I just don’t know what’s all the fuss about this movie, it isn’t that bad. I think that people expected much more with such names as Bruce Willis and Forest Whitaker and that noir poster, but as always you must lower your expectation with these types of movies.

Trying to make a noir flick second time director/main actor Thomas Jane did manage to create a good movie. It could surely be much better, but this way it possesses some raw quality. Production values are good, although sometimes during the flick some of the scenes may seem childishly made. Story follows a newly wed [...]
