Yet another film made bad by horrible casting choices. Seriously, how can you expect to sellout movie theaters casting Val Kilmer and Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson as your lead roles? To be honest, when I first heard of about this film I was surprisingly excited to see it. I've always liked Val Kilmer and thought this could actually be good. But of course the excitement didn't last long. This film is full of drawn out suspense, horrible acting splashed with horrible Louisiana accents and my favorite part of any film which is getting lost in the story. That said the 6 stars I gave for this film are strictly on the basis of its suspense aspect and any director having the kahunas to put 50 cent in their film should get just a little credit.
