Monika with a "k" is how the protagonist of this standard crime drama introduces herself to Reagan, her love interest near the beginning of this silly film. Reagan; yes, like the president has premonitions, with flashes of blood splattered walls, involving Monika, and so he ends up meeting the real woman; or is she a ghost? Who knows or cares by the end of all the flashbacks and endless shootouts and cardboard characters from every movie ever made of this type. Cerina Vincent is the lead actress, and at least she wears sexy low cut jeans and a tank top, as her body seems to possess most of her talent. Jason Wiles is competent enough as her partner, Reagan, throughout the story, but in the end, it is all just a waste of time. In addition, the editing is very choppy, giving the look of an MTV video. Writer-director, Steven R. Monroe needs to find another line of work. If you are in the mood for a female killer movie, rent Kill Bill, and watch the work of a real talent, Q.T.
