Officer Downe

first off, this is way better than 4.6 average score. if you're into grind-house, over-the-top-violence, b-movies and/or heavy metal music, this is right up your alley. and yeah, there is some stuff which is really silly, but hey, it works within the film and for me, so, I'm okay with that. for sure, it's not for everyone, hence the bad score, but if you enjoy "Hobo with a Shotgun" or "Fathers Day" or any Troma release, go for this one. (on Netflix US now, April 2017)

The dialog, the aesthetics, the zany characters, the acting is all so brilliantly bad. The thing is, the movie leans into the horrible qualities of the film so heavily that it stops acting as a film and acts more as a performance art piece, and creates a masterclass of entertaining yet unwatchably stupid action, mental story lines and an overall shockingly great movie.

It's gory, corny, campy fun so if you're expecting something that's intended to be taken seriously you're watching the wrong movie.If you like B-movies you'll probably like this.

This film was totally trash, in a good way, so your wondering why only four out of ten, well the film's impact didn't last for the whole movie. The first hour was great. Great pace, great humour and action sequences, nudity and tons of bad language but it just seems that they had rum out of steam before the end credits. If you like your movies loud, foul and big then you will love this movie. Okay you will have to switch your mind off and just enjoy the over the top film in all it's glory. Even big breasted mother supreme gets a look in, shame we didn't see more of her. If a second one came out I would watch it. Enjoy the movie for what it is.

"I've got the badge and I've got the will. I am LAPD, so let me show you how it's done." Office Downe (Coates) is the best cop in the force. He has no fear and is relentless in his pursuit of justice. After a new recruit (Ross) discovers his secret he isn't sure what to think. Now Gable is stuck between doing what he thinks is right, or what he thinks is best. This is a very stylized movie that is exciting, but not for everyone. The movie is based off of a graphic novel and is filmed and edited to really have the feel of that one. This movie has flashes of Sin City, Bunraku and and even Scott Pilgrim. The way it is filmed and the over the top acting and action really fit in a movie like this and actually adds to the enjoyment. This is not a movie that will make you think but it will entertain you for the entire time and that is what a movie is ultimately supposed to do. I laughed and was entertained. Do not however, expect to watch an award winning movie. Overall, the movie is essentially a live-action graphic novel a la Sin City and pulls off its intention perfectly. I give this a B.
