Probably the best movie of 2002 that nobody actually saw. A hard-hitting, realistic look at the undercover police world with a bitter taste of the cases that they work. Jason Patric and Ray Liotia play the parts of two Detroit police offers tasked with bringing the killers of a fellow undercover officer to justice.

Really solid and dark gritty crime drama featuring great performances from both Ray Liotta and Jason Patric. Probably a bit overlooked film from Joe Carnahan but I really found it engrossing. This was only my second viewing, last time was the DVD from circa 2003 and finally re-watched thanks to the Arrow Films 4K release. **4.25/5**
