Kill Point: Fantastic mini-series on DVD

#1

Post by raum »

I watched disk 1 last night. This show is great! I got to go to blockbuster today and see if they have disk 2.

John Leguizamo is a Sargeant, screwed over by the system, who is robbing Three Rivers bank in Pittsburgh, PA with 4 members of his unit from the Marines. Things go bad, their getaway is flubbed and they are stuck in a hostage situation. Then, well, things get better, and by better I mean worse.

Donnie Walberg is the grammar nazi hostage negotiator struggling with the feds and the father of an influential man whose daughter is in the bank, and the force has trouble of their own. Besides, not all of Sarge's unit is in the bank... and neither are all the bad guys.

This is outstanding, and I heartily recommend it to anyone here. Apparently, it was a Spike mini-series, but it is clear, concise, flows well, and has some unbelievable talent in the cast, known and unknown. And the story is still developing.

I got disk two and will let you know how it turns out. *if I can get my girl off the wii, ;)*

Fans of 24, SWAT, police drama in general, or even some of the crooked cop movies (16 blocks, departed) or if you are like me, and hostage situations and bank robberies are just great movies in general. check this out!
