HUNT FOR JUSTICE is one of many TV movies from the IN THE LINE OF DUTY series, all of them based on fact. Each film is fairly low budget and plays out events in a grittily realistic way and this one is no exception. The hunt is on for a gang of terrorists who have murdered a cop in the line of duty, and middle-aged Adam Arkin is leading the squad. The best thing about this film is the cast which is made up of endless familiar faces. Miguel Ferrer, Dean Norris, John Carroll Lynch, Melissa Leo and Stephen Root are welcome presences in any production and they're typically solid here, making this more watchable than most TV movies despite the deficiencies of the scripting.
