A cop goes after a group of police who have turned vigilante.
The Los Angeles Times says the subject matter was explored "sincerely but not well" and was hampered by "a vastly overpopulated and needlessly complicated plot." However it said it had a "sturdy, driving thriller structure and excellent telling dialogue" and "Harry Falk has directed with plenty of punch" and Forster gives "perhaps his best performance to date."[2]
