Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe original Director's Cut focused on the Annalynne McCord character based on the original script rather than the added role of the Russian mistress played by Kamalya Zahoor. Unbeknownst to the director or the rest of the cast, producer Jeff Most had guaranteed Zahoor's wife a major supporting role, produced and directed a separate music video with her singing in the club, and even shot scenes that were never scripted under the title "Scene X" during principal photography, which they later edited into the final cut.
- GoofsWhen Callahan orders a bourbon neat, the bartender pours him a shot of Johnny Walker Black Label, which is scotch not bourbon. This happens twice in the movie.

Featured review
A bit complex and with some improbable scenes, but generally good
I have always liked Stephen Dorff, but most of his roles have been strong supporting ones. It is pleasant to notify that last years have seen him becoming a leading actor where he virtually fills out a movie (apart from Officer Down, in Brake last year - recommended as well). He can be both a convincing tough cop and a caring family man, a reliable person and a controversial one. As for Officer Down, he (as Detective David Callahan) as well as James Woods (as Captain Verona) provide the biggest value to the movie (the other actors seem to derive from Seagal-Lundgren type of movies). Woods is also an actor who makes movies more interesting to follow.
The plot is slightly cloddish, flashbacks and odd alterations are confusing and some scenes are questionable, especially Logue-related ones. The ending could have been more elaborated, too. Nevertheless, the movie is recommended for killing time and a bit longer than 1,5 hours passes without yawns and/or blah feelings.
