It's time for the old precinct to retire, the last night, after which it's not required, with Jake Roenick holding fort, there should be nothing to report, what could possibly go wrong, you might enquire - where do you begin! Certainly one of the worst remakes of all time, although why you would want to remake an untouchable original is beyond me. Gabriel Byrne is the biggest culprit in this pantomime, if you want a bad cop you need to at least come close to Gary Oldman's incarnation in Leon, which he doesn't by some distance. Add to that a plot that might have worked when cowboys (and girls) roamed the prairies but in a modern setting just leads to ridicule and mockery. All in all, thoroughly unentertaining.
