Roy Freeman, an ex-homicide detective with a fractured memory, is forced to revisit a case he can't remember. As a man's life hangs in the balance on death row, Freeman must piece together the brutal evidence from a decade-old murder investigation, uncovering a sinister web of buried secrets and betrayals linking to his past. With only instincts to trust, he faces a chilling truth - sometimes, it's best to let sleeping dogs lie.

"Some lies never die."

Crowe is less lazy in this film. He moves around much more and... looks a little slimmer? Maybe it's just movie magic but all this potential cut weight is wasted as we're still stuck with almost 2 hours of run time. The twists aren't that amazing or necessary or whatever. It's fine. It's been done before...a little long....
