Take a walk on the seamy side of town, where you can't tell the difference between the bad cops and the crooks. Bob Holt (Chris Penn), a corrupt detective knee deep in kickbacks, has an uneasy partnership with a drug-addicted cop (SHAFT'S Jeffrey Wright) and an even shakier alliance with a notorious mob syndicate. When Holt pours the youngest mob brother (Anthony De Sando) into a cement freeway structure, it sets in motion a twisted tale of revenge.
