Murder holds a small Georgia town in the grip of fear during the first summer of the new millennium, and when all the evidence in the investigation points to a long dead criminal as the culprit, an up and coming attorney is forced to do battle with her own long-buried past in director's Rick Jordan's dark thriller. Though initial inspection by police investigators Kevin Dougherty and Sam Maddox reveals no common factor between the two initial murders, further inspection reveals that they are strangely connected to the legacy of local troublemaker Jesse Lownds; a revelation that may not have been surprising save for the fact that Lownds has been dead and buried for thirty-years. When attorney Alison Davis learns that one of the victims was her business partner and her own connections with Lownds run deeper than she previously thought, the frightened lawyer must team up with the dumfounded detectives to reveal just how a long-dead killer can claim two victims nearly three decades after being laid to rest. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Martin Sheen and his son Charlie Sheen play father and son, appropriately enough, in this tense crime thriller. Bill Patterson (Martin Sheen) is a veteran police detective who works side by side with his son Jake (Charlie Sheen) in the vice squad. Both Bill and Jake share a dedication to their work that often gets in the way of their relationships with others. The job has put a wedge between Jake and his wife Rebecca (Meredith Salenger), and Jake also feels that he's starting to burn out, tired of living in the shadow of his better-respected dad. When a fellow vice detective is killed trying to crack a drug ring, Bill and Jake make it their personal responsibility to bring in the killers and take the drugs off the street. However, they quickly discover that they've severely underestimated the ruthlessness and brutality of the dealers (played by Tina Nguyen, Joe Lando, Courtney Gains, and Bruce Nelson) and that their lives are in great danger. No Code of Conduct was the first feature written and directed by Bret Michaels, who rose to fame in the 1980s as the lead singer with the popular rock band Poison. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
