From the production company of Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson comes this embarrassing revenge thriller starring Bruce Willis and Jackson himself. After a diamond heist goes wrong, gangster Sonny (Jackson) goes after the man who betrayed him, with the help of a Mob boss (Willis in slumming-it mode). Needless to say, Jackson can't act and is barely audible; at one point he has to cry, an effect presumably achieved by making him imagine he was no longer disgustingly rich. He takes the whole thing incredibly seriously, which jars with the film's ill-fated attempts at dark humour, resulting in a severely confused tone. There are nods to Quentin Tarantino and Sergio Leone, which feel misjudged in a film which is so badly made that some lines of dialogue are drowned out by the music. Mind you, that could be a blessing in disguise.
