I am always interested in a Cuba Gooding Jr. movie, as his personality can carry even crappy plots. I feel bad for Cuba as the last few films he has made have been TV movie dramas at best.

This movie is no exception as the film work and writing are slow and dull. Though there were a few good scenes, such as the scene when Cuba visits the snake man.

I would advise against watching this movie, it is a drama/action film, but is missing the action and drama to keep you interested beyond the first 20-minutes.

Though I was able to watch the entire thing, I do feel it was overall a waste of time and I wish I had not seen this film.

It reminds me of a late night HBO rerun movie that you might watch if you have nothing else to do, and even then you probably won't walk away from the film even remembering that you saw it or anything interesting in it.

Though I love Cuba's acting, and I hope he hits a few more home runs in his career, this is not one of them.

Cuba was an undercover cop separated from his family. He gets found out and his family is killed. Afterward, he teams up with Jack Daniels to live a miserable life as the Toronto police force's "Dirty Harry light". In the city there is a drug lord with a techno dance club, where sex can be had in the restrooms as lovers snort lines off each others body (you know the place). Mike, a young drug dealer wants out. He cares for his younger sister. He hijacks a statue of the Virgin Mary made of heroin paste and ransoms its location to his former employer (guess how that works out).

I didn't think Cuba could get a worse role after "Hit List", but I was wrong. After so many good films, he is getting dog after dog. It is time for a new agent. The film has the lousy plot of a disjointed grindhouse film, but none of the other qualities that make it watchable. During the argument/fight between two guys over who took the statue, the acting got so bad I had to ask, "Was this really the best take? Couldn't they have shot the scene over?"

The movie pretends to make a statement on drug trafficking and redemption, but falls way short.

A soild actor in a subpar movie with a subpar performance. I know Gooding can do better than this. He was classic in Radio and in the Chess movie.

Sacrifice is a propaganda movie revolving around drugs and cliché police drama and bogus religion. Someone steals a statue and all hell breaks loose. Kind of.

Most of the actors were horrible. The little girl did better than 80% of the adult actors.

This movie was just to bring awareness to the lies of the drug war. They can stop a guy in a cave but can't stop drugs? They can stop you from traveling but can't stop drugs? C'mon. I may watch stupid movies and tv shows, but I ain't stupid.

Last Words: just a hash poor of a film.
