Street Kings (2008)
Released: April 11, 2008
Director: David Ayer
*****
"Street Kings" asks the audience to define corruption. Is a cop who
goes outside the system to bring criminals to justice corrupt? How
about a police department full of officers who watch each other´s backs
in an off-the-books investigation when one of their own is killed? Is a
commander protecting his subordinates when they get out line
corruption? These are the questions the film poses to the audience and
asks us to navigate as the characters work their way through a web of
deceit and, yes, corruption.
