Dark Blue isn't a great movie, but it isn't the worst. - aj79

Similar in many respects to Training Day, Dark Blue goes beyond the good cop/bad cop scenario. It delves into the logic and reasoning behind the corruption as well as some of the issues facing police departments nationwide. The movie brings up several good points about cops; how they are loved/hated by the public; how the corruption comes about; and how the political correctness of the day is leaving the police helpless. The movie follows common clichés, from the corruption in the LAPD and the frustrated wives, to the pissing contests between the two power figures. The movie also attempts to portray the feelings and attitudes of police officers and civilians (both white and black) at the outcome of the Rodney King trial, and the movie's ending takes place just as the riots are getting underway. It is an interesting side-bar look at a city's reaction to a highly-publicized case that, one way or another, affected most of the country.

Above average cop thriller - ivarknut

Set in the days before the Rodney King verdict, and ending just as the verdict comes in.

The movie is an above average cop thriller made for adults. The story is by James Ellroy and you can tell that it's more than just your run of the mill cop stories.

Kurt Russell plays a dirty cop, in a dirty police force. His partner is a younger cop who is just learning the ropes. On top of that, there are some political movements in the department that they get involved with. Worth checking out!
