Customer Rating:
Summary: Street Kings, so-so
Comment: Predictable plot, a little overacting here and there. Not too bad. If you're into shooting you'll notice that Keanu's character has had a little training. I liked it overall.
Customer Rating:

Summary: Vintage Instrumentals
Comment: I did not know if was possible for older music to come in CD form. The product was great and the timing perfect. The person I got it for is already playing it in her car everywhere she goes.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Surprisingly good...but not great
Comment: The screen play written by James Ellroy is about a troubled cop, a dirty but effective unit in the troubled LAPD and of course corruption that goes (da da dum) ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP. To paraphrase David Spade's Hollywood Minute - I liked it better the first time......when it was called "L. A. Confidential".
Still, if you like movies about cops and bad guys and don't want to watch LA Confidential again, this is a pretty good take on a story we never seem to get tired of watching. Its essentially the same story Ellroy has been writing since he began. Good cops trying to do the right thing in a bad world and having to answer the age old question "where does it all end? who polices the police?" At times I thought the story was going to devolve into a liberal PC morality lesson where the only bad guys are the cops and everyone else is an innocent victim, even the perps. Ellroy is too seasoned a writer to not give us a good story and a mystery. This movie may not be a classic and there's nothing really new here but it's a good re-telling of the troubled/dirty cop story.
And if that's the kind of thing you like, then you're going to like this kind of thing. Very watchable and engaging. The first extended sequence scene is particularly good starting with Keanu waking up and ending at the gang house. This seems to be a trademark of Ellroy in which the story is comprised of a sequence of gripping and compelling scenes and even though the ending maybe predictable, its a good ride.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Street Kings is a GREAT ACTION MOVIE!
Comment: Very good movie, AAA star cast. This is a great action movie and keeps you guessing through the whole movie. I would recommend watching.
