About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a tough, fast-moving cops-versus-criminals thriller with a strong cast and plenty of shootouts; Not for you if you need fresh twists or a polished feel like In Too Deep.
Pros: strong veteran cast; gritty crime action; brisk runtime | Cons: familiar cop-thriller beats; uneven tension; TV-movie feel
