For over a decade Joey Gazelle (Paul Walker) has successfully juggled his conflicting roles as loving family man and low-ranking mobster. However, when Joey ignores the mob's explicit instructions to dispose of the gun used in the fatal shooting of a corrupt cop during a bungled drugs operation, he unwittingly puts his loved ones in danger. Joey decides to stash the weapon in his own basement, just in case he should need some future collateral against his employers. Unfortunately, Joeys 10 year old son, Nicky (Alex Neuberger) and his best friend, Oleg (Cameron Bright), stumble across the hidden gun. Worse still, Oleg decides to use it to shoot his physically abusive stepfather who also happens to be connected to the Russian mafia. Thus Joey is forced to embark on a nightmarish 18-hour journey to find Oleg and the gun before his own gang, the Russians or the bent cop (Chazz Palminteri) hell-bent in profiting from the missing weapon, get there first.

Where does slinkily sleazy end and inadvertently off-putting begin? Its a question hanging over Wayne Kramers... read more on Time Out
Saw this at the cinema not even knowing what it was about-not bigtime actors so didnt expect much but it was fantastic-a true 18 rater the way 18s should be! Very violent and messy, VERY graphic, and beware a controversial scene-very shocking!!!!!! but with a strong story line and a wicked twist keeps you on the edge of your seat. Wont say more incase I give away the story but if you like action mixed with thriller and good stories and great acting it MUST NOT BE MISSED!!!!!
This truly is an awful film. Couldn't care less about any of the characters, abysmal acting, terrible pseudo Matrix/Lock, Stock cinematography. Avoid this at all costs, it really is a two-bit MTV style gangster film, awful childish tripe... As you can guess, I turned it off! I advise you not to waste your money watching this.
