Description

John Travolta, Morgan Freeman, and Brendan Fraser (The Mummy) lend their talents to this searing detective thriller. Travolta plays Carson Philips, a hard-drinking LA private eye who takes a case in his old hometown of Galveston, Texas. While searching for a missing woman, Philips must confront a crime boss (Freeman), a shady doctor (Fraser), a sexy club singer (Kat Graham, "The Vampire Diaries"), his former lover (Famke Janssen, X-Men)—and his own dark, disturbing past.

    I enjoy film noir. John Travolta was worth watching.

    Make your own decision. This is film noir, it purposely follows a cliche style. The voiced over narrative with sub-plots to the main story. If you haven’t studied film, no big deal. You don’t need a degree to judge enjoyment. There are some slow parts to this movie and the character development is anorexic. But stick it out-the plot is worth it. The acting a tad thin but the reappearance of Brendan Frasier is welcomed, and enjoyed his character. It’s a decent movie when looking at the whole, from a genre perspective it hits all the marks. I enjoyed it.

    It was a slow burn movie. Brandon Fraser acting was good. However, the plot had some holes in it. The script could have been better.
  • Never liked it

    I would rather watch Nine Lives (2016) than watch this horrible piece of crap. Thank god I never watched it, or else it would have wasted my time
  • So boring and stupid!

    I smoked a lot of weed and then put this movie on..the acting was solid (with Travolta being exceptionally good), but the plot and writing felt like it was maybe the second draft (and they said 'ehh good enough'. Cinemetography was great (except for a hospital scene that felt like a 'made for TV movie'). The biggest trouble with the film (i found), was the sound editing. Often times the background was way louder than the dialogue and was kind of comical at times. So in all, I give it a 7/10 for doing it's film noir style and John Travolta's character
