Crown Vic

Decent LAPD flick. Nothing special but definitely worth a watch. Thomas Jane killed it. Check it out.

Acting, writing, cinematography, directing: all better than I expected. Ridiculous if you know anything about actual police procedure but like a lot of shows it is quite entertaining in an intense sort of way if you put your critical thinking in a drawer before you watch it. I didn't feel like turning it off after the first 20 minutes and it held up until the end.

But still extremely good enough. its the lapd squad car on patrol again, weve seen them before, and more will come.

its the training day for the rookie rookie, and papa copper tells you what to do, what to say, what to shut up about, and how to do things best to ensure your own safety, so that you might have a long life unharmed in the force, so remember to look at his hands whatever you do....

its a lot of carriding, with some snack here and there, and if you know the police code youll be far better into the story. the acting are good, the sound effects sit in the guts, the mental state of a copper are well described, and near the end your just pinned to the chair to what happens next.

i usually dont like films like this, i like better the opposite part, heists and robberies and such stuff, but the grumpy old man had a nice ride in the dark l.a. streets, and will therefore recommend you to too.

Well done cop movie which I manage to watch with fingers crossed until the end. Good actors and apart from few prolonged scenes which don't bring much value it's a summary of most likely underpaid professional work.

Didn't expect much but really enjoyed this. Its more all about people and really there is little action for a police film. It tells the story of a new cop's first night shift on the job with a senior officer whose first day it is as a training officer. The story develops and there is more to it than just a night shift. Apart from a little bit in the middle, the film keeps your attention. Most of the action you see from or around the Crown Vic. Some of the action happens off camera as it happens away from the Crown Vic. You also see the arrest and then they are back on patrol. It is very well acted and written. There are some things didn't like. There is 10min in the middle where it gets very dull. I am not sure the timeline works. I do not know about US police but don't they have to book in prisoners and process them? The timeline seemed to have them arrest, take the prisoner back, book them in, process them and back in the car in minutes. The ending is also very arupt. Apart from this it is a good character driven film. There is little action so I wouldn't watch it expecting an action cop film.
