But he doesn't spend too much time looking, preferring instead to crack the spines of his victims. Seagal plays John Hatcher, a burned-out narcotics agent who resigns from the Drug Enforcement Administration after his partner is killed. He returns to his hometown and finds the city in the thrall of a vicious Jamaican drug gang, led by the nasty Screwface (Basil Wallace). He meets an old friend, now a high school football coach, who tells John about losing his best player and his 13-year-old nephew to drug overdoses. Soon John's family is threatened and his prize Mustang stolen, so John joins forces with his buddy to take on Screwface and the drug gang themselves. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Clint Morris, Moviehole
A bondafide Seagal classic!
-
Chuck O'Leary, FulvueDrive-in.com
Routine violence with one neat twist at the end.
-
Alex Sandell, Juicy Cerebellum
Like almost all of Seagal's pictures -- it's horrid.
-
Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
Typical Seagal formula.
-
John J. Puccio, Movie Metropolis
...in the tradition of all action movies (I think it’s in the contract), the evil doers never just kill the hero.
