Running Deep
Made for TV Movie:
Grieving man with a terrible dark secret hidden in his past and is dealing with the death of his wife from cancer. Her last wish was that his sons, one an adopted black man, who is hooked on drugs and being divorced by his wife and the other natural born son who is gay spend two weeks at a house on the beach that she secretly bought with some inherited money. Of course the three of them go (father and two sons) and get on each other's nerves.
Audio: 8
Video: 8
Movie: 5
Terribly contrived. Father is a philanderer trying to prove that he is heterosexual and all the while hating his homosexual son and covering up his secret that he was sexually abused by his camp counselor when he was nine years old (and is guilty because he liked it - and therefore may be gay himself). Yada yada yada.
Bet you can't guess the ending? Reconciliation with the gay son. WHAT A SURPRISE!! But I won't tell you what happens to the coke snorting wall street successful black adopted son who is being served with divorce papers.
This movie gets pretty tiresome with the three of these dysfunctional people getting on each other's nerves. But it is nothing compared to how much they get on the viewer's nerves. Do yourself a favor and skip this one.
