End of Watch
AroView: David Ayer, writer of TRAINING DAY, gives us another bracing cautionary tale of Los Angeles law enforcement, here following the good police work of two LAPD officers whose job performance attracts the unwanted attention of a Mexican drug cartel.
Striving for authenticity via the use of self-documented footage and dashboard cams (a la TV show ‘Cops’), this paints a fairly unforgiving picture of crime on the beat, though it goes for all out sensationalism in the final reel.
“One of the best police movies in recent years, a virtuoso fusion of performances and often startling action.” ~Roger Ebert
