Conundrum - 3 stars out of 5 stars

I was attracted to this film by its name.Thats the code word in my favorite TV series"Seven days"and the cast included Terminator star Michael Biehn and a really good Marg Helgenberger as 2 teamed up cops.Released in 1996 it runs 97 minutes and I took 2 stars off because its been done before so its nothing special.What is good is the acting and Asian community theme and I did love Marg and this may be Michael's best role since Terminator.So while its little more than a curiosity,you could do far worse.No trailer was found but a scene URL follows the Pix and a IMDB summary is below.I understand this was a Showtime movie,if so,they are in HBO's class production wise.

A cop and her partner are trying to break a gambling racket in the Vietnamese community. But when her partner's wife is murdered in a gruesome manner, the case takes on a personal cast, and they are up against the cops on their own precinct, as well as the villains on the street...and even each other.
