Masterful thief Tony Fait's ostensibly successful heist of a number of valuable black diamonds turns terrifying when detective-turned-criminal Ling kidnaps his daughter, Vanessa, and demands the diamonds as ransom for her safe return.

REVIEWS

Review by Bryan (posted on 13-Mar-2005)

Yet another movie about diamonds. This one features the blackness of DMX and the fighting skills of Jet Li. This movie is about a diamond thief (DMX) who pulls off a big score which results in a lot of people kicking the shit out of each other. He takes rare diamonds that are used for nuclear power and tries to bargain for his kidnapped daughter. It is filled with plenty of violence and is fun for the whole family. The funniest part of this movie is probly the ending credits, where Anthony Anderson and Tom Aronold talk.
