User Reviews

Good crime thriller movie, great story and visceral. Worth watching

Was surprised to see the release year of 96 because it felt so fresh. Nothing incredible. But a well-told crime thriller with atmosphere.

Felipe Shccelli

Interesting movie about drug, traffic and street life.

Great feature debut, stylistically different from his recent works.

Haetam Attamimy

Feels raw and natural. Great crime drama with great actors!

Cagliacci Armatura

A gritty and real drama with some acting heavyweights in todays world! Mads is unforgettable as Tonny, expanded upon in the sequels.

What a solid action flick with a stacked cast. People who don’t like foreign films should give this a shot, they make dumb fun action too

Tarantino-esque dialogue with a rough, unpolished vibe. Worth the watch for people with patience and a sense of humor

The main actor does such a good job in this film! Captivating

Adam B. Hausser

Good movie, with a good story that moves a little too slow to be great. Great glimpse into the greatness NWR would soon be making.
