Synopsis

From the producer of Scarface and Carlito's Way comes the action thriller Carlito's Way: Rise to Power. Jay Hernandez (Friday Night Lights), Mario Van Peebles (Ali), Luis Guzman (Carlito's Way) and Sean Combs (Monster's Ball) star in the gripping tale of the early years of gangster legend Carlito Brigante. Seduced by the power of the brutal New York underworld, he enters a deadly circle of greed and retribution. Assisted by his two brothers in crime, Carlito is on the fast track to becoming Spanish Harlem's ultimate kingpin. He quickly learns, however, that the only way to survive at the top is through loyalty to his friends and respect for the rules of the street.

    Only for curious fans of the original

    06 December 2008
    Carlito's Way was one of the better gangster films to come out of the early nineties. Headed by Scarface director Brian DePalma and featuring scenery-chewing performances by Al Pacino, few could see this direct-to-video prequel coming over a decade later. With unconvincing macho performances, flimsy 1960s production design and by-the-numbers rise-to-power gangster plot, this prequel certainly doesn't live up to its title. For curious fans of the original only.
