I just finished watching "Street Kings" starring Keanu Reaves & Forest Whitaker with cameos by The Game & Common.
This movie feels so much like Training Day it could be a sequel (minus Denzel of course), but thats not really a bad thing. Keanu plays your typical 'bad cop' (an alcoholic who 'bends' the rules and has a penchant for extreme violence) who sets out to avenge the murder of his former partner. Along the way he discovers the murder to have been more than a random act of violence and a conspiracy begins to reveal itself. I'll leave it there and save the spoilers. But I will say this is a dope action/cop movie with a strong enough plot to keep me engaged for 2 hours.
PROPS go to:
Forest Whitaker for being the man in every movie he makes!
Common for pulling off a not half bad cameo (despite his character having some of the shittest dialogue).
NO PROPS go to:
The Game for accepting a bullshit (stereotyped-to-fuck) role and being lame with it.
The casting director for thinking Cedric 'The Entertainer' could convincingly play a smack-head dope dealer LOL.
