About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a gritty, fast-moving revenge-driven cop thriller with lots of brawls and shootouts, in the vein of Payback or The Punisher; Not for you if you need a deep plot or lighter violence.

Pros: relentless street-level action; memorable villain energy; gritty Brooklyn vibe | Cons: thin, repetitive story; uneven pacing; heavy, brutal violence
