3.5 stars2004R98 minutes Lee Ray Oliver (Ray Liotta) -- a sociopath a few cans short of a six-pack -- secretly gets a second chance to duck death row when pioneering scientist Miles Copeland (Willem Dafoe) uses Oliver as a test subject for an experimental drug designed to stifle violent tendencies.

Ok...so what is up with Bulgaria? Contractor (movie #117) was also filmed in Bulgaria. AND...just like Contractor, Control went straight to DVD. I wouldn't feel so bad about spending $9 to see Control in theatres...Contractor on the other hand...
Likes: The acting was good...the story line was kinda unique...Ray Liotta actually made me like him a little bit...and the ending was good. Do you notice something? The word "good." Well, the movie was just that...good.
Ray Liotta lookin craaazy
Michelle Rodriguez was in her prime in SWAT :)
Dislikes: The movie dragged a little in the middle. If the ending wasn't as good then I would have given it a 3.
Trivia: Ray Liotta replaced Matt Dillon in the lead role. --> I used to mix the two up when I was little.
