In this gangland epic, black gangs in 1930s New York City battle the Italian mob for control of the Harlem numbers racket. Laurence Fishburne plays the Harlem boss tasked with protecting the business from mafioso Dutch Schultz and his violent crew.
Netflix Rating: 3.8
Top Rotten Tomatoes Critics: The Sting-like ending with its crosses and double-crosses could have been better handled, but there are plenty of other payoffs.
