Tough, Gutsy Action Thriller - Street Kings review by GI
A really entertaining and gutsy cop thriller with a great story albeit a little obvious and some fantastic action sequences. Keanu Reeves is unorthodox vice cop Tom Ludlow, he drinks too much, grieves for his deceased wife and is not averse to shooting the bad guys and covering up the crime scene. His boss, Captain Wander (Forest Whitaker) is only too pleased to have Tom on his team and keeps the bosses off his back. But after a cop threatening to expose corruption in Wander's team is killed Captain Briggs (Hugh Laurie) from Internal Affairs begins to focus his attention on Tom. When Tom starts to look into the killing he finds that not everyone he thought of as a friend in fact is. The action scenes are exciting, violent and bloody. The plot has some neat twists and turns and Reeves does all his own stunts. With a great cast that also includes Chris Evans and Naomi Harris you have a rather neat thriller that keeps you hooked throughout. Well worth checking out.
