Written and directed by Eric Red, Cohen and Tate opens in a handful of suburban locations. Reminiscent of Stephen Frears’ The Hit from 1985, Roy Scheider and Adam Baldwin play a couple of antagonistic hitmen whose conflicting opinions about what to do with the nine year-old government witness they have kidnapped and are transporting on behalf of their mob employer precipitates a falling out and finally violent reckoning in the darkness of an industrial oil field. A low budget, neo-noir thriller plied with deft doses of psychological nuance and suspense.
