Don't really have a lot of good things to say about this film.It's a kind of run -of-the-mill 'tv movie'. A lame cop/action thriller with good actors in it basically.I think if ray Liotta and the brilliant Willem Dafoe weren't in this film then it would have already been shown on channel 5 by now.
I was mislead by the trailer which actually made it look quite original and gripping.
A psycopath on death row,(Liotta) is given another chance,in return for testing new,mind altering drugs to help supress anger and make patients see right and wrong and remorse for any wrong doing.A 'reformed' man he is released back into society only for his previous life to catch up with him,and his pscycopathic tendancies to return.
I watched this all the way through but mainly due to Liotta and supporting cast. It's nowhere near as gripping or original as it could have been and the whole thing feels budget and looks poorly directed.
Watchable...but only just.
