Brooklyn's Finest (2009)


Three unconnected Brooklyn cops wind up at the same deadly location after enduring vastly different career paths.

Ambitious and downbeat, but confusingly plotted cop thriller with 3 great central performances.

Maltin ***: "Impressively gritty, sometimes shockingly violent urban drama...Covers familiar ground, but strong performances (especially from Gere and Cheadle) and punchy direction breathe fresh life into cliches and conventions."
