Deep in characters this is quite an engaging, but bleak and cold, look at another tortured cop who seeks a second chance. It is a rich storyline that requires the viewer to pay attention with twists and turns and multiple flashbacks.

This barely released movie is worth a view for its rich and layered story that demands some respect despite some indifference from the money-men and critics.
