Skip it. This 2021 Denzel Washington/Rami Malek thriller had all the ingredients for a solid crime drama but landed flat—the plot meanders without real stakes, the twist undermines itself, and the chemistry between leads feels obligatory rather than electric. Save your night for a crime thriller with actual bite.

Plot

Deputy Sheriff Joe "Deke" Deacon joins forces with Sgt. Jim Baxter to search for a serial killer who's terrorizing Los Angeles. As they track the culprit, Baxter is unaware that the investigation is dredging up echoes of Deke's past, uncovering disturbing secrets that could threaten more than his case.
