STREET KINGS






Plot (B-):
The plot for this film is semi out of the ordinary for a movie like this. I mean it's your typical Los Angeles street film kind of like Harsh Times or Training Day. Training Day is 100 times better than this though so don't compare them. But the same style of movie you see. The cops are crooked as fuck in this movie and I won't spoil nothing but this movie is a lot more in depth than you would expect. The plot maybe tries to hard to be like CSI and throw twists and turns at u but still a nice plot.




Acting (B-):
Maybe one of Keanu Reeves best performances solely because he didn't look like a douche and Paul Walker everything. It had an all star cast with Forrest Whitaker and the House guy, Jay Mohr and numerous others. The acting wasn't bad at all but it wasn't great. It exceeded my expectations though so that's a plus. The acting was just acceptable but like I said Keanu was passable and the cast was well put together.




Action (B)
-There's a lot of action from the start. Not just shooting and gunfights but mental CSI type action. A lot of killing throughout the film and new discoveries and twists leave you wondering whats gonna happen next. MAybe not edge of your seat but definitely something that keeps your eyes glued.



GRADE: B-



-C.S.
