As far as DTV action/crime thrillers go, this one is pretty good. Anything with Frank Grillo gets the benefit of the doubt, and they threw in Bruce Willis too, because they all go DTV eventually.

Jacob (Frank Grillo) is a family-man banker who gets traumatized after a heist. Should he have tried harder to stop the robber? What could his sorry ass do anyway? Enter James (Bruce Willis), ex-cop neighbor with the resources to help Jacob's unofficial investigation into the whereabouts of this dickhead villain.

So Grillo doesn't play his usual bad-ass action hero self, and Willis plays a pretty reserved character (for the most part) who says a few things and stands around for most of his scenes. I'm not sure when his mental decline began, but I suspect it was around this time. For what it's worth, it's actually not a bad performance out of him. I'm sure the DTV action crap he did after this was far worse.

See it. Or don't. I don't give a shit.

I think I saw this. It's one of those Mark Cuban productions, no? All of his films are subpar at best IMO, even if he does get Mel Gibson or Bruce Willis to make a cameo in it and give them 2nd billing.

Frank Grillo was amazing in The Purge: Anarchy. Just sayin'.

And he's coming back for one more Purge, which will be deemed as the last of the series. Because the last movie was fucking garbage, so they needed to do better.

They tried to make it into a TV series, a few years ago. It had its moments, but it wasn't great overall. I did like the Lee Tergesen character, Joe.
