Goofs:
Errors in geography: Port Arthur, TX, is an inland swamp city. There are no white sandy beaches with 30' cliffs, and none of the thick-bladed grass found on California beaches, as shown in the final scene. It doesn't even face the Gulf of Mexico, so there's not even any surf. Just a shallow muddy lake. more

Gritty, violent, tough guy Keitel tour-de-force, 27 May 2002
6/10
Author: George Parker from Orange County, CA USA

Keitel runs, walks, staggers, stumbles, and crawls through "City of Industry" to settle a score with fellow thief Dorff in this surprisingly entertaining but gritty and violent action/drama from the same mold as "Reservoir Dogs". Janssen plays a babe (what else?) caught up in the vendetta filmed in just about every seedy part of Los Angeles. Good stuff for crime buffs and Keitel fans into violent gangster-type flicks.
