Review of Cop Land

Cop Land (1997)
Give it 7 of 10, good story of some bad cops brought to justice.
26 August 2000
I suppose what I liked most about Cop Land was the role Sly Stallone played, as the half-competent town sheriff who was expected to look the other way when shady dealings involving the NYC cops who lived there came around. Turns out he is quite a good shot, although he can't hear worth a damned out of his right ear. Some shooting, much use of the F-word, but all-in-all a good story with a "feel-good" ending as the bad guys get what they deserve. Actors include Harvey Keitel, Robert DeNiro, Ray Liotta, Isabella Sciorra.

Saw the DVD version, fine picture, great sound, especially during the various crashes, good use of "surround" sound. Worth a look if you like intense cop films. 7 of 10.
