An average car-jacking movie
Added 9/26/2009
3 of 5 stars for this action movie. If you take the movie Gone in 60 Seconds and combine it with The Fast and The Furious you get this movie. The basic plot has an undercover FBI agent (Erik Palladino) inside of a car jacking ring trying to find out who is Mr. Big. The car jacking ring has a rival gang trying to take over the business. Lots of car chase and driving scenes, but, frankly not too well photographed. So, alot of the exciting action driving gets lost.
Overall, the characters were thin and not at all interesting. Even when the agents cover is blown and they kidnap his wife, it doesn't get much more interesting. There are a couple of unnecessarily volent scenes that lasted much longer than necessary.
This is an average car movie. Better choices are any of the Fast/Furious movies or either version of Gone in 60 seconds.

ERIK PALLADINO SHOULD BE ON THE COVER
Added 6/5/2008
Erik Palladino ("OVER*THERE") is Kevin Hawkins, a car thief who is recruited by the FBI to help them take down an international car-theft ring, using his connections from the inside. To do this, he has to return to his past, where he reconnects with old friends, including the girlfriend that he walked out on two years before.
A fast-paced, action-packed movie, with a love story on the side, and Erik Palladino playing the lead - I loved it!
This was a "Spike" TV movie, and there are some violent scenes that were meant for mature audiences. Unfortunately, there are no extras on the DVD.
