Farell and Norton clash as opposite ends of a family embroiled in police corruption and multiple homicide. A slow burn movie saved by a few moments of genuine excitement, the all star cast tries hard to maintain an air of quality to a film that could well have been aired as an episode from any one of a plethora of the cops and robbers dramas on TV these days. Lame ending robs it of even more kudos and ensures this remains a momentarily enjoyable, yet forgettable, dramatisation of NYPD cop life.
