The old saying is true, and retired homicide detective Eddie Burns (Ving Rhames) is about go to some of the darkest depths imaginable in a desperate bid to rescue his sister from a monstrous maniac (Gary Oldman) whose relentless sadism knows no bounds. Slowly drawn into the dark underworld of drugs and pornography, detective Burns soon learns that the bond he shares with the maniac he stalks runs stronger and deeper than he ever imagined. When the two men come face to face, their worlds collide in a furious blaze of lead and hellfire that threatens to consume their very souls. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
A bleak crime thriller that sinks in its own quicksand.
-
Forrest Hartman, Reno Gazette-Journal
Lacks the tension and cohesion that might have made it good.
-
Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
If you're a diehard fan of Gary Oldman's trademark lunacy, consider Sin a must-see.
-
David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews
It's easy enough to see why Sin didn't receive a theatrical release, but on the small screen with lowered expectations, the film works.
