A woman asks her lawyer ex-husband to defend her career criminal brother. He is accused of killing a District Attorney. Nashville resident Casey McKay discovers there is a web of conspiracy surrounding this murder. Mr. Gates is a corrupt land developer and he manipulates people with threats to do his dirty work. Jay was freed from jail but he met with underworld gangster Gates to tie up some loose ends. Jay’s son is worried that Jay will go back to the life of crime. Gates “persuades” Jay to do a job for him, like it or not.
This is a good guys versus bad guys film. Casey is smart as a lawyer, he knows how to handle himself with criminals and he’s good with a gun. Previously, Eric Close was in Nashville and Without a Trace. This film is similar to Justified with Eric Close as a stand-in for Timothy Olyphant. The pace is slow and it’s easy to figure out where this is going. Just a few side steps to keep you watching. Seems low budget but some action is better than no action? 3* (This move is OK)
99 min, Action directed by Brent Christy and written by Shea Sizemore and Jason White with Eric Close, Nick Searcy, Tommy Flanagan, Tanya Clarke, Kevin Sizemore, Gregory Alan Williams, Mark Ashworth, Christian James, Kristopher Wente, Gunner Willis, Brian Lafontaine.
Special Note: Filmed in Toccoa Georgia.
