There's always something brewing under her eyes. When she's not a cat, she's, snake, when not a snake, she's a lion. She is both threatening, and supremely attractive, not just attractive in the sense that she looks good (tho she does) but as in the pure quality of attracting others, it’s easy to believe that despite what she is, people want to be in love with her, and around her. She is like pretty much everyone in the film ruthless, calculating and acting wise she is divine. Watch Laurence Fishburne sit on a couch.īarkin is a sneering, smirking, glaring force of nature. Watching this movie, I was reminded of the sheer heights and depths of Fishburne’s sexiness, his charisma, his singular ability to give you a whole mood with a very simple non-descript action. For a guy who had carved out iconic roles in films like “Boyz n the Hood”, “Deep Cover”, and eventually What's Love Got to do with it, and “The Matrix”, Fishburne does not seem to conjure the same sort of magical recognition that Denzel's name does. Denzel got all the press, attention, and adulation during the 90's, but while Washington is and was certainly his own category, so too was one Laurence Fishburne. ![]() The movie in some regard is a bit too detached, disavowing any real vulnerable emotion in a vacuum tight seal of unflappability, but man is it fun to watch it's two stars skulk, slither, circle, and screw each other. What ensues is a deadly game of Cat, Mouse, and Bigger Cat in a room full of rocking chairs. Grimes number two is Margaret Wells (Barkin) who instantly takes to Grimes and has other machinations of her own. It s precisely what got him ousted from that agency that interest Vic Grimes the creator of a corrupt firm that offers it's services in corporate espionage to the highest bidder. The movie introduces us to Nelson Crowe (Fishburne) a CIA man disavowed by the agency under a cloud of suspicion. ![]() Bad Company carries itself through its less than two hour run time on the near visible steam wafting off its two leads, its warm summer cool, and rapid fire dialogue delivered with the kind of sterilized precision one might see in an operating room.a very stylised, and well decorated operated room, where the doctor plays Jazz to set the proper mood for his work. In many other cases, for other films this would not be a good sign, it would be a weakness, here it most certainly meant as a compliment. Three things come to mind watching Bad Company Laurence Fishburne, Ellen Barkin, and style.
