Mike takes full advantage of the situation, collects the money, and runs. During his getaway, things go wrong, and soon get worse when he runs into the real hitman, Lyle.
This movie was a bite-sized thriller in that the viewer is dropped almost immediately into the conflict. The might might be described as efficient in that it has no wasted scenes or dialog, and the final scene is true to the characters. If you don’t have a ton of time to watch a thriller, you could do worse than this movie.
