Brooklyn's Finest Reviews

Summary When NYPD's Operation Clean Up targets the notoriously drug-ridden BK housing project, three officers find themselves swept away by the violence and corruption of Brooklyn's gritty 65th Precinct and its most treacherous criminals. During seven fateful days, Eddie, Sal and Tango find themselves hurtling inextricably toward the same fatal ...

The title Brooklyn's Finest is drowning in irony, of course, but Fuqua's moves are less obvious: His film is classical and gritty, his violence makes you want to duck and run.

Fuqua's portrait of Brooklyn is brutal and gritty; if only his characters were as vivid.

i loved this movie.. great premis and great acting no doubt. It was great to see wesley snipes back at it . He was gone for a while and its a good think he did not loose his skills ****

The lives of 3 veteran Brooklyn PD officers, all from different spectrums of the force seemingly intertwine in this gritty, realistic cop movie led by powerful performances by Ethan Hawke, Don Cheadle, Wesley Snipes and especially Richard Gere.

At one sip per cuss word, though, few viewers will still be conscious for the ending, in which the three cops finally come to the same place, each for an entirely different but equally ridiculous reason.

Like Tango, Sal and Eddie, Mr. Fuqua and Mr. Martin dig themselves into a pulpy predicament, and then find themselves unable to do anything but shoot their way out. The movie is wounded, but it’s also too tough to kill.

In the end, audiences will be neither shaken nor stirred. Just bored and confused.

Antoine Fuqua’s second-rate retread of his own "Training Day" is a bloated, multithread drama concerning three burnt-out cops at the end of their seemingly unconnected ropes.

Simultaneously full of itself and full of sh--, Brooklyn's Finest is a cop movie so shallow, dumb, derivative and infuriating that it feels like a parody of bad cop movies.

In my eyes, Antoine Fuqua is a one hit wonder, much like Carl Douglasâ

"Every man has a moment of truth" Great story.good acting ;Richard Gear and Ethan Hawke

This movie has 3 stories intertwined with each other. I like these kind of movies; some are excellent like â

I bought this movie on Blu-Ray for $9.99 and hoped that I purchased a good movie, but when I started watching the movie I realized I was wrong. This movie should be called Brooklyn's Crappiest because that's what it is. As a person that grew up in Brooklyn, NY in between Sunset Park and Bay Ridge, believe me when I say this is not Brooklyn's Finest. The only thing this movie has right is the scenery and that's not saying much, but because it made me almost feel like I was back in BK it gets a 6 out of 10. I wanted to see these so called "Finest" at their finest hour(s) not their worst hour(s). This movie almost makes Brooklyn look bad in most peoples eyes when sadly it really is not. Brooklyn and Queens are by far the best and nicest places to live in New York City. If you want to watch a good movie checkout: The Departed, American Gangster, or even Serpico.

A Film Review By: Sam Fragoso "Brooklyn's Finest" **1/2 In my opinion Brooklyn's Finest was an average movie at best. I think I might of expected so much because of the great cast thats in it. It feels like something is missing towards then end and the ending is some what unpredictable but for me it wasn't my favorite film by Fuqua. Overall the movie was average at best and I say "Rent it".
