I can’t really talk about “No Good Deeds” in detail but trust me this is a movie you will want to see. It’s probably one of the best movies I have ever seen. It’s a thriller showcasing two excellent African-American actors Idris Elba and Taraji P. Henson who given the opportunity can showcase the range of emotions and depth that has been limited to us as a group. If you have not seen the trailer of “Good Deeds” check it out.

The film, which was actually made in 2012, was pushed back for release three times. During the filming there was a lot going on. Idris Elba was filming “Mandela” and was traveling back and forth. Taraji shares during the interview that the fight scenes in the movie was very hard.
