Bait (2000)

Bait is a low-rent Enemy of the State. At first Jamie Foxx was annoying with too much fast-talking shuck-and-jive and jibber-jabber but he toned it down as he proved himself to be a responsible going-straight guy and hero. (Seeing any man choose to settle down and be responsible for his infant son makes him a real hero and Jamie goes even further before the end.) The villain is a John Malkovich wannabe but he's omniscient and chilling enough to do the job. Bait held my interest to the end, even on cable till 430 am. 3 stars.
