and I think it's one of those movies that screams "MICHAEL MANN".I wanted to like it but it left me wanting much more.I'd like to see some reviews.

True !

That was exactly what I was thinking! The cast is good but the movie is missing a good story line. It is too simple! Could also use a bit more action!

i just thought "this blows". and not in a good way. not like that movie "blow" or anything. it just blew. didnt keep me entertained, didnt stimulate my mind either.

its sad that people cant make a good movie with a few millions to their disposal...

The number of plot holes in this movie makes me suspect they had the grip just make it up on the morning of filming rather than hire a screenwriter.

A decent cast squandered.

i seen it yesterday and...

not a bad film but nothing great either.

all in all i give it a 6-7/10. i went with a 6/10 though, but i definitely would not give it less than a 6/10. it would be one of those films that would be 'good for tv'.

so basically it's one of those films you would have to generally like the actors involved or start running out of the higher quality films to watch.

I found many resemblances to Desperado in style and in the story..As for the movie...could have been something.

Michael Mann used to be the byword name for quality, but then the Miami Vice film happened.

Every artist has their lesser works. Spielberg had "Empire of the Sun" and Celtic Frost had COLD LAKE, so it happens. Even God created the cockroach.
