Editorial Reviews

Leave no witnesses. City officials look the other way as the "SCAR" unit (Select Unit Armed Response), led by Lt. Lain Devon (Chazz Palminteri), use their extreme ruthless and corrupt tactics to take out the city's most violent and dangerous criminals. Officer John Trace (Stephen Baldwin) is

recruited for the unit and discovers that they are cold-blooded cops with a license to kill. During a bust, John breaks the SCAR code, letting a call-girl named Candy (Tia Carrere) escape alive. When the others discover what he has done, a hit is put out on Candy. In a desperate attempt to save her life, John breaks out of the unit, vowing to protect her at any cost.

3.0 out of 5 stars THE VIGILANTE FORCE, May 27, 2005

This review is from: Scarred City (DVD)

Once you accept the premise that a band of vigilante cops is sanctioned by higher authorities, SCARRED CITY is a watchable crime thriller. The stoic Stephen Baldwin does little to heighten his acting persona, but again his laconic often soporific demeanor works in his favor as the cop who finds himself a member of a group of lawmen who take the law into their own hands, ultimately becoming as vile as the perps they are killing. Chazz Palminteri and Tia Carrere are along for the ride, and Carrere shows a fine singing voice in a couple of songs she performs as the typical hooker with a heart of gold. The action scenes are well staged and although the plot itself is Swiss Cheese, it entertains and fulfills what you expect.

I didn't expect the unsual suspects but what I found was a film with some great great moments. funny and caustic....a beautiful song by Tia.... some fantastic scenes made the occasional 2-D plot come to life with the fresh chemistry between the two stars!
