An EXCELLENT film. Similar to "The Transporter," but grittier, and not as much action. This film focuses on the Asian sex trade in America. Many of the scenes were filmed with a digital camera, which adds a very real feel to it. Considered film noir, this drama suspense, keeps you on the edge of your seat. A classy romance also unfolds. Both Chad Allen and Bai Ling do an excellent job. Filmed mostly in Vegas and the Nevada dessert.
