Carlito's Way: Rise to Power (2005)

The world of heroin smuggling and marketing, especially that portion of the dope-racket universe that is contained within Harlem, USA, is full of colorful, excitable characters who yearn, love, play, and war hard. The title crook in Carlito’s Way: Rise to Power (2005) is a prodigy of the mean streets, a huge-hearted emperor urchin whose ambition propels him to the upper echelons of the gangster elite and ultimately robs him of the one thing that is his alone to lose--his soul. Violent, charismatic, sexually charged. That was Carlito, and such is Carlito’s Way.
