Boring Cop “Thriller”
“Truth Be Told” is a boring cop thriller. Cops Stratten and Harris (Sheffer and Underwood) are corrupt cops after some dirty money. There’s a double cross involving Rayne (King) too.The problem is that nothing happens in this movie. The movie stares back at you with a blank expression. If you look at the cover, it looks like an exciting action thriller. The Lionsgate company always practices the “art of the deceptive cover”. This is no exception. There is no action, just talking. Craig Sheffer and Blair Underwood are okay, but King doesn’t have anything to work with. “Truth Be Told” was also known as: “Final Breakdown” and “Turnaround”. If the movie can’t decide on a title, that means the movie can’t decide on a tone or genre.
The “Truth” is: “Turnaround” when you see this, because you won’t regret it.

Interesting story, decent acting, though unpolished
First, in spite of its shortcomings, it did hold my interest throughout. It wants to be compared to some of Pam Grier’s films, especially the earlier ones, though it falls a bit short of that mark. Still, it’s generally fun, for similar reasons. And Regina King is attractive and effective in this role.The plot is not too original, and the direction indicates a good feel for visuals, but not much finesse. Most of the characters are obvious stereotypes, which substitutes for character development. And, often, for plot development as well, as they do what they must, regardless of reason. The musical cues are occasionally so heavy-handed I laughed out loud – not the intended effect.
On the plus side, the story is told pretty effectively, hiding, then revealing, clues, so that understanding is pleasantly delayed into an “A-ha” moment near the end. And there’s some restraint on the gratuitous sex and violence, so Jeff Byrd, the director, shows discretion and promise. No need to see it twice, but you might give it a chance once.
