Brooklyn's Finest (2009)

When I first rented this movie I expected something a little different than what I saw on my TV screen. I really liked the movie and thought it was good because of it's main stars. To me, they saved the movie because most of them were seasoned veterans and there acting abilities made it believable. Richard Gere (An Officer And A Gentleman) stars as Eddie Duggan, a suicidal veteran cop with a week left of retirement. Duggan is a pessimistic cop who doesn't want to get too involved in anything when it comes to his job and obviously has a few skeletons in the closet. Ethan Hawke (Dead Poets Society) stars as Sal Procida, a cop with big dreams of taking himself and his family out of their current living situation into a better one. The only problem for him is that he doesn't have the money to do it and when he goes on the drug busts, he thinks the worst. You can tell the job is getting to him. Don Cheadle (Boogie Nights) plays Tango, an undercover cop being a drug dealer who just wants his life back. Tango struggles with his persona that he's had to adopt while undercover and now has to figure out a way to protect Caso (Played By Wesley Snipes). The premise of the story is that three men who don't know each other will all be in the same place one deadly night. Like I said it is definitely worth watching. I give it an A
