No it was a drama. I liked the book better than the movie.

This flick seems like a bash on cops.
 It sucks. |

The jumper on the roof is one of the best parts.
Just don't use the same logic late at night on a Guy threatening to shoot himself. It's not as funny.  Ed |

A great book. Read it in high school and became a Wambaugh fan. He is a great writer. The movie? Meh. Can't do justice to the book.
