Diagonaldi Very well executed

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

jellicoe-3 This has got to be the worst film I have ever seen. I would have thought with the likes of Dennis Hopper, Michael Madsen and Charles Derning that it would have had some hope. Nope, not here. This movie is so bad I don't know where to start. Six people in a closet shooting at each other and no one gets hit. Not even a hint at police procedures. Moronic writing at it's best. I don't think any of the police cars even had matching light bars. Using lights and sirens on a code 2 call. I am going to have to look to see who was technical adviser, as who ever it was they know nothing about the LAPD, or even Mayberry PD much less Barney. Just a complete waste of 98 minutes of my life I will never get back.

Michael O'Keefe A disgrace trying to be a mirror of the L.A.P.D. A few aging stars coasting through a terrible script. Dirty cops wanting to turn against other dirty cops. Cops that don't want to be cops. Unrealistic, over-kill on the gun fire. Front line cast is made up of: Dennis Hopper, Michael Madsen, Marc Singer and Charles Durning. A glimmer of promise from Kiara Hunter, Carolyn Dunn and Brenda Campbell. This movie can serve as background noise while ing around the party dip and refilling the cold refreshments. I guess there is no law for bad acting. Even the simulated sex is terrible.

hazzare99 yes folks it's true. This was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I swear it was like watching a soft core porn movie without the sex just the incredibly bad acting and ridiculous scenes. It was as if Michael Madsen wasn't even trying to act well. I guess he knew where this movie was going. I thought he was a good actor (Reservoir Dogs, The Getaway, Natural Born Killers etc.) I'm not saying this didn't have moments that were entertaining. It's just that it wasn't meant to be so hilarious. For example, in one scene (of many when the dirty cops were stealing even more merchandise) (this time they even had a cube van to move the stuff) an old hobbling homeless derilict appears from behind an abandoned car and sees what is going on. The one cop says to the fattest cop you've ever seen "hey get that S. O. B." so he chases after this hobbling old homeless guy starts firing his gun from only a few feet away, can't take him down and comes back to report "I don't think he saw anything anyway". Couldn't figure out how a great like Hopper appeared in this flick but I gues the reason is the $$$$. They sure didn't mine killing innocent bystanders for the shear joy of viewer shock but then you get used to that after the first few minutes of the movie. Even the last scene that had Durning in in which he went to I.A. to help his son. Now the bad cop in I. A. thinks that he has to kill Durning and his own I. A. partner but the way he does it is idiotic. He shoots his partner with his own gun then shoots Durning with the same gun. Plants the same gun on his partner and pulls out this unfired gun and plants it on Durning as if this will fly. As if they don't do bullistic testing on murdered cops or people murdered in Internal Affairs offices. The fat cop was almost a caricature. I mean he was so ridiculous as a cop that it was hilarious and entertaing. He could probably a pretty good comedic actor.I was lucky enough (or unlucky enough) to see this on pay tv so I didn't have to rent it. I hear they even put a big picture of Hopper on the box to entice more rentals.

beingofsoundmind I read a lot of positive press about this Canadian-shot film, first when it was being made (in Vancouver) and soon after its release. Apparently the movie has been sold to every country in the world. Not bad for a modest little cop movie, featuring dependable names like Marc Singer (an 'iconic' actor as the earth-hero in the 1980's alien TV-series "V"), twitchy Michael Madsen (no doubt nabbing his spot in the new Bond film, due to all the hype surrounding his appearance here), good ol' Charles Durning, and venerable Dennis Hopper.Hopper weaves in and out throughout "LAPD" as an LAPD Division commanding officer. Singer is your basic good cop and Durning plays his Dad. Madsen plays a dirty cop (naturally).I give kudos to Marc Singer for delivering a modest, yet impressive performance.The movie is based on real life events, and there is more than enough blood 'n guts gun-play action here, coupled to numerous gorgeous (and gorgeously nude) women, to provide many entertaining diversions.I always get a kick out of the films produced by 'Maurice Smith Productions' and this show is no exception. Whether its 1969's "Cycle Savages" (with Bruce Dern), or Smith's 1980's (Roger Corman co-produced) teen comedies like "Screwballs" or "Recruits" (a hell of a lot funnier than any of the "Police Academys"), his films have always had a unique stamp of 'eccentricity' to them, usually to compensate for the budgetary constraints that most independent films (ie. non-studio films) have to deal with.If Smith can make a movie (that really DOES look like a movie) with the small budgets that he usually has to work with, then I am looking forward to see what he can do with some reel money. I hear he has a western, a sci-fi action piece and a supernatural mystery already lined up.The best is yet to come, I'm sure ...
