Mourning morphs into revenge when a decorated war hero returns home from the battlefield to bury his wife and child after the pair are viciously killed by the criminal forces that have overrun the family's once-peaceful neighborhood of Rockaway, Queens. Trane (Nicholas Gonzalez) was fighting for his country when he received the news that his family back on the home front had been violently taken from him. Shortly after Trane arrives in Rockaway, his old friend Dave (Ricardo Chavira) presents a grim picture of their neighborhood's tragic downfall: Criminals and prostitutes have taken over the streets, making life for law-abiding citizens a living hell. It isn't long before Trane's grief turns to bloodlust, and the soldier who was trained to kill uses his lethal skills to take on powerful neighborhood crime boss Juju (Mario Cimarro). But Trane has underestimated Juju's power, and after coming face to face with the relentless kingpin's right hand man Antwan (Manny Perez) the fearless vigilante discovers that his own sister Cari (Delilah Cotto) has become hopelessly entangled with a gang of Russian mobsters led by shrewd criminal Ivan (Oleg Taktarov). On a street where every step could be his last, Trane must now tread carefully as he works his way up the criminal food chain straight to the man who authorized the murder of his innocent wife and child. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

A man who has made good in an illegal business discovers going straight is a more complicated matter than he imagined in this urban drama. Victor Rosa (John Leguizamo) is a drug dealer who has made a small fortune selling a heroin-based drug cocktail he's concocted called "Empire." Victor doesn't see himself as a dope pusher; instead, he considers himself an entrepreneur and a businessman who is simply making the most of the economic opportunities presented to him in the ghetto. Through his girlfriend Carmen (Delilah Cotto), Victor makes the acquaintance of Jack Wimmer (Peter Sarsgaard), an upscale investment banker who admires Victor's business savvy and street smarts. Victor is interested in getting out of drug dealing and into a legitimate business, and when Jack offers Victor the chance to buy into a new business, Victor eagerly accepts and makes a good profit in the deal. After this, Victor is all the more enthusiastic when Jack gives him the opportunity to invest in a much bigger project; the price, however, is more than Victor can afford, and he has to borrow from another high-stakes drug dealer, La Columbiana (Isabella Rossellini) in order to make the nut. It isn't long before Victor learns La Columbiana is not a good person to be in debt to -- and that Jack may not be all he imagined him to be. Empire marked the directorial debut of dancer and choreographer Franc Reyes; the supporting cast includes Denise Richards, Sonia Braga, Ruben Blades, and rapper Fat Joe. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

A college student is murdered at a biker bar. At first, detectives Briscoe (Jerry Orbach) and Curtis (Benjamin Bratt) believe that the solution to the case hinges upon interrogating the hard-case bar patrons. Ultimately, however, the answer lies somewhere within the mysterious world of the Internet, a world in which the younger Curtis is far more "at home" than his veteran partner. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
