In Reply to: Very little action, bad guy almost no screen time, talky-girly film. Still, posted by tinear on October 1, 2012 at 08:47:46:
Opening scene, 10 minutes or so, car chase and cop shootout with two dirtbags, scratch two dirtbagsOur two heroes go to an apt. to arrest a "blood". He challenges the cop to a bare fistfight. One of my favortie scenes.
4 Meskin gangstuhs do a driveby on homeboy's crew. One blood killed. In the process, Big Evil, from the Meskin crew, sets a cinema record for the highest rate of "fucks", used in conversation, per minute.
Our heroes stop a punk in a p.u. truck, shot fired at one of our heroes, find money and one cool ass AK
Our heroes on night patrol rescue two chillens from a burning house and receive the Medal of Valor
Our heroes, acting on pure instinct, roust a house, disarm and arrest a Meskin, finding dozens of mules(?) held in squalid conditions in the process.
Our heroes break into a house and find L.A.'s largest drug cache ever and many dead, tortured, bodies
Our heroes are ambushed in the movies finale and have a running gunbattle for the ages.
Our heroes even comment on their colleagues' comments about the amount of action they've been involved in. Had they been involved in anymore, IMHO, the show starts to lose its credibility and venture into mindless summer popcorn flick territory.
JMHO and all that.
And yea, sure, a cupla scenes were too talky, but this flick was light years from being a talky girly film.
