Don Johnson stars as Jerry Beck a renegade cop who takes on a group of white supremists who are responsible for knocking off a black store owner and hispanic restaurant owners in this standard cop actioner which does have it's moments of entertainment such as the scene where Johnson throws up on one of his suspects or the showdown Johnson has with a shrink. Overall Dead Bang may not be a classic but it does live up to it's title.
