Just looking through the page, nice work by the way, it appears the AR15 Carbine that Sean uses at the end isn't on the page yet. I've tried my best to try and identify it but I'm still not sure about how to upload screencaps to the degree that I'm ready to add them to a page. Anyway I figured I would put what I noticed about the carbine down here to help identifying it. It has flip up sights, what looks like an SPR Rail System, KX-3 flash hider and possibly a Vltor Modstock. It's also equipped with an EOTEC, possibly the XPS2 as it's really small. Initially I thought it was a Noveske Diplomat but the barrel is too long and the Rail System doesn't look the same either. Hope this is of any help. --[[User:Cool-breeze|cool-breeze]] 21:27, 2 November 2011 (CDT) | Just looking through the page, nice work by the way, it appears the AR15 Carbine that Sean uses at the end isn't on the page yet.

My Review of Sinners and Saints
Four Stars
This is an outstanding crime action thriller. Johnny Strong is convincing in the lead role of Sean Riley, a New Orleans cop who is assigned a grisly homicide case with a young Detective, Will Ganz (Kevin Phillips). Riley discovers that his old friend Colin (Sean Patrick Flanery) is involved in some way and has to figure out what his friend has gotten himself into whilst trying to solve the case.
The characters themselves tick quite a lot of boxes of what you would expect from a cop action thriller but there is more to them than these familiar architypes. William Kaufman doesn't create a set of characters in his screenplay, he manages to create people who we can believe that they could exist. There are a few nice cameos from some well known actors of the past, Tom Berenger and Jurgen Prochnow stand out above all others. The film doesn't let up on the brutality, nor does it shy away from it. At it's core the film is a throwback to the crime films of the 70s and 80s, taking inspiration from the buddy cop genre with some of it's scenes. And yet the story is a very contemporary piece.
The action sequences are fantastic and with the exception of some of the blood hits there seems to be no CGI involved in their construction. When a car crashes, it really crashes which is a nice change. The scenery is fresh and different, mainly due to it's New Orleans setting.
It's incredible to believe that this was an independant production because it has all the hallmarks and production value of a big budget action movie. William Kaufman seems to have put every cent they spent on the screen and he does so with a style the is very reminicent of the Dirty Harry series mixed with Lethal Weapon. --cool-breeze 20:01, 2 November 2011 (CDT)
Sean's AR15 Carbine
