Plot Summary

Felix De La Pena (Emmy Award-winner John Leguizamo) is an armored car driver struggling to make ends meet for his wife Marina (Rosie Perez) and two kids in East LA's Boyle Heights neighborhood. But their lives are thrown into chaos after Felix miraculously survives a violent on-the-job hijacking led by Adell Baldwin (Tyrese Gibson), a merciless criminal driven by power and greed. Now facing a difficult recovery and struggling with a nasty new temper, Felix becomes obsessed with tracking down his attackers before they frame him for the crimes they committed.

Top Critics' Reviews

Fresh: Mr. Furman, who also directs music videos, has given the movie, shot by Lukas Ettlin, a bleached-out, unglossy look. Occasionally the visuals seem overly stylized, but Mr. Furman knows enough to showcase his stars' unvarnished performances. – Rachel Saltz, New York Times, Jun 24, 2010

Fresh: Production values are tops, and Lukas Ettlin's athletic camerawork -- coursing through the streets of Boyle Heights and other Los Angeles locations -- adds a kinetic element to a film that is half thriller, half psychodrama. – John Anderson, Variety, Jun 24, 2010

Fresh: Short on sensational elements but involving, it won't set multiplexes on fire but should make a decent showing thanks to cast and plot. – John DeFore, Hollywood Reporter, Jun 24, 2010
