Here Christian Bale delivers "a dark brutal character study of an antihero" - LA Times. Think Denzel Washington in 'Training day' Harvey Keitel in 'Bad Lieutenant' and Robert De Niro in 'Taxi Driver'. Bale is Jim Davis an emotionally damaged Gulf war vet whose dysfunctional friendship with Mike (Freddy Rodriguez Six Feet Under) is fuelled by booze drugs and explosions of psychotic violence. Cruising the mean-streets of South Central LA theirs is a world drenched in machismo and viciousness - where every bad deed begets another. Because of his unstable psychological condition Jim is rejected by the LAPD and now his simmering resentment is about to boil over. With nothing to lose Jim's rampage against society is going to ignite a catastrophic series of events. And when he goes down he's taking Mike with him.
