Genres & Description

Action Comedy Crime Drama

6.7 / 10

In the mid-1990s, two inmates bury the burned bodies of two lifers at Mississippi's infamous Parchman Farm; a third old-timer relates their story. They'd served 65 years for a murder they didn't commit, framed by a local sheriff while buying moonshine whiskey for a Manhattan club owner to whom they owed money. In flashbacks we see this odd couple thrown together (Ray is a fast-talking con man, and Claude is a serious man about to start work as a bank teller), the loss of Ray's watch (sterling silver, from his daddy), the murder and trial, the hardships of Parchman, and the love-hate relationship of Claude and Ray as they spend 65 years bickering and looking for a way to escape.

Very funny movie. RIP Bernie Mac. Anthony Anderson, Guy Torry, Bokeem Woodbine, Obba Babatunde, Miguel Nunez, Sanaa Lathan, Lisa Nicole Carson, Clarence Williams III were also in this. That fat black guy that asked Eddie Murphy for his cornbread, he played in A Thin Line Between Love And Hate with Martin Lawrence. He worked at the club that Martin and Bobby Brown were co-owners of. He also played in Blue Hill Avenue with Allen Payne and Angelle Brooks. - @Thursday, September 11, 2014 4:27 PM
