QUICK TAKE:
Action: A bored cop must contend with several hitmen and their target ending up in her police station.
PLOT:

Valerie Young (ALEXIS LOUDER) is a police officer in Gun Creek who's bored with the mundane aspects of her work life in the small town. That changes when a man with a bullet wound in his side, Teddy Murretto (FRANK GRILLO), punches her in the face in order to be arrested. Valerie tries to figure out why he'd do such a thing, but he's not willing to explain anything. His tone changes, however, when a seemingly intoxicated man, Bob Viddick (GERARD BUTLER), is brought in and put in the jail cell opposite of Teddy.

It turns out Teddy has stolen money from the wrong people who've sent hitman Bob to deal with the situation. Things become more complicated when one of Valerie's coworkers, Officer Huber (RYAN O'NAN), turns out to be bad and then when another hitman, Anthony Lamb (TOBY HUSS), shows up also with a bounty on Teddy's head. Finding herself the last cop standing, Valerie does what she must to protect herself all while dealing with the various bad men.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
Teen who are into hard-hitting, violent action films might be interested, as might those who are fans of anyone in the cast.
WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: R
For strong/bloody violence, and pervasive language.

I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com!

I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It!

I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents.

Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together.

I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!!
