Michael Madsen is a hard living cop that finds his crew dying after a drug bust goes wrong. Madsen does his best, but the film seems to get away from him. I don't know if its because he's not strong enough to be lead character but he comes off the worse for ware in a good but unremarkable film which requires little of him other than to talk tough and look mean which reciting meaningful narration. Actually I'm picking on the writing which is actually pretty good and I liked some of the pithy lines of dialog and philosophical narration. Actually the trouble is Madsen who just sort of stands there and broods in a leather jacket. Better is Daryl Hannah looking very good and mean with her hair dyed jet black. Good but not great, worth a look in mindless mode.
