Concrete Canyons (2010 TV Movie)
6/10
Good, but with a major technical flaw

This kept me entertained and was generally well produced. The female detective was overplayed as standoffish, but you knew that meant romance potential at some point. If she could be unfrozen a bit.

The main thing compelling me to review this was the car stakeout scene(s). Shady workers had seen the guy before, and even fought with him, yet he sat in the same car for hours watching them from scarcely 100 feet, with a light shining on him at times! You'd think nefarious people would notice such things as they went about their business. No other cars were evident, making him even more obvious. He really didn't need binoculars at that distance.

Whoever staged those scenes either wasn't thinking, or had to wing it under some location constraint. If you can overlook that part, it's worth watching, but it kind of spoiled the otherwise decent plot.
