Terence McDonagh (Nicolas Cage), a homicide detective with the New Orleans Police Department, is promoted to Lieutenant after he saves a prisoner from drowning in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. However, during his heroic act, he severely injures his back and is put on prescription pain medication.
A year later, Terence—struggling with his addictions to sex, Vicodin and cocaine—finds
himself in the battle to bring down drug dealer Big Fate, who is suspected of massacring an entire family of African immigrants.
I thought the movie was great, though I would have enjoyed seeing Val Kilmer more.
This movie is NOT even worth 1 star but that is the lowest rating this site allows! DO NOT WASTE ONE SECOND OF YOUR TIME ON THIS...
one of the worst movies ever produced, really stupid, enough said.
