So with me being the movie person that I am I thought I was going to enjoy this way more then I actually did. The problem is any movie person has seen this story before so many times prior. I dried out alcoholic cop that is great at their job, but not reaching their full potential because of the alcohol and some life issue that is causing them to be miserable. This story is no different. A cop from Chicago is now in Europe working. He's very good at his job but the story doesn't really seem to care. The film is just ok. It's like watching a made for TV movie. It's just ok. I don't think I would recommend or view again.
Having SLJ in this movie was a waste of a talent , they failed to make it interesting . Vincent Cassel just basically walking around while Jackson is in scenes .
This movie is dumb and the writing is bad directing equally as bad , this is like a bad b movie you see in tv on Saturday afternoons .
Not suspenseful at all I was very annoyed watching this film . The buildup is just slow and awkward the car chase at the end has death metal soundtrack it's so bad . The editing is ridiculous. The story seems like it was written by someone in high school . I think anyone who pays to see this should get a refund .

I watched this movie at my local movie theater. Looks to be a limited release film. I enjoyed it for what it was. I just wished there was some loose ends sorted out. I highly doubt that there will be a sequel to this. I'd be thrilled if there was. I think this would've worked better as a limited television series. But with a much better ending. I'm surprised Samuel L. Jackson signed up for this film. Definitely feels like a straight to video kind of movie. I would love a part 2 to this. Just to make the ending to this one less crappier. It just feels unfinished to me. In my dreams, I suppose...
Oh dear. I am not sure which high school drama class was responsible for this travesty of a movie but it is unquestionably one of the worst films I have seen in the past decade. An absolutely ridiculous script with terrible acting. This abomination relies on loud scary sound effects, ominous music and recurring dismembered body parts in an effort to retain the viewer's attention or attempt to have some sort of cinematic relevance. There are no redeeming qualities to this film, it fails on all fronts - even the car chase actions seems are sophomoric and absolutely laughable - like the college kids who produced this disaster were excited to get their hands on an Audi and Beemer for the weekend. Incredibly bad.
Movie in English and modern times, set in Scotland, but apart from the establishing shots, it's not possible to confirm location by watching the movie.
Plot: Unlikely investigation of Chicago police office being transfered to "Scotland" to conclude an investigation into a grisly serial killer who's kill signature follows through to Scotland.
What new in the movie genre is the slow burn on the plot. Well sit back, this one takes slow burn to new heights. The Scottish detective stumbles along and draqs the viewer with him and a yawn fest.
The resolve is as unsatisfying as the logic and missed clues pepering the movie. Jackon's performance is way below the standard we hold for him, and it does put a dissappointing stamp on a dissappointing outing.

- TriviaDetective Lawton expresses his love for golf. This is actor Samuel L. Jackson's real life passion and he often has clauses in his movie contracts allowing him time off to play golf.
- GoofsDCI Boyd repeatedly investigates alone. Scottish Police Procedures require two officers at all times for the sake of corroboration. By attending crime scenes, suspects, witnesses or other important lines of investigation alone, he would be ruining any evidence seen or heard, which would be disregarded by Scottish Courts due to lack of corroboration.
