A messy derivative downbeat cop movie about the mean streets of Brooklyn.

Tawdry, slick and self-consciously gritty.

The problem for filmmakers trying to make this kind of movie is that they are now operating in a post-Wire world.

Any movie that ends on a freeze frame of Richard Gere walking stoically away from a crime scene teeming with police car lights can't be all good.

On second thought, Brooklyn's Finest does indeed provide a new genre twist. This must be the only cop movie ever made where a character is driven off the deep end by mold.

An impressive and gritty cop drama with three strong leading performances.

the film's remarkable cast helps Fuqua bring his sprawling web of nastiness to another level
January 03, 2014
Fuqua once again proves his mastery of the cop/crime drama genre, making for the best of its kind since 'The Departed.'
April 08, 2012
Paints with grimy authenticity a despairing, warts-and-all portrait of cops and criminals, turning the idea of the title on its head and then some.

As directed by Antoine Fuqua, the film is well-acted, occasionally hair-raising but ultimately made from stale material.

The movie is wounded, but it's also too tough to kill.
