In Arizona, when the Deputy Daniel "Dan" Saxon (Charlie Sheen) is fired after an argument with the corrupt Sheriff, he is recruited by the agent of the General Attorney Office Conroy Price (Courtney B. Vance) to work undercover in the bike gang Jackals. He befriends the mechanic Virgil (Leon Rippy) that introduces him to the Jackals' leader Blood (Michael Madsen) using the alias Sid. He also has a love affair with the photographer Renee (Linda Fiorentino) that recognizes him. Now Sid has to be prepared to cross the thin line between the law and outlaw to convince Blood that he is a drug and dealer biker.
"Beyond the Law" (1993) is a great action-police story of an undercover cop and based on true events. "Rush" (1991) is a more dramatic and also tells the story of an undercover police officer that joins the underground of drugs to catch criminals, but is depressive. The screenplay of "Beyond the Law" shows only Sid reaching the bottom of the well of insanity when he is beyond the law, but he recovers his sanity when he sees the murder of and Asian-American worker in a convenience store. The sexy Linda Fiorentino makes a nice romantic pair with Charles Sheen. My vote is seven.
Title (Brazil): "À Sombra de Um Disfarce" ("At the Shadow of a Disguise")
