The stunning story of the biggest investment fraud in U.S. history comes to the big screen in this high-stakes crime drama starring Aidan Quinn, Andy Garcia, Mario Van Peebles, and Gina Gershon. Shortly after vanishing without a trace, fugitive Los Angeles financer Charlie Wright (Quinn) turns up in Tijuana with $2 billion in cold hard cash. Now it seems that the FBI may be the least of Charlie's concerns. Mexican drug trafficker Jorge Garza (Garcia) is drowning in debt. With his empire on the line and his family falling to ruin, Garza recruits a small army of crooked cops to track Charlie down, and seize his stash at any cost. Meanwhile, an influential Russian mobster is none too happy about being swindled out of his ill-gotten earnings by the smooth-talking grifter, and dispatches an experienced team of mercenaries led by cold-hearted killer Damon (Luke Goss) to recoup his losses, and bring Charlie back to face the consequences of his actions. As the criminals close in on Charlie from all sides, his best hope for survival is to be captured by FBI Agent Hobbs (Van Peebles) first. With his future hinging on the capture of the criminal who once slipped through his fingers, Agent Hobbs becomes determined to smoke out Charlie, and see that justice is served. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

      Maybe I'm just into good stories, told simply, well-acted and shot beautifully, and that's what you get here. Not a big budget studio flick, but this is the definition of great indie film. Impressive editing and a great score set the pace and tone for a well-written crime drama featuring some of Hollywood's finest actors. Strong performances are a testament to first time director, R Ellis Frazier, who seems to have maximized his cast and crew to get a big budget feel out of a low budget indie. I'm impressed with Frazier's writing too as he layers the action and drama with reflections of remorse over greed and redemption in the light of despair. Put this one on your list and enjoy some solid filmmaking.
