Dave Bautista plays an ex cop working as security for an illegal gambling/sex operation which one night gets robbed and the owner's son killed. He is tasked to find the killer but things get complicated when fingers start pointing at him. Fairly decent crime flick which also stars Dominic Purcell, Amy Smart and Danny Trejo. Forgettable but a good job done by Bautista in his first leading role.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

It's not complete garbage, wrestler Dave Batista can't act, and the story is terrible, but it's still at least watchable.

There's potential for a by-the-numbers underworld detective story. Unfortunately, that potential never is realized in Miller's film, a flaccid and convoluted tale of double-crosses.

Rated: 1/4

Muddled and frequently comatose, the picture yearns to be a turbulent ride of crooks and cops, yet it never rises to the occasion, generating a feeble mystery sold by a cast of brutes trying to pass themselves off as actors.

Rated: D
