Brute Force With a Badge

CrimeDramaAction

A tough-guy cop pursues two drug runners across the city to bust a large syndicate. Very much an anti-hero, Mitchell often ignores the orders of his superiors and demonstrates disdain for by-the-book development work as well as normal social graces.

VIBE

A hard-boiled, cynical dive into the underbelly of a city. This film feels like a smoke-filled room, where morality is gray and the only way to get things done is to get your hands dirty. Expect tough talk and tougher action.
