Movie Info

ACTION

A different action and revenge picture regarding corrupt cops, the mob and a tape recorder!! The action sequences are different because it is not "John Woo-ish" kind of action but instead of action it uses some gory scenes on some of the action sequences such as when a cop shoots a bad guy on the forehead and it pushes him back so hard that his head was able to come completely off once hitting a sticked out metal tray or the bad guy getting himself tangled onto the elevator lines- splitting his body in half. As soon as I saw this film I was hoping that a sequel would be made as result of this, but unfortunately the film didn't do too well upon it's release.
