Terribly boring for a crime drama, but the real tragedy is the quality of the digital transfer: more noise than a death metal concert.

only giving it 1 star because I can't give it 0. Don't waste your time on academy award winners....

The car following the hijacked train on the "L" is the best ever in film history. Hey Google where is the movie, "The Seven-ups" 2nd best car Chase scene ever! You need to get that ASAP
