The Hard Truth

In this high-stakes action thriller, a suspended cop and his girlfriend concoct a daring scheme to break into her boss's safe, embezzling $3 million from the corrupt councilman who's on the local mob's payroll. With the help of an electronics expert, they embark on a perilous journey that blurs the lines between loyalty, deception, and love. Directed by woman director Kristine Peterson, "The Hard Truth" is a tense, crime-infused ride that promises to deliver few surprises but should still prove entertaining as video fare.
