Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaCelebrity chef Paula Deen's spacious Savannah (GA) home doubled as the location of Famke Janssen (Jayne Hunt)'s sprawling waterfront residence.
- GoofsThe movie is set in 1978, which is evidenced in the 70s-era vehicles, and the common usage of revolvers by Chief Walsh (Robert Patrick) and Carson Philips (John Travolta). Yet, during the shootout, at the sanitarium, between Carson and Lorenzo (Blerim Destani), Lorenzo is clearly shooting a Glock pistol (visible beginning at around 1 hour 18 min, when Lorenzo is shooting from behind the pickup truck), a weapon for which design work would not begin until 1979, let alone enter service in 1982 with the Austrian military and police. In fact, as the scene progresses, it appears it might even be a 2nd or 3rd generation Glock pistol.

Featured review
I once used to try to dig john travolta, but unfortunately , for each flick i see him in he is keeping on digging himself his own grave, and have soon dug himself to china, to try financing his future products ,full stop.
no, i did see this film because i like morgan freeman, 82 yrs of age, even a bit older than me, and well he does not impress either.
its a film about a small time private detective that sets out on a mission to find a little ol lady in a dull texas gulf coast town, and as three is a lucky number it is his beloved town where he was born and raised 20 years ago..so everybody is so happy to see him and shadows or shadows away from him, as he is like good old colombo, making people dizzy and frustratedby the talk and walk as an intrusive threat. he finds a lot of errors in the community and sets out to clear up everything before returning to sunny l.a..
its a boring flick, i smiled at 2 occasions, and its neither dramatic or thrilling, and the shootouts are so bonanza like that tuscon city took his tux-on and took hi ho silver to bed.
the story,plot and point of this story,are just as meaningless as this review, so dont bother read it and dont bother watch the film, its not good.
