- The incoherent plot and Jack’s failure to suspect another cop are the principal weak links.
- The villains could simply kill Jack rather than eliminate everyone around him.
- The Casey–Campbell subplot feels attached at the end; the objection concerns arbitrary endangerment, not Campbell’s talent.
- Campbell’s consistent presence in major Black film and television work is strongly defended.
- Cherry makes the connection too easily, and Angel rejecting the money is considered implausible.
