Despite the shakiness of their collective accents, the cast goes through the paces of this tense, testosterone-driven shoot-'em-up with gusto. Read full review

A blandly executed action-thriller whose cast names (Matt Dillon, Willem Dafoe) and mild ’80s Louisiana flavor offer only modest compensations for the story’s workmanlike construction and routine twists. Read full review

A color by numbers action movies. Some of the scenes showcasing Louisiana and the environment are pretty cool and remnisicient of True Detective Season 1.

A crime/action/thriller set in Louisiana with some big names that doesn't quite manage to keep you interested. Bland story and all routine, no twists, just meh. It's not aweful but not worth seeing either.
