large cast of characters keeps things fresh (though Reeves is actually quite good in this), the body count is absurdly high – maybe a little too high, come to think of it – and of course, there's plenty of action. In fact, talking it up so much has made me want to see it again.
Movie Grade: A-
Synopsis:
Keanu Reeves plays Tom Ludlow, a veteran LAPD Vice Detective. Ludlow sets out on a quest to discover the killers of his former partner, Detective Terrance Washington (Crews). Whitaker plays Captain Wander, Ludlo's supervisor, whose duties include keeping him within the confines of the law and out of the clutches of Internal Affairs Captain Biggs (Laurie). Ludlow teams up with a young Robbery Homicide Detective (Evans) to track Washington's killers through the diverse communities of Los Angeles. Their determination pays off when the two Detectives track down Washington's murderers and confront them in an attempt to bring them to justice.
