Guilty by Association
Morgan Freeman lends a little gravitas to this gangster story about two  drug-dealing partners--D-Mo (Daemon Moore) and Drama (Jeff Edwards)--whose  friendship crumbles in the face of too much money and too much stress.Guilty by Associationis utterly amateurish; the strangely paced  and confusing storytelling is made even more confusing by the arbitrary  use of cheap visual effects and bad sound design. Still, despite this--or  maybe because of it--the story remains weirdly watchable if you pretend  that this a clumsy dramatization in a documentary. Then the poorly  constructed surface merely stands in for the real story, which the earnest  but stiff acting is meant to evoke but not embody. Not everyone, however,  will want to give the movie this much benefit of the doubt. Freeman has a  few scattered scenes; his powerful presence momentarily gives the illusion  that you're watching something credible.--Bret Fetzer
