Now, in a high speed chase, Vaughn will not only have to outwit the police, led by Officer Bajos (Gina Carano) who are in hot pursuit, but he will have to contend with Pope's maniacal right hand man, Dog (Morris Chestnut), in order to make it through the day alive.

Beyond the sun.
The pacing, action, and twists made this an enjoyable view. Will look for future films directed by Scott Mann. But the cliched characters, convenient plot coupons, and similarities to previous movies within the same genre - screamed for a script rewrite... maybe two.
