This was a very well made TV movie.*POSSIBLE SPOILERS* It is more than just your usual car chase movie taking place on the Western frontier. This movie follows two sheriff's deputies as they stumble upon a drug deal gone bad. They then decide to take a large sum of money that they find on the scene, but complications arise when a Federal Detective steps in and tries to find out what really happened. There aren't really any famous actors who play in this film. The biggest one would have to be Peter Coyote as the town's sheriff who is having marital problems. ROUTE 9 is one of the best made for TV movies that I have ever seen. More complications arise when the two deputies discover that one of the men killed at the site was an undercover agent (Silas Weir Mitchell) for the government...and he was still alive when they stole the money, and he had a recording device attached to his shoulder. This makes matters worse. Christopher Murray even has a part in the beginning as the ring-leader of the drug dealers. ROUTE 9 is a superior TV movie. I give it the TV movie award of excellence. Just playing. But for being a TV movie, this one wasn't bad. Let's see what else they got at Hollywood. 5/5.
