Street Kings
Street Kings is all too familiar.Post-Neo Keanu Reeves stars in a film about the devoted cop getting screwed by the very system that he swore allegiance to. Tom Ludlow (Keanu) is a beleaguered veteran LAPD that is framed for a crime he didn’t commit. Worse, his long time friends and superiors in the “force” could be the very people who betrayed him. This typically goes the runaround with the mouse chasing the cat for retribution. Same old same old.But wait. Street Kings is directed by David Ayer, the man behind Training Day, and written by James Ellroy (the Black Dahlia, L.A Confidential). If the tandem could amass their past works into this one, Street Kings definitely would reach a higher level. It could even touch the toe of The Departed.Street Kings would be shown in Philippine Cinemas on April 16.
