This is an average film for me, a true story based on the kidnapping of two police officers and the killing of one of them by two crooks. James Woods delivers a good performance as one of the thugs and is one of the only reasons the film stays alive to be honest, it feels like a TV movie - the court trial isn't exactly `on the edge of your seats` stuff and the ending is particularly cheesy. The film also follows the surviving police officer's life after the kidnapping when there is really no point to. Overall this film was lucky to get three stars, let's just call it a sympathy vote for James Woods.
