Samuel L Jackson is one of my all time favorite actors. He's a total bad-ass in everything he is in. Lakeview Terrace is no exception. The rest of the film leaves something to be desired though. I know the 2 main characters argued a lot but they just didn't seem to work well together, the chemistry was not there. As for the plot, it was a bit on the weak side. Until the final half hour, the two men fought back in forth in a lame series of backstabs. One thing the film did do well was make the audience sympathetic to Samuel L. Jackson's vindictive Abel Turner.All i can say is the final half hour of the movie was actually pretty decent with the final back-and-forth creating some compelling drama. All in all, Lakeview Terrace was a decent movie, so I will recommend it, just don't expect miracles.
My rating: B-
