For the first time since Be Cool, Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson has to do some actual acting in this true story about a father who decides to cooperate with police by making a drug deal to save his son from a 10 year prison sentence. Johnson is totally convincing, proving with decent material he can deliver a solid performance. Although the film fails to cash in on his most bankable asset, that being his enormous physique, it is believable and moderately entertaining most of the way, with a supporting cast (Susan Sarandon, Barry Pepper, Benjamin Bratt) that is far better than a film like this deserves.
