Not Antoine Fuqua’s best work. The acting was good, but I could not relate nor sympathize very much with any of the conflicted police officers. The story was predictable, and the pace slow. Save a few bucks and re-watch Training Day.

Amazing performance by every member of the cast. Story lines were interesting enough in the beginning, but drags a little bit towards the end. It is a hyper-link film and I think Fuqua could've linked each story line better, in a more cohesive way. The typical Hollywood, moral-high-road ending was disappointing. I expected something more interesting, unexpected, ambiguous, or just more thought-provoking. But as I mentioned before, Amazing performances.

I was I bit disappointed with this movie. I thought the movie would be more action packed but it was more of a slow moving, no real story kind of movie.

Can't believe Richard Gere put his reputation on the line for this one. No story to speak of and just so much violence and bad language that it wasn't even enjoyable just to look at Richard Gere which is usually good. Don't mind violence and swearing, but that's all this one was and no real story.

Lots of violence!! This was more interesting than I thought it was going to be because of the good acting by don Cheadle and Ethan hawkes. Plot is basic and predictable.

I could not believe Richard Gere in this movie. It makes police look real bad. It's too loud. The swearing and violence is too much. We walked out after 30 minutes. I should have asked for a refund. Don't waste your money.

Likely a realistic look into cops working in hell-hole areas like they were in the movie. Rather dark and maybe better to watch when our own economy has improved.

A dark ransom has been bestowed upon those who encrypt their wallets with drug money. Thank Hollywood the tale of a cop can never be told twice. This catalogue of greed unfolds with a slow violence until the climax drains any hope for inner city peace. Don Cheadle turned a dull script into a sharp gritty drama for any gun and badge fan.

To anyone who said it was amazing, they are clearly not going out to see enough movies. That said, it certainly wasn't as bad as I expected. The plot was decent, even somewhat unpredictable at times. The acting was not the best but certainly not the worst either. I guess the movie is simply a mish-mash of things you've already seen a thousand times put together unoriginally. Either way, you could do better but you could do worse. I guess that's how to sum up this kind of movie.

With an A-listed cast, was expecting a lot more than what I got. Wait for the DVD rental because then, you could forward the first hour of the movie before it gets interesting. The acting was decent even Richard Gere but the storylines not so good.

What a disappointment! Some great actors who all must have agreed because the other guys were doing it. Violent. Disjointed. Boring in places. Completely forgettable. (I hope)

I am not going to listen to the movie critics anymore. What do they know anyway?! This was a really good movie with 3 stories intertwined and it was very well done.

This was the slowest to get going movie I've ever been to. Even worse than "Australia" which was painfully long and boring. This one too, took about half an hour to get going and to figure out that the story wasn't as complicated as we were trying to make it. Way too much gross violence and bad language, don't mind a little violence if there is a good story, but there is not. Richard Gere must be desperate to work to do this movie.

Gritty, fast-paced but very dark slice of life as lived by the urban American underclass. The violence is non-stop but not offensive because somehow it seems natural. The African-American dialogue sounded like a foreign language and was almost incomprehensible. Worth seeing for the acting alone. Ethan Hawke is outstanding, and even Richard Gere delivers a fine performance.

To tell you the truth I wasn't expecting a lot from this movie. I saw the preview and I was like "yeah" I am going to see this one, but really with no expectation. The movie kept my attention all the way through, trying to analyze what was going on. The end is not what you would expect but still a good movie. The way the movie was created it reminded me of another movie, I won't tell... I'll let you enjoy it...

This is a gritty realistic urban drama that carries weight (literally) Those complaining of violence and profanity are naive to the inner city realities. A movie as such if stripped of its explicit material would be sanitized and would lose its meaning.

The 3 storylines are plots we have all seen before; it would have been nice if the storylines could have interwined, could have made for a superb ending. Good to see Wesley Snipes back in action, Don Cheadle, as usual had a good performance as did Ethan.

This is a good movie, if you don't mind seeing a story that's been told several times before. But I just can't give it a 7. The acting is good, especially Richard Gere. Although I do have to give kudos to both Don Cheadle and Ethan Hawke for their roles as well. There just wasn't much originality to it. And there certainly is a sense of inevitable doom, again like in most other movies that pretty much told this story. 6/10, not bad but actually closer to good.
