Details

There is no honor without truth. When gang wars spin out of control in downtown Washington D.C., one man steps onto the battlefirld to hunt down a ruthless killer. A young man has been released from prison and is determined to build a new life for himself. Unfortunately, without any prospects in sight, he gets lured back into the only world he knows....crime. He gets in touch with his former best friend who has since "made it big" as a drug dealer during his time in prison. But what starts out as a partnership which promises to get them both out of the projects, soon turns rotten as money comes between the two. As loyalties are divided, anger and violence erupt... destroying anyone who gets in the way. Innocent victims get caught in the crossfire and its up to one man, Police Lieutenet Redding (Morgan Freeman) to take matters into his own hands and stop the needless deaths before it's too late.

GazerRise Fantastic!
ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Sarah Marshal All, This is not a movie. Its like 4 minutes of cut scenes of Morgan Freeman standing over a grave in a trench coat, he mumbles a few times, rubs his brow and then the rest of the movie is not film but someone with a camcorder trying to fill time inbetween the same shots of Morgan Freeman. These guys cashed in on a notable actor back when there was DVD and when Shawshank was playing 4 times a day on TBS and TNT. I'd rate the story or film, but there is none to rate. I'd say watch it if you want to learn what not to do out of film school (or if you never went).Please note there is ZERO production notes, actors, producers, or editors listed on IMDb. Where have you ever seen that? Not even an editor wants to claim this piece of.... work.... for himself. Good night and good luck.
flodanilsson You might think that Morgan Freeman, one of the better actors there is, should be a bit more selective when choosing scripts. This script uses his name and face just to get sold. He has like 15 minutes in the whole movie and not counting the first two lines of speech in the movie, I think it took around 60 minutes before he opened his mouth.This is pure and simple fraud taking in count that Morgan Freemans name and face is dominating the case on the DVD.The movie in it self is, in my opinion also bad, bad acting, bad camera, since I personally don't like rap - bad music and really bad sound! On the DVD, you have one feature, scene access, on the Swedish version of the DVD you weren't even able to change language on subtitles even though there was a place on the menu for this!I read an interesting comment on it on a Swedish film site, this should be sold as a music video for the one and only (I think) rap artist that plays in the soundtrack.My advise to you all, avoid this film as long as possible!For all the two people in the world who might like this movie, don't despair, everyone can't have good taste.
Candice This movie was badly shot, the sound was awful and the acting left little to be desired. It was your typical clichéd run-of-the mill gangster film, trying to be sentimental. Do not rent this movie, there is a reason it went straight to video! I watched the film because my boyfriend had chosen it, he then decided to fall asleep next to me and forced me to torment myself by watching the movie until the end. The cast is unknown, the director was probably doing a favour for someone's uncle's cousin's kid. That or he was desperate for the cash. I'm all for supporting up-and-coming young Hollywood hot shots but this was abysmal. Morgan chose to let his name be associated with this movie, that makes him guilty of forcing us viewers to watch a really bad film!!!! How many times can Morgan Freeman play the good cop facing troubled times? Enough already!
beulah1361 I was shocked when I saw this movie after renting it from blockbuster! Freeman about 10 minutes in the whole movie, OK maybe 15! I was amazed at the cheap way he was sliced into the movie. I guess he was trying to help the producers sell this movie! The story line has been done before remember Menace to Soceity?
