      Maddox: Prisoners know what's going on?

      Weller: As far as they know, its an earthquake. We tell them what's out there and they might get real Catholic real fast. I prefer them the way they are now.

      Maddox: I'm Catholic.

    Poorly developed movie
    Plenty of uselless scenes to pad the run time because the script is pretty lousy.

    Not much though was put into the operation of police procedures.

    Not that it has to follow every rule of law but it should have some sort of realism to it. Guns uniforms and general operation should be something more reaslistic - as well as when bullets hit walls and window...things tend to explode or break apart - but not in this movie.

    I've seen worse and I know there are many other worse movies out there - but this is not really good.

    I invested money into this, but if I had any input in the production, it would be 10 000 times better than it is, so my investment was only money and not any decisions behind the making of this mess.

    With the money spent on this, I could have made something far better than this mess and had the proper actors to fill the roles.
