Jonathan and Josh Baker co-direct this US sci-fi action thriller based on their short film Bag Man. In a futuristic Detroit, 14-year-old Eli (Myles Truitt) stumbles upon a powerful high-tech weapon and claims it as his own. When his adopted brother Jimmy (Jack Reynor), who has just been released from prison, falls foul of local crime boss Taylor (James Franco), the two brothers embark on a road trip, with Taylor and his gang and masked figures in search of Eli's weapon in hot pursuit.

Reviews (1)
The sci-fi element was a bit unnecessary, but as a result it was one of the most interesting things in this initially promising, later boring and at the end surprisingly entertaining film, which does not offend, excite or rob you of too much time. As for the acting line-up, it's pretty good, the special effects are nice and the shootouts have energy, but the story isn't particularly revealing and it mixes a lot of stuff together.
