Out on the town for a night of debauchery turns sour when four friends cross a nasty drug dealer on the wrong side of the tracks. Despite a decent cast of up-and-comers (Jeremy Piven, Cuba Gooding Jr., Stephen Dorff) this thriller falls flat. This begins with the lackluster performance of Emilio Estevez as the lead. While his performance is high in intensity, he is remarkably outshined by antagonist Denis Leary. As a convincing sociopath, Leary spouts his lines like a man with more than a few gripes. His constant chase and unruly behavior is what keeps the suspense at a steady pace. The climax is anything but as the film ends with a soft thud.
