This feels like a slightly jerry-built film: a gay cop in a relationship with a trans man who wants to convert and together they are sent on a mission by the cop’s boss to infiltrate and break a drugs smuggling ring run by a canny middle aged DJ who operates via a website. Not that much of it convinces and the editing feels stilted (it feels like it should be a 90/100 minute thriller which actually runs at 120 mins), but the treatment of the relationship between the cop and his partner is well told and as cobbled-together genre movies go it could be a lot worse, even it it left me thinking that you could see why Victoria, occupying similar territory, seemed so fresh and invigorating.
