IMDB Review
Release: 5 March 2010
Brooklyn’s finest does have a lot of stars in it but at the same time it has big shoes to fit into after a series of cop movies like The Departed, righteous kill etc., Antione Fuqua just seems to be trying to get back his fame by attempting a movie whose script has been frequented, the case of the corrupt cop. The only difference is that this time around the movie doesn’t have only one cop who is in the corrupt line but three of them. The three cops are Eddie played by Richard Gere, an officer who works for the narcotics department Sal who is played by Eathan Hawke and Tango who is played by Don Cheadle.
Sal is shown to be stealing some of the drugs just so that he can bear the expenditures of his wife and son. The characters are rather depressing and the movie slowly degenerates from mildly depressing to unbearably depressing. Eddie seems to have just one expression on his face all the time and Sal keeps whining about how small his house his and how badly he needs space. Tango on the other hand has not much of a role. Don can hardly do a bad job but with a bad script nothing can be done. It’s surprising he accepted the role.
There’s also Wesley Snipes who plays a role as a leader of a criminal gang. This role is not well written again but Snipes has done his part well and looks promising. The movie is a drag and a torture.
