Summary: No redemption
Comment: This has been done before in the Shield, but this film takes things up to another level. Cuba Gooding Jr.'s character is deeply unpleasant, but deeply unpleasant people do exist, otherwise there would be no evil in the world.

Clifton Collins Jr was terrific, playing a man going through a breakdown, disgusted by what he had done and what he had become and seeking redemption in a terrible way - by betraying his partner. The agony on his face, the ghosts that haunted him, the futile attempts to put a limit on the things his partner wanted to do made this a brilliant performance

The film was chaotic, held together only by its timeframe - 8am to 6pm, but that was symbolic of the lives of the two men and the other corrupt cops. Nothing made sense any more because the lines between good and evil and right and wrong had become totally non existent.

If you like The Shield, The Wire, or Homicide Life on the Streets, you'll like this.

Summary: Bad Bad Bad Bad Bad!!
Comment: This film is awful. It has no pace, it seems to be plotless - Gooding plays a deeply unpleasant, racist, corrupt cop with no redeeming features, his partner, who I assume we are meant to like is not attractive and invokes no empathy either.

Liberally sprinkled with the "N" word, the film is just unlikeable - the scene featuring an assault on a woman at the beach for example seems unlikely in this age of camera phones.

Police corruption, gang activity and the work of Internal Affairs in the LAPD is dealt with fantastically in The Shield - the wonderful TV series featuring bad cop Vick Mackey and his team. Despite his corruption, it is hard not to like Mackey. Here, it is hard not to completely hate the fact that you have wasted precious minutes of your life watching this terrible film.

We were going to sell it on Amazon, but instead are going to take great joy in ritually destroying the DVD so that non-one else can blame us for inflicting this awful film on them.

Dreadful Dreadful Dreadful!!
