87: Serpico (1973) and Veteran (베테랑) (2015)
Manage episode 302013804 series 2901289
Good Cop is this weeks theme. Based on a true story, Al Pacino is at his best as a good cop who struggles with the entrenched corruption of the New York City Police Department in Serpico (1973). The fifth Sidney Lumet film we've reviewed on the show and M&A both found it to really good, but not great. From South Korea, Veteran (2015) is a raucous and sometimes humorous story about a good cop finding justice in a corrupt system. The guys thought it to be loads of fun in a Jackie Chan sort of way.
Next up, Bad Cop with two films neither have seen, Fireworks (はなび)(1997)The Killer Inside Me (2010).
Thanks for listening!
