unlabelledView post →Great movie though I Deep Cover on Prime is absolutely hysterical. Orlando Bloom steals it. I hope both get nominated for an Academy Award.
unlabelledView post →Laurence Fishburne - 📽️ Deep Cover (Bill Duke, 1992) Duke’s Black cinema in general involves some of the coolest buried gems. And Fishburne has never looked or sounded suaver than as the undercover cop with conflicted loyalties. He’s our captivating focus, electric opposite a cocky Jeff Goldblum.
unlabelledView post →watched Deep Cover (1992) this evening and just very visually fed
unlabelledView post →Ms Nito (she has a bow on her head) suggested Deep Cover to watch tonight... I fucking love that film. Laurence Fishburne. Jeff Goldblum. 90s gangster shit and.... Oh. There's another film called Deep Cover. Fine. Whatever. Let's watch THAT instead. Huff.
unlabelledView post →Thank you for hosting us, @herberthistory.bsky.social. I’d never seen Deep Cover and I loved it. Such a great movie! Happy New Year everyone! See y’all next year! #HATM
unlabelledView post →There’s lots of reasons I’d recommend watching the neo-noir crime movie Deep Cover (1992) but probably its most unique aspect is having a bad guy who looks like Sergio Aragonés. Sadly he does not compulsively draw comics on everything.
unlabelledView post →Surprise of the week is Deep Cover a really strong comic caper film that doesn't disappoint. #LetterBoxdFriday #LastFourWatched
unlabelledView post →Bill Duke’s 1992 classic “Deep Cover” should have been the first of several Fishburne/Goldblum buddy films. They have PERFECT chemistry. youtu.be/rPQSHk-UN7s?...
unlabelledView post →Movie years project Year 1992 (62/122) Now Watching 📽️ #8/15 Deep Cover dir. Bill Duke rec'd by @uptownsongclub.bsky.social
unlabelledView post →Look how well these scenes in DEEP COVER are lit. Whole film is full of intentional lighting in every frame And the axes on the wall with that menacing underlighting 😍
unlabelledView post →(Deep Cover is a Christmas movie.)
unlabelledView post →I watched Deep Cover (1992) last night and really enjoyed it. Some sparkling performances and banging colour palette work really elevated it. In a lot of ways it reminded me of "To Live and Die in L.A.". A lot of grim truths about law enforcement and standout performances. Good stuff. #FIlmsky
unlabelledView post →Stoked seeing folks discover DEEP COVER. I'll always share our @genrevision.com episode. Easily one of my favorite movies to introduce to @travisnewton.bsky.social and get his reaction. Check out our episode if you're looking for some fun movie club discussion, but do not miss the movie.
unlabelledView post →I guess I'm just going to be out here heaping praise on @genrevision.com movies because DEEP COVER is an all-timer. No joke, this is an essential film. Do not miss it or Clarence Williams III will be on you like stink on doo-doo.
unlabelledView post →Random Movie Recommendation Day 97: Deep Cover (1992) Larry Fishburne directed by Bill Duke?! Yes please. #FilmSky
unlabelledView post →Currently watching: Deep Cover (2025) didn’t have any expectations, just looking for background noise while scrolling but found myself actually paying attention, cool
unlabelledView post →So tonight is going to be the "other" Deep Cover film. The Fishburne and Goldblum one. I'm that sad that I found two other films called Deep Cover and considered having my letterboxd last four to all be Deep Cover.
unlabelledView post →DEEP COVER This delightful film about 3 improv comedians going under cover to help the police bust a drug cartel is *really* funny... I practically RAN to tell my kid who does improv(and even teaches!). If you've got an improv fan in your circles (or even if you don't) this is good healing fun.
unlabelledView post →Tonight's late movie is Deep Cover (2025) 🍿
unlabelledView post →Deep Cover - Not enough people know about this modern (for the time) film noir and how Fishburne makes it so much better.
unlabelledView post →No one in film looked as good as Laurence Fishburne did in every frame of Deep Cover.
unlabelledView post →I laughed waaayyy more than I expected with this movie. Howard, Bloom, and Mohammed all had fantastic rapport with one another. And like improv, the story kept escalating in ways you wouldn’t expect. #filmsky Watch #DeepCover if you enjoy laughing! 😂
unlabelledView post →Deep Cover (2025) is a surprisingly funny film from last year. A reminder of how far a comedy can come when it hires the right people to land the jokes. Bryce Dallas Howard gives her most likable performance in years as Kat, an improv teacher in London who is long overdue for her big break.
unlabelledView post →Deep Cover is 31 on Letterboxd when listed by popularity of Laurence Fishburne's filmography. Which is testament both to one hell of a filmography but also how underseen that film is! One of the best crime films of all time! Get it seen people.
