Avis à la une
Can you have a second chance to stop a tragedy? After losing his wife and child, undercover cop John Hebron (Gooding Jr.) is struggling to forgive himself for not saving them. After a similar crime takes place he is given a second chance. After watching Cuba in "Ticking Clock", which I really liked, I had high hopes for this one. I was a little disappointed. The idea of the movie is very interesting, but the execution is lacking. A plot that has so much potential ends up being slow moving and never given the push it needs to make it as interesting as it sounds. This is not a terrible movie, but definitely not one of Cuba's best. It would be nice to see him get out of the Seagal, Kilmer & Snipes-like direct-to-video movies though and back into main stream movies. He has the talent for them still. I give it a C.
Would I watch again? - I don't think I will.

This movie tackles the theme of cops against drug dealers, a theme that has been seen hundred times a year in movies, and I don't think this movie made any significant contribution to this worn out subject. The cops are always good, but have their problems, and the drug dealers are always bad guys who must be brought to death, before they ruin the whole world. We really don't care so much about the characters in the movie, it is like we already know what will happen to them, because the story line is very predictable. I've seen another better movies about it, and I think this is a very cliché movie without any reward to the viewer, a mere pastime, but there are better ways to waste your time. I recommend it only to the big fans of this threadbare genre...
Vulgarities or not, I'm always more attracted to good storyline. Seeing that it's a recent movie, I thought at the very least it should be more presentable. Alas, what do I see, but gratuitous almost sex scenes (with no private part exposure), excessive foul language, and bad acting from the side characters left a nasty nasty taste in my mouth.
The acting is even more forced and unnatural than acting school, and these mafias (not the most difficult role) can't even do it convincingly. However I must make special mention and (I specially went to find out his name)Zion Lee playing Rook if i'm not wrong, the guy who is naked half the time and speaks nothing but F words, wins the champion in bad acting. It's so bad, I don't even feel like wasting my words to explain why.
Heavily laden with drug abuse, sexual content, and obscenities, on the overall, it's crass and unwarranted. A movie experience that people in this century shouldn't even be experiencing.

Wow, what a trainwreck. Where to begin...I suppose by this time you have more than recognized Cuba's downward spiral but teaming him up with Slater is an even more embarrassing turn for both actors. Slater has been pawning off his creepy yet campy style for years now and occasionally pulls of an entertaining performance (Dolan's Cadallac, He was a quiet man), but here he just swims in the dreck. Horribly miscast as a priest, he can do little more but smirk at the camera and look at his shoes. Devon Bostik is laughable as a drug dealer - I mean really, Wimpy's kid's big brother is now a tough guy? Just a total mess and a shame for all involved. I had hopes that Cuba would rebound at some point, but he seems determine to join Wesley and Steven Seagal in the DTV "worst of" series. Seriously, don't waste your time or money on this, bad bad bad.
well, from the first scene to the end... a waste of my time... this movie is sooooo bad. When I saw and read the box at the video store, I thought: okay I like Cuba and Christian... til I started to watch... I gave it my due attention and suffered until the end but OMG... time I will never get back...
My first impressions were: Bad lighting, bad cinematography, bad direction, and then... bad acting! This looks more like a film school project gone wrong then a feature film... It even looks like it was shot on early HD ENG cameras...
And if you are brave, start watching the behind the scenes featurette... they didn't even use a proper mic to record these (terribly done) interviews. This whole project should have been terminated from day 1.
