NO SPOILERS, make your own thread if you want to spoil it for everyone else.
Great flick. It was dusty in there for me at least.

I saw it with the wife tonight and it made her want to become a cop. I thought it was a good movie, hopefully it brings a little more awareness to these 2 things. 1. Cops are people too and 85% of them are just like me and you, quit giving them a hard time for no reason. 2. The Mexican cartel are shit heads lets secure the borders. |

Aye good flick , basically Fast and Furious the movie still not a fan of the whole found footage shaky cam fad I despise shaky cam, I'm not sure why any directeor would ever let there be a single scene of shaky cam in any movie. No one wants to see a movie that looks like the camera man had parkinsons. Shaky cam pretty much ruined the Bourne movies for me. IIRC Resident Evil 2 is pretty much 90 minutes of shaky cam and it got the worst reviews out of all of the RE movies. |

I just got back and thought it was one of the better cop movies I've seen in years. maybe one of the best actual flicks of the year. Yes, the shaky cam sucks, but I still enjoyed it. and probably the best thing, no political BS Almost hard to imagine these days, and I'm looking forward to seeing it. |

Looking forward to seeing it. I think my shift is gonna get together Tuesday and check it out. I just noticed your avatar...Rick Monday 10-4 Outside of military and LE acts of heroism, I believe what Rick Monday did In April of 1976 was one of the greatest acts of patriotism this country has known. |

Wife and I saw this for date night last night. Usually Arfcom has great taste in movies but this movie was horrible. Little action, shaky cam found footage bs, and the bad guys were given very little camera time. I want my $25.00 and my two hours back. The "main" group of 4 hoods were such HORRIBLE actors that I was actually thankful for the fact that they got very little screen time. |

Yeah, that's kind of creepy.

Just got back from seeing it. Pretty accurate depiction of the LAPD. Good movie except for the shaky camera.
I would not say it was the same movie as "Colors". As another poster pointed out, the only similarities are they are both about the LAPD and gangs in L.A. "Colors" and "End of Watch" are the two movies that most accurately depict the LAPD that I have seen. |
I came to this thread expecting some rant on how watches are obsolete. I have a very nice self-winder glass backed watch when I wear it, I only do as an accessory to my suit in professional environments. I do not think I have bothered to set the time and date on it for years
