Well made thriller with solid performances from Naomie Harris, Frank Grillo and even Tyrese Gibson. Not entirely predictable at least and kept me entertained throughout and didn't run out of gas as sometimes these type of thrillers do in the third act.

A decent flick from Deon Taylor who also directed Traffik from a couple years back which I also enjoyed, mostly for Paula Patton. Probably worth a rental if you like the corrupt cop crime-thrillers. **3.75/5**
