This is what it would have been like if Robert Rodriquez and Quentin Tarrantino had directed The Sopranos.
Wayne Kramer developed a hyperkinetic masterpiece of action and violence here. Bullets fly, people die, and lies are told.
A simple premise of a gun has to disappear in a drug deal gone bad. We follow the gun over eighteen hours as it passes from bad guy to bad guy with Paul Walker chasing it down all night long.
It is worth watching for the style alone. The story is really secondary to everything else.
This is a bullet ballet in the most modern sense with few sympathetic characters, in fact two are out and out evil. You'll know the couple I mean when you see it. It'll make your skin crawl.
