Cop revenge drama.

Stars Nicole Kidman as a very heavily made up and unrecognisable world weary LAPD detective. Her life has fallen apart, her colleagues have written her off, and she's tracking down the gang leader of a team of cold-blooded killers, this is from an undercover assignment from her past. When the leader re-emerges many years later, she tracks him down to finally have her revenge.

Many flash-back sequences explain her motivation, she has an estranged family, and her young daughter is becoming the woman she has already become.

Nicole Kidman is a wasted talent, she's never played this type of hard, gritty character before and shouldn't try again as it either didn't work or she was simply poorly directed. There's a totally unnecessary (kind of sexual) scene with Nicole and a villain in bed, she does him a 'favour' that didn't make sense.

The film pretty much end where it starts, which is becoming a tad cliché. The selling point is Nicole Kidman, who I think was wrongly cast.

Struggles to be a 'B' movie.

score 3/10
