This is the horrifying true story of one of the most deadliest shoot outs to occur in LA history. It is about two men, who are dressed in full armor and carrying AK-47's and other military type weapons, going to commit a robbery at a Bank Of America in North Hollywood. The two men played by Andrew Bryniarski (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Remake), The Program) and former UFC fighter Oleg Taktarov (Bad Boys 2, Rollerball) are eventually met by the LAPD as a woman walking her dog noticed the two going in with the weapons and what will become a long and horrifying shootout. The Police are played by Mario Van Peebles (New Jack City) a sort of preacher type cop who carries pictures of deceased gang members with him to try and change the minds of inner city youths, Michael Madsen (Kill Bill), plays a veteran cop who happens to be in the neighborhood and has been chasing these guys for years, Ron Livingston (Office Space) plays a swat team officer who has been going through some emotional issues since the death of his father, and a special cameo from Desperate Housewives cast member Jesse Metcalfe. This is actually an excellent movie and it is sometimes hard to believe that it actually happened. The end of the movie also includes some real life footage of the heroes of that day.
