What could have been a standard "small town corrupt cops" action thriller ends up being a lot more, due to clever twists on the premise and great acting from Aaron Pierre. It's nice to see an "ex-Marine" protagonist that isn't a grizzled combat vet who fires as many pithy one-liners as he does bullets. Instead, he's calm and steady and uses his head instead of guns. This movie won't win awards, but it's definitely worthy of watching, as a more-than-solid ride that's entertaining until the end.
