Yeah!

Rating: 8/10 (19 May 2002)

...this was a tough actionthriller.Many people don`t like it,it depends on how you take Washingtons character and story.I like D.Washington in this movie.It`s his first bad guy role and he fits it! He`s pretty mean and tough.Ethan Hawke,though,is kind of a sissy and it`s hard to believe this guy`s a cop.But never mind.It`s good,anyway! Story takes place in just one day and we follow the two characters throughout.Very violent sometimes,but exciting and well made. Good direction by newcomer Antoine Fuqua who has captured the realism of some of L.A`s worst drug-active neighborhoods.A memorable piece of work!
