Street Kings (2008)

April 11

This is probably the most random, yet well fit together cast in any movie. Keanu Reeves plays probably his most complex character besides Neo. Forest Whitaker was no doubt the best actor, only because Hugh Laurie had such a small yet elegant part. It was interesting seeing him outside his House character, and using the "f" word was strange. If only every time he showed up on screen, I didn't think, That's House! He had some of the same mannerisms, but was a completely different, cool character. Chris Evans annoyed me so much in Fantastic Four that he ruined the entire movie. In this movie, he is my favorite character. Jay Mohr and Naomie Harris were perfect for the roles they had. Cedric the Entertainer didn't annoy me for the first time in history. As for the plot, another usual corrupt cop story, but with some unpredictable twists thrown in, and some of the best crime characters to make it fresh.

8.7/10.0
