Released directly to Tubi, Murder City is your typical B-movie action flick starring Luke Cage’s Mike Colter as a disgraced cop who finds his family being squeezed by a local gangster (Stephanie Sigman) after he is released from prison. We see a little of Neil’s (Colter) on the job skimming prior to his arrest when playing back-up to his father’s (Antonio Fargas) drug deal when both are busted by the DEA. Fast-forwarding through his stay in prison, we only see his release on-screen, the story picks up with new troubles for Neil from the psychotic Ash who basically blackmails him into going to work for her by leveraging Neil’s family.
