Jesse (Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson) and Mike (Michael Jai White) are brothers. Mike is a hostage negotiator and Jesse is an ex-convict, convicted for shooting his father. Now Jesse is in a bank with hostages while Mike is outside. It appears Jesse has the upper hand as Mike gives into his demands.
The film opens with the ending. And then comes the twist which saved an otherwise boring film. I was not overwhelmed with the story line. The acting was okay, considering.
Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

I have to figure out my demands
Don't waste your time
I loved Michael Jai White in every movie hes been in and the guy was in great shape His kung fu moves and his great acting made all his movies really good. But you know when an actor is all washed up , is when they play in these awful movies , bad acting bad directing .I mean I honestly could have made a better movie with the same lousy actors. Right from the beginning you know this is going to be a flop bank robber has a gun on Michael and instead of Michael taking the gun away from him , the bank robber looks away for no apparent reason and then Michael takes his gun out.Like really the movie is full of weird ideas and you just know that Michael must be hard up to play in this one. Michael White has gotten fat and that might be one reason no one wants him . Just like Steven Seagal he goes from top notch movies to really bad movies. I mean when you're all washed up just quit , why bother ? you just make yourselves look like fools.I guess when you're hard up you take whatever you can get, sad. But a man's gotta eat right. Did you know Steven Seagal and Michael Jai White played in the same awesome movie called Asian Connection. They have really fallen since then!
Not Worth the Slog to Get to the Surprises
Is it worth the slog here to get to the film's surprises? I would say no. During most of the movie, I was thinking they should have sent the cast back to acting school before they filmed this and edited the script so that it wasn't laughably bad.
The twists that do come later, which I won't reveal, can be clever and I didn't guess them but also can be somewhat confusing, at least to me. All in all, I would say save yourself the time--it's not worth it.
