Production values, script and acting were abysmal. Surely, the only reason Katherine Heigl made this movie is "For the Money". Despite all this it is mildly amusing which warrants a 3 instead of a 1 which this movie really deserves. There is a reason why Jason O'Mara is a career TV actor and, sadly, he kept the performance at that level as did Heigl. As much as I wanted to like this movie (being a fan of Heigl and Leguizamo), this would have failed as a bad made for TV movie. Heigl's performance reminds me of Rebecca DiMornay after Risky Business and Theresa Russell after Black Widow. THAT paints a bad picture for Heigl. Next time, wait for a good product and a great co-star. Don't follow the lead of DiMornay and Russell.

Very entertaining until the last 10 minutes. Weak contrived ending. I dare say there was not anyone over the age of 20 that didn't know who the old man really was. The "heart" thing was unexpected, but so terribly weak. If the FBI wanted to keep this guy alive, he would have already had a transplant. Such a good movie for a lame ending. No way the FBI kills a well(?) person to give the old guy the heart. I think the creative team surely came up with alternate endings. I will buy the DVD just to see the alternate endings. This can't be the best one. Cast was superb, but several pieces were underdeveloped and underutilized. Black "hit babe" loose end being carried out made no sense. Makes you wonder if Alicia Keyes agreed to do the film only if she lives. This could have been a classic but ends up an entertaining but unsatisfying film.
