A decent little underworld movie with more or less the same plot as State Of Grace. Sensitive Damien Chapa and cut-up Scott Plank try to take over the drug-dealing concession in a violent NYC neighbourhood but Chapa is a conscience-stricken undercover cop with a romantic streak. A loose cannon is thrown into the compromised buddy relationship
and Chapas double-crossing when he falls for erratic model Jennifer Rubin who complicates things a lot. Written and directed by Paul Mones, who made the similarly titled,
similarly ambitious Fathers And Sons, this works fairly well, but shallow pin-up Chapa leaves most of the work to a good supporting cast.
