**Last action antihero** Although the title evokes a B-movie production, this independent film is an excellent example of how the hand of a great director and a dynamic, effective script can make a mediocre actor shine. Here, Don Johnson embodies the quintessential antihero: a sharp-tongued and brilliant city detective whose chaotic personal life has cost him the respect of those around him.

obsessed with a case that drags him across North America from coast to coast on the trail of a fascist cult—a journey in which he will find much more than answers.

I haven't seen this before. A cop with a dead partner, sure, I have seen that. A scumbag FBI agent, yeah, I've seen that too. I've also seen a widow that want's revenge.

outs in between. The cop is a screw up and one that seems to only get by because he's seen it all before, not because he is particularly good at what he does. It all boils down to a unique film and one that is exceptionally well put together. The only thing that would make it a better film, would make it more unique, is if the white supremacists were as deeply and disturbingly family orientated as they are in the documentaries about the KKK. But, instead, you have them as the cliched psychopaths, which is somehow LESS disturbing. But, it's a small cliche for a movie that you likely haven't seen before and certainly won't see again, at least not without the protagonist being a super buff ex-Navy SEAL with all the special effects to back it up.
