Boiling Point

“He's a cop who reached the Boiling Point.”

Jimmy Mercer (Wesley Snipes), a Secret Service agent, wants the men who killed his partner, and he has one week before he is transferred out. They are Red Diamond (Dennis Hopper), an aging con man fresh from prison, and Ronnie (Viggo Mortensen), a young hoodlum who is easily led. James B. Harris builds the story on a scheme that sells fake money to buyers and then kills them, and on how far a man will go when he cannot let a death go unanswered.
