Street Kings (DVD, 2009, Checkpoint; Sensormatic; Widescreen)

Street Kings is a movie is a movie that drives you from euphoria to deception in an hour and a half. A police thriller full of action, drama and suspense. The story about Tom Ludlow, a veteran LAPD cop who finds life difficult to navigate after the death of his wife. When evidence implicates him in the execution of a fellow officer, he is forced to go up against the cop culture he's been a part of his entire career, ultimately leading him to question the loyalties of everyone around him, is interesting but a little predictable, with some loose ends and with a lack of a closure at the end. The cast is really good, all-star actors (Reeves, Whitaker, Laurie, Chris Evans and Jay Mohr) but I feel some of the performances kinda weak. Keanu was good but with not the enough power the character needed. Forest as always excellent as the corrupt police chief, Hugh Laurie was amazing although at some moments his character reminded me to House because if his ironic way of talking. To conclude, its a movie that could offer a lot more than it gives. If you liked Training Day you will like this Movie
