There is no honor without truth. When gang wars spin out of control in downtown Washington D.C., one man steps onto the battlefirld to hunt down a ruthless killer. A young man has been released from prison and is determined to build a new life for himself. Unfortunately, without any prospects in sight, he gets lured back into the only world he knows....crime. He gets in touch with his former best friend who has since "made it big" as a drug dealer during his time in prison. But what starts out as a partnership which promises to get them both out of the projects, soon turns rotten as money comes between the two. As loyalties are divided, anger and violence erupt... destroying anyone who gets in the way. Innocent victims get caught in the crossfire and its up to one man, Police Lieutenet Redding (Morgan Freeman) to take matters into his own hands and stop the needless deaths before it's too late.

I'll tell you why so serious
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
This makes you wonder if someone "stole" Morgan Freeman. I suspect he was abducted and used without his permission! His work is always so much better than this. The movie was poorly written. It was poorly made, and poorly directed. This movie contains almost no real footage with Morgan Freeman in it. No one should rent or buy this movie based on his "presence" in the film. As an avid supporter of Morgan Freeman, I honestly believe that there is something afoot here. It's as if it was sold to him as one project and then post-production became something totally different. I wonder why he didn't fight this. It's pure crap.
We rented this movie for one reason: Morgan Freeman. Unfortunately, Morgan Freeman's largest part in this movie is on the DVD box. I like Morgan Freeman, but this whole movie, and especially his supposed part in it, is a fraud. I HATE gang-banger gibberish and subliterate street jargon, and that's all this movie is. Whatever hidden cautionary tale this movie is supposed to convey is buried under cubic yards of blithering idiocy. If you want to see what is in this movie without paying for it, just go over to the bad side of what ever city you live in and you'll see plenty of it. Whatever you do, don't waste your time or money on this movie if you are wanting to see Morgan Freeman--he just isn't there. Rating: a big goose egg -- 0. There's not one redeeming quality to this movie, not even the big name "associated" with it.
I only rented the movie because Morgan Freeman was in it and it turns out he wasn't really in it at all. He should be ashamed to associate his name with this trashy effort - I can't even call it a movie. It is a shame I can no longer associate Morgan Freeman with quality films without first checking reviews. Thanks for the opportunity to trash this stinker. The doggie style scenes did it for my grown up daughter. It was the final straw in an already straw ridden catastrophe.
If you can call it that. We rented this film from our television company because of Morgan Freeman. Should have realised something was wrong when there was no preview for the film. However, we thought, Morgan Freeman, great actor. The only thing he's been in recently that stank was DreamCatcher. Pretty safe bet. We sat through over 20 mins of this piece of drivel before we couldn't take it anymore. My step-son was being punished, no TV or movies. Even he was eager to go back to his punishment after that 20 mins. That's gotta say something.
