Synopsis
Carlito's Way: Rise to Power (2005), directed by Michael Bregman, is the prequel to Brian De Palma's 1993 crime film — watch it online on iFILM. Jay Hernandez plays young Carlito Brigante, the man Al Pacino portrayed in the original, back when he was still climbing through the streets of Spanish Harlem in the 1960s, long before the name carried weight.
Two loyal partners keep him moving; the mob bosses above and the codes of the block keep him in check. Luis Guzmán, Mario Van Peebles, Giancarlo Esposito, and Burt Young fill out the cast. Released direct to video, the film skips the operatic scale of the De Palma picture but delivers the raw origin story of a character the 1993 film had no time to explain.
