Street Kings

STREET KINGS (2008) - Apr. 11
Featuring Keanu Reeves as a cop so grizzled he takes his gun with him into the bathroom to brush his teeth, and drinks vodka out of little airplane bottles, this was a cheesy film -- but it was the best kind of cheesy. It was a really enjoyable cop thriller about a gritty cop trying to solve the murder of his ex-partner. It's pretty predictable all the way through and hard to take too seriously, but it was very entertaining and featured some really good performances, including a scenery-chewing turn by Forest Whitaker. ***
