As others have been so negative, I will try to stress the positive sides. Not that there are many. After all I think the movie only worth 3/10. The reason I watched the movie until the end is the reasonably interesting plot. Sure, the director does his utter best to kill that too. Again he fails. Two cops, who dislike each other, have to protect a witness. One member of their homicide team is an informant for the mob leader of the town. The latter wants the witness to be killed and wants the money she knows about. Admit it: this does not sound too bad.
Indeed, as a result there are a couple of nice scenes. I mean the the "good cop vs bad cop" trick played on the witness and the quarrels between the two.
Being this not a B-movie, but a C-movie at best we cannot expect too much from acting. Fred Williamson did some blaxploitation police stuff in the 70's. It is quite revealing, that he actually is one of the better actors. Gary Busey never rose above D-level. We should be happy, we don't see him too much. But the others really did not annoy me too much. That is quite an achievement in a stupid movie like this.
The main culprit is the script - or what was left from it by the director, if we are to believe Wcmartell. It is awful. My conclusion is, that the idea deserves a remake by a skilled director.
