    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Detective Sergeant Tom Brant (portrayed in this movie by Jason Statham) is a character in a series of novels by Ken Bruen. This movie is an adaptation of one of them.
    • Goofs
      When Radnor goes into the bathroom the brown envelope which Weiss steals after killing Radnor, the newspaper journalist, Dunlop, tells Brant & Nash about this. When Weiss is subsequently arrested with the envelope of cash, fingerprints would show Dunlop, Radnor, and Weiss had handled it, tying Weiss to Radnor's murder and giving them the connection to hold Weiss for questioning.

      He *was* held for questioning, then released.
    • Quotes

      Brant: A word of advice, girls. If you're picking the wrong fight... at least pick the right weapon.

    Meh
    Some nice camera work, stylish blurring, but pretty clichéd police drama. Jason Statham does what Jason Statham normally does, he's utterly typecast as kind of British Dirty Harry, but it's not new anymore like it was in Snatch/The Transporter.

    His sidekick is not nearly as interesting as the little guy in Snatch or the girl in Transporter.

    Good work from Aiden Gillen (the guy who played Tommy Carcetti in The Wire) as the bad guy. Zawe Ashton is also interesting as a WPC with a drug problem.

    Mainly the plot seemed a bit disjointed and contrived. Overall it felt like a TV police drama. Nothing special.
