content: On the edge of your seat excitement, great acting, great plot, wonderful ending. Just loved it. Mos Def is an astonishingly great actor. Don't know a thing about his rap music, but have seen him in several films, including "Something the Lord Made", and give him two thumbs up for being able to act like a pro.This is a true thriller - bad cops, bad cop turned good, petty criminal who wants to change, car chases, crowded NY streets, and everything in between.Give it a try and ignore the critics.
