Carlito's Way: Rise To Power

After serving time together in prison, three gangsters from different backgrounds – Carlito (Jay Hernandez), Earl (Mario Van Peebles) and Rocco (Michael Kelly) – join forces and take over the lucrative heroin trade in Harlem, N.Y. However, their partnership with a gangster (Burt Young) is threatened when Earl's hotheaded little brother, Reggie (Mtume Gant), disrespects the mobster's son and then kidnaps him. A ransom goes out on Reggie's head, and the friends are forced to choose sides.

Critic Reviews:

• " A produo barata compromete o visual e a reconstituio de poca e Hernandez, embora bom ator, irregular em sua tentativa de imitar Pacino. Ainda assim, os personagens (Van Peebles, em especial) e a trama so interessantes. " – Pablo Villaça

• " …a legitimate piece of work (and not just a sleazy attempt to milk the popularity of the original). " – David Nusair
