　　Having witnessed his junkie father killed Russell Stevens grows up to become a policeman and make a difference. When he is offered an undercover job by Gerald Carver he accepts and begins to build a relationship with David Jason in order to get to the main dealers. However as he is forced to deal drugs and kill to keep his cover he finds the lines between cop and criminal being lost – is he a cop pretending to be a dealer or a dealer pretending to be a cop?
　　Larry (as he was then) Fishburne's first lead role was a typically dark vehicle. The story is the usual one of cop losing himself when undercover, however it manages to be more than that for most of the time. Co-written by Tolkin, who wrote The Player, this naturally has a nice cynical edge to it when it looks at the US's hypocritical approach to drug control and the political links between the street hustlers and the political high rollers who court respectability. The story does eventually settle into a traditional setting but even then it works well as a thriller.
　　The multi-talented Bill Duke directs well with a gritty feel and a few nice touches. However several things are a bit iffy. For most of the film Fishburne's narration/voice over is a bit like a cross between Apocalypse Now and Blade Runner – it comes across as a little too dark and heavy and also explains things like we can't figure it out ourselves. However once you get into the film it's not as big a deal. My main problem lies with the characters.
　　Fishburne is excellent, a real model of underlying anger and violence, Goldblum is good but perhaps a little OTT on the yuppie/violence thing, but there's good support from Smith and Spin City's beautiful (and often underused – but not here) Victoria Dillard. However the two main white characters (Goldblum and Smith) are both smeared with racist insinuations – Smith appears to insult his black officers and doesn't care about the junkies, while Goldblum is fascinated about all things black and talks about them as wild beautiful beasts and loves having sex with "black'. These things aren't a major problem, but with basically only two white characters in it, it's a little worrying that both are given that edge.
　　However these are minor complaints that get lost with a good thriller. Fishburne excels and Duke delivers a story that is a good thriller but also has a jaded, subversive edge.

Winnie the Pooh 是英国作家 A. A. Milne 笔下一只十分爱吃蜂蜜的熊，他其实是一个小男孩 Christopher Robin 的玩具熊，Robin 想像他和这只熊住在一个叫“百亩森林”的地方，当地还有许多其他的动物邻居伙伴们，像是兔子 Rabbit、小猪 Piglet、跳跳虎 Tigger …等等，这一切的故事都是 Robin 所想像出来的。迪士尼首度於１９６６年推出“小熊维尼与蜂蜜树”立刻深获好评，之后的“小熊维尼与大风吹”更拿到当年奥斯卡金像奖最佳短篇动画奖项，“小熊维尼与跳跳虎”也获得提名，所以在１９７７年时，迪士尼将此三部 Pooh 的短片集合成一部电影在戏院上映，成为迪士尼的第２２部经典动画－【小熊维尼历险记】。本片录影带原本在美国都是三段分开来发行的，一直到１９９６年才首度正式发行完整电影版的录影带，一上市居然大热卖！Winnie the Pooh 还真是迪士尼人气最旺的小熊啊！
