I really like Karl Urbain and it nice to see him not in a sidekick role)
Nothing special,but enjoyable little flick to spent some time...
not as bad as some say...
So, where, for the love of all that is holy, is this movie supposed to be taking place? Apparently it is supposed to be somewhere in the U.S., because otherwise what the hell are all these Americans doing in the movie. Originally Karl Urban's Jeep appears to have Louisiana Plates on it, but in every scene with multiple back ground cars, there are lots of cars that aren't even sold in the U.S.
I also need to point out that NO police force in the U.S. has ever used BMW E36 sedans as cop cars, or Land Rover Discoverys, at least that I can find. And those police badges on the sleeves of their uniforms could not be more generic. Maybe this movie suffered from High Definition clarity.
Also, the establishing shots for the locations are bizarre and simply wrong, and the cops all sound like they're from New York.
It's just so confusing. As if the producer and director had never set foot in the U.S. and was just guessing at what it would look like.
I've seen worse movies, but this one had the potential to be much better, regardless of the rehashed plot. At least I don't feel the need to find these people and ask them for my time back.

I quite liked this movie, just above average. I don't know why so many people had reviewed this film and say that it is a rehash, been done so many times before. Er hello, what film has'nt been done many times before. Even classics like the Big Sleep were done before. Superman....he can fly and can save the world..rehash. Detective or detectives find out who the bad guy is. NCSI. CSI...Sherlock Holmes.
Just because the film did not have a shoot out and car chase every five seconds, does not mean it was a bad film. Or was it because people had to concentrate on the dialogue.
As I said its an ok film.
This is not a bad little crime story. However, Karl Urbans abilities are not enough to carry the movie on its own. The supporting casts acting skills are mostly not up to scratch and the movie seems to have been clearly made on a low budget.
