Street Kings

Hard Action Blu-ray 3-Pack (Hitman / Street Kings / Man on Fire) [Blu-ray]
$69.99
I bought this from Amazon's Gold Box for $31.99 and that's a good deal for 3 Blu-Ray action movies that are pretty good. Man On Fire being the best followed by Street Kings.

The Street King
$9.99
Another great Mario Lopez movie. A lot of action and violence. Not for the squeamish! Recommended... has good performances by the entire cast.

Street Kings (Special Edition + Digital Copy)
$34.98
'Street Kings' is a typical story of Cops using alternate methods to fight the crime. Result... some of the schemes does not look ethical. We are introduced to our main cast Tom Ludlow (played by Keanu Reeves) an old hand LAPD, who is haunted by his past, is questioned when one of his mate Washington (enacted by Terry Crews) gets massacred which seems to be a regular shoot out case. Circumstantial evidences leads Ludlow as the suspect. Though initially this case looked usual, further inquiry takes us deep into the world of corruption and manipulation of evidences to hide some grimy truth. This movie portrays how Ludlow questions his loyalty towards his unit who seemed to be behind the murder of his friend & how he ultimately deals with it.

Reeves' role as Ludlow was believable but not great. Though the movie initially starts with a pace, in between it seemed a little bit exhausted. I will not grumble that I got jaded with the movie but on the other hand this movie could have been more exhilarating, if we had the chance to see some character development. None of the characters were well explored. This is no 'L.A. Confidential' which had if truth be told had given us a hell of ride.

'Street Kings' is stand alone in its own way, but fails to give an everlasting impact.
