Impressive actors(acting), disappointing screenplay

Rating: 7/10 (11 April 2019)

A sleek thriller! The strength of the movie isn't it's plot but the actors who build the characters throughout the plot - a fame-hungry cop(Spacey), a reckless but righteous cop(Crowe), a political but upright cop(Pearce) and others who represent a slick, corrupt system. The movie takes off after it has progressed to almost 75% of it's length so you gotta be patient. The plot has aplenty loose ends which make it seem illogical and predictive. The director seems to have rushed to wind-up the movie after stretching it a bit farther than required. The background score is average.
Definitely a must-watch.
P.S: The entire plot twist hinges on a two events which amount for less than 5 minutes of the movie time.
