Review of Street Kings (2008) by Aurelius D — 14 Jul 2009
I think this movie can be compared with that of the TV show "The Shield". you got cops that are...not exactly "squeaky clean", out to do a job that doesn't pay enough for the risks they take.
It is all about results and how far you feel comfortable enough taking it to do the right thing. Lines become blurred as this isn't the first time a crooked cop story has been told. It still remains fresh enough with Hugh Laurie playing IAD and you aren't exactly sure what his end game is.
Forest plays the Captain that is all about covering for his men only to save himself and you got Keanu who is the star cop but unsure of his place.
