In the course of getting even, Rick is arrested, leaving Melissa without anyone to protect her. She falls in with a crack dealer and quickly becomes addicted to the drug.

Short Review

I went with 2 stars for this movie, it was kinda a hard watch with the topics that this movie hit on. I don't think that it was a bad movie, just really sad and crazy. I don't think that I can reccomend this movie to anybody tbh. I only seen it once, and I think that once is enough. It is very run of the mill 90's ganster shoot out movies. They don't make movies like this anymore. It is crazy to see Jim Brown in this type of role though, I don't think that I can watch this movie more then once, not because it is a bad movie, but because of how the movie is and what it shows etc... I did see that this movie got a low rating though, this movie was a hitshow though because it is kinda all over the place though idk 2 stars.
