Viewing Notes
Samuel L. Jackson as a badass crooked cop. I’m in.
I had my reservations about this film, but it was on cable and sucked me in. Jackson is great here, you get a sense of crazy in his eyes. Patrick Wilson is serviceable, but this is Samuel L. Jackson’s movie. Very enjoyable and tense in all the right places. A bit over the top in parts, but a lot of fun.
