3/5

Small in scope but smart in the way it deals with how cosy communities react when something rotten surfaces in their world.

It might be fair to investigate if "Josh Sternfeld" is a programming language, not a director.

Good but perhaps not good enough, "Meskada" can be thought of as solid letter-grade-B work.

C-

Efforts are muddled and the story incomplete, making the feature limp along, in search of something substantial and focused to lean against. While initially moody and raw, the film quickly falls apart.

The script needs a map -- or a world atlas, for that matter -- because it has no clue where it's going or how to get there.

I actually enjoyed this movie. It was interesting and enjoyed the acting by Kellan Lutz and Norman Reedus.

Great movie. I watched it because I'm a huge fan of Stahl and Tucker. Sucks that Tucker received 4th billing after a 'Twilight' actor. Tucker, with his list of acting credentials, definitely deserved 3rd billing. At least.

Um... okay, movie with no point and no resolve.

An indie cop drama with nice performances by the B-list cast of actors. The pacing is a bit slow, and there isn't much suspense as you see who perpetrated the murder from the beginning. The tension comes in from the lead investigator returning to the "other side of the tracks" where he grew up in order to find the killer. Likable enough.

I watched this movie because of the cast only to be extremely disappointed! The plot was crap the dialogue was worse! And the ending was disappointing!
