End of Watch -- D: Ayer S: Gyllenhaal, Pena, Kendrick -- 9/28/12
Director: David Ayer (Harsh Times, Street Kings)
Writer: David Ayer (Training Day)
Cast: Jake Gyllenhaal, Michael Pena, Anna Kendrick
Plot: The story revolves around young Los Angeles police officers Taylor (Gyllenhaal) and Zavala (Pena) as they patrol the city's meanest streets of south central Los Angeles. The action unfolds entirely through footage from the handheld HD cameras of the police officers, gang members, surveillance cameras, and citizens caught in the line of fire to create a riveting portrait of the city's most dangerous corners, the cops who risk their lives there every day, and the price they and their families are forced to pay.

Not sure I like the way it's filmed, but it could be cool.

I have to say this looks pretty mediocre. Training Day was one of the most overrated films that year. Good but not great by any means. This looks pretty ho hum to me.

Looks awesome. The camera work especially seems intense.
The gritty look and feel reminds of me of Carnahans Narc.

It looks good, I loved Training Day. I came out of that theater like an Italian leaving Rocky.

Training Day and Street Kings were alright. I liked Harsh Times more though so I'm sure I'll check it out one time.

I went to a screening last week, and liked it very much. Training day is a better movie, but this is still good for what it is. If you liked the trailer, then you'll like the movie.

I'm a fan of Pena from The Shield, glad his career has been getting bigger over the last few years. Looking forward to seeing this tomorrow.
