    • Trivia
      Jessica Shepard's promotion from Officer to Inspector isn't as big a jump as it sounds. The S.F.P.D., unlike nearly all other municipal police departments, does not have a traditional Detective rank. The Inspector rank is simply the next rank above Officer, and an Inspector's responsibilities are exactly like those of a Detective in most other police departments.
    • Goofs
      In the early bar scene with Jessica and John talking at the pool table, Jessica rolls the 8-ball into the corner pocket. Seconds later it appears in its original spot.
    • Quotes

      Wilson Jefferson: [Over the radio] We heard everything, commissioner.

      Jessica Shepard: [smugly] You remember my old patrol partner Wilson don't you?

    Mediocre film but with continuous intrigue and tension
    The picture deals about Jessica(Ashley Judd) a tough police, she's recently promoted to homicides brigade of San Francisco.Her mentor is John Mills(Samuel L.Jackson) who was pal of the late father,a serial killer who murdered to her mother.Meanwhile, she picks up attractive men in bars and has sex with them,but they start dying around her and she is the center of her proper investigations converting in the principal suspect.Jessica will have to prove to her superiors(Russell Wong) and her partner Mike(Andy Garcia) that she's not behinds the killings.

    In the picture there are tense,intrigue,emotion,drama and is quite entertained.However the argument is a bit confused and embarrassed with a some gaps plot. The movie is a crossover of means of investigation of ¨CSI¨,of the thriller ¨Seven¨ and warped intrigue of¨Along came a Spider¨. From the beginning to the end the suspense is continued ,happening numerous surprises and events.The title film is pretty fitted but storyline is very twisted.Cinematography by Peter Deming is murky and dark with only exception when the protagonists are going in a speedboat for the docks and shore of San Francisco. Ashley Judd interpretation is nice.Samuel L.Jackson repeats similar roles than Morgan Freeman in his playing as Alex Cross in¨Kiss the girls¨,¨Along came the spider¨ and ¨under suspicious¨; although with more final surprises. The motion picture is regularly directed by Philip Kauffman. Rating : Average but amused.
