I really enjoyed this movie is it because I'm a fan of Ray either way it had me in grossed in finding out who the killer was . I think certainly worth watching . Super sad Rays not around to do more movies 😭

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

A pretty good cast but the acting makes me question if they just needed the money so threw this together. And why would the killer think to put the cork back in the bottle as he’s about to kill someone. Cringe

This movie was awful. I've always been a fan of Ray Liota but this was definitely not his best work.

Reviews are unfairly negative on this film….premise is very good that's why I watched it on Prime…..it moves fast so gets right to the conclusion quickly. Was disappointed that cop's partner was not more cautious than falling in the killer's traps. Her cop partner had more sense about same man "accidentally" showing up in all the places she went to. Have to admit the end was a surprise….who killer really was…..but then to jump to next scene with Ray Liotta and new baby was a bit much.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

A very straight forward detective movie and having the late great Ray Liotta is always a plus.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
