Street Kings was one of the best cop movies thier are in my opinion. I was really looking forward to seeing this movie. I really wanted to give this movie an A+ and 10/10 but I can't. Thier was just not enough action. pretty much all the action came toward the end of this movie. It was pretty entertaining through the whole movie. I think that thier was just to much planning and talking. The whole middle pretty much had no action. Thier was more of a story to it. The story was very good but seemed a little bit mixed up and confusing. When you see this you really have to follow it a lot. It is one of thoose movies you have to pay attention to. Watch for every single last detail in the movie. Each seen in the movie turns out to be pretty big at the end. You will be really surprised who is a bad cop and who turns out to be good. I think that they could have made it a little bit better. It does get you really pumped up though. During the movie you find yourself like yelling a little bit. It even had some pretty funny parts in it as well. The trailer to this movie had some good music, but in this movie there was no music pretty much. I was expecting some good music but thier was really none. Now to get onto the cast. It was very well choose by the director. I think they found the perfect cast. They all played amazing parts and did great jobs. They made it really realistic. Chris Evans pretty much had little screen time. Keaunu Reeves did a great job in this as well. I think that he pretty much stole the show from every one though. He pretty much was in each seen. Forest Whitaker did another great job. This was probaly his best movie yet. He made his part very realistic. He was very fun to watch in this movie. Hugh Laurie did a great job as well surprisingly coming from a T.V. show. This was just very entertaining and had some extreme action scenes. Thier was a ton of blood in this movie in a couple different scenes. The messages were pretty much aimed toward cops. It showed people that thier are crooked cops out thier in the world. Some of the camera shots and visuals were pretty cool. I liked some of the shots on Keanus car he drives the whole movie. Overall this was avery slick action thriller. Go see it and enjoy it.
