As the latter dispassionally murders nearly every rival, bystanders and others in his implacable pursuit. As violence and mayhem ensue after a hunter stumbles upon a deal goes wrong and while a valuable cash is attempted to retrieve near the border. Good men can do bad things ! You can't stop what's coming. One opportunity can change your life, one mistake can destroy it! . There are lo laws left!

This is a brutally entertaining thriller with intrigue , suspense, plot twists and lots of violence . Concerning a merciless manhunt, as a cop desperately attempts to keep one step ahead, but the unstopped chase from this bloody hunt starts to flow more and more behind him with relentless intensity as the contract killer closes in. Set in Los Reyes County Arizona where returns a patrolman well played by Patrick Wilson - he replaced Timothy Olyphant- as the officer in law tracks down a cruel murderer committing grisly killings, being stunningly performed by John Leguizano in a similar role to Javier Bardem's No Country for Old Men. Remaining cast are pretty good with notorious actors giving acceptable interpretations, such as : Ian McShane, Lynn Collins, Jim Belushi, David Stevens, Michael Flynn, among others.

It contains atmospheric and evocative cinematography by cameraman Jose David Montero, shot on location in Los Ángeles, California. As well as thrilling and enjoyable musical score by Juan Navazo, including some songs in Mexican style. The motion picture was well directed by Gonzalo López Gallego . This Spanish director is a good professional who has made some nice films as Nomads , Sobre Arco Iris , Rey de montaña, Backdraft 2 and two hits : Apollo 18 and Open Grave . Rating : 6/10. Acceptable and passable. The flick will appeal to Patrick Wilson fans and thriller enthusiasts.
