    • Goofs
      In the hockey arena scene Paul Walker is hit above the eye with the hockey puck and blood starts coming out, yet in the next scene the blood is coming from the mouth, with no apparent damage to his eye.

      Teresa Gazelle: [Teresa observes the hidden closet where obscene child pornography is shown along with body bags and surgical knives] Oh my God... Oh my God!

      [Teresa feels the plastic floor]

      Teresa Gazelle: Oh my God... Oh my God.

      [pause]

      Teresa Gazelle: Oh, you sick fucks!

      Dez: [stutters nervously] You're right, we are. We're sick. We are! This is really great, this is going to help us...

    Pleasantly Surprised

    I wasn't expecting much from this movie with Paul Walker as the star attraction, but this movie was thoroughly entertaining and I would highly recommend seeing it.Paul Walker gives a good performance although Cameron Bright steals the show even though I've always saw the kid as creepy after seeing him in The Butterfly Effect. The action in this movie is non-stop and it keeps you guessing up to the very end. I enjoyed how the movie was shot with New Jersey as a backdrop, the movie covered a lot of ground and used various locations that added to the intrigue. This movie provides a nice twist on modern day mob movies. I do agree with a review that I read that said that the gun floating around served as a maguffin (not sure if I spelled that correct) the action provides a high level of entertainment and excitement.

    • SPOILER.........If Joey was an undercover officer, why did he not report the gun to the New Jersey cops instead of running around all night trying to avoid the cops and the mob?
