Notes et avis

I'm an old man now, but back in the day I was upper middle class dipping low in the hood and earned my stripes every time the game called me up, didn't give no one up, never named names and did my time. This movie is spot on how big city PD can go, it's like the FBI backing one mobster to catch all the others. It's always good to have a teammate that'll do dirt.

Forest Whitaker: "I know​ which one does lines; I know which ones likes little boys." Street Kings is a movie that fast pace walks you through corruption. At the end of the movie you realize there are no more clear distinctions between the good guys or the bad guys. Everything is relative to everything else. The court system; the police. Nothing is pure or clean. Justice is more like transactional commerce. It's bad. Changing it probably means burning it all down and starting over. Yeah at the expense of some worse things but the system can be better for it.

This movie is AMAZING! I remember it from YEARS back. One of the best gang/ street criminal movies ever made! I've never seen it mentioned as one of the top crime/gang movies, but Reeves character in this movie is awesome, ESPECIALLY the beginning of the movie & how your introduced to him, wow!
