worth the time

This was one of the those movies you rent thinking, well I hope this the doesn't completely waste 2 hours of my life, and then by the end of the movie you kind of wish it wasn't over.

You don't need to see the first one to follow this, it is pretty easy, but a great plot. It is based on a true story, and is a great plot.

Louis Gossett Jr returns to the same magic he had in Iron eagle, and Jonathan Silverman plays a great role.

The plot is about a couple of guys involved in credit fraud, and they get the postal inspectors involved.

Enjoy

Unlike most sequels, this one is equal to its predecessor

Most sequels try to capitalize on an earlier success by "slapping together" a production. Not this one. I hope that number two is the second of a series of equal quality. Gossett and Silverman make a good team and give excellent performances. The story revolves a con man who is using stolen mail to get credit cards issued in someone else's name. He kills a bank teller to cover his tracks and comes close to killing another. Excellent editing and directing.

Great to see them back!

It was a pleasure seeing Gossett and Silverman recreating their characters in a movie even better than the original. While the crime being investigated is less dramatic than in the first film, it is both more common and -- as the film develops -- creepier, creating a feeling of threat that any viewer can feel. Once again the plotting and dialog never strokes a false note and the film-making craftsmanship keeps things cooking along at just the right pace, intermixing the criminal investigation with the exploration of characters you'd like to have as friends. I hope there'll soon be a number 3.

Enjoyable.

This film is one of the better TV-films I ever saw. The acting is OK, the story is enjoyable and there are some memorable funny and tense scenes. There's nothing award-worthy here but it's certainly different than most made-for-TV-movies. I've always found Louis-Gosset Jr. to be under-appreciated, but it's mostly Jonathan Silverman who surprised me with a solid performance. Michael Madsen is OK, but he's a ghost of his other bad characters like his Mr. White. The story is a pretty basic cops-chase formula: the two inspectors gotta catch a serial killer before he kills again. It's no lethal weapon but it has it's funny moments. It's certainly not a waste of time...so have a look when you have the chance.

Postal inspectors investigate identity theft

This is way above the general standard of TV movies. Beautifully acted by the two likable leads as well as terrific baddie who reminds me of an actor from years ago who always played baddies but I cannot remember his name (Barry something?). An unusual plot, identity theft and a very credible storyline apparently based on truth, albeit probably a composite, it moves at a cracking pace grabs you by the throat from the very beginning and does not let go until the last frame. Throw in the odd bit of humor and crisp direction and cinematography and you have a movie that could easily have been shown in movie theaters. My only criticism is that these guys are postal inspectors and you just have to wonder where all the real policemen were. Just sit back in your armchair and enjoy.
