“Bent” (*** out of four) was a gritty action thriller about a disgraced former cop (Karl Urban) turned private investigator after being released from prison and starts snooping around a murder case which he later connects to a government agency involving many friends and former working partners (Andy Garcia, Sofia Vergara, and others). Starts to lose its way in the middle as it becomes one more conspiracy thriller involving the government and sleazy cops but still has plenty of twists and turns, and features Urban in one of his strongest performances. Vincent Spano and John Finn are strong too in minor but key supporting roles.
