A maverick Pittsburgh policeman loses his job after he shares his suspicion that one of his colleagues is a serial killer. This thriller centers on his hunt to prove his point, a search that becomes more desperate when the killer begins killing the cop's female associates. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Striking Distance is set and filmed in Pittsburgh, where apparently the three rivers are full of red herrings.
Like the box of generic corn flakes, Striking Distance isn't so terrible, but you'll forget it the second you're done with it. [Blu-ray]
A troubled production (reshoots, release-date postponements) that turned out to be surprisingly watchable.
One of Bruce Willis' most disposable and formulaic action potboilers. I'm a big fan of the Willis, and even I have no patience for "Striking Distance."
A mess, although the stars do what they can with the scattershot screenplay
Not one of Willis' best efforts; very formulaic and uninteresting.
Fails to deliver anything remotely original.
"Who's the best cop now?"When a film's director is named Rowdy Herrington, a name that reminds me of a bad SNL character, the film's gotta be... something something.Herrington has faded from the biz and Willis had his disappointments of his career at the time of this movie. Why Herrington didn't continue making movies

A very good action thriller as a cop thinks another cop might be a serial killer. Plenty of good action scenes, and twists guessing the killer. A very strong cast line up as well. If you've not seen this it's worth checking out!
