America's Solution

There is nothing impressive about the filming, the beginning looks unremarkable, there are too many clues to hide, and the audience needs to scrutinize, but the shady side is very wide, as long as you can see it clearly.
Tom is a person who has always hated sin and fought it in the most direct way. When he realized the truth of the matter, he did not die or be forced to leave the office like the righteous characters in other movies, but chose the same way as always—— fight back and kill. The movie embodies the American way of dealing with a heinous crime - lynching, but I think there's no better way to deal with such an endless darkness.
The interpersonal relationship of the film is very similar to "Infernal Affairs", but the nature of the reaction is different, which can be regarded as an independently created American version of "Infernal Affairs".

    Ayer, do you dare to point out something different from the training day - there is a problem with the script, the acting is even lower, it's boring. When I watched "Brown's Requiem", I remembered that I wrote a short comment that "Zhan Shen's writing of contemporary police stories is not much higher than that of Ayer's films", and this film is probably the proof. Zhan Shen should continue to write LA Quartet 2.0 or American Underground 2.0, and see as much as you write.

    is it about justice?

Street Kings quotes

  • Tom Ludlow: This has to be you and me.

    Detective Paul Diskant: Why do you think we're in the goddamn bathroom?

  • Captain Jack Wander: [after Ludlow tears down his wall] This is my power. This is my crown. I'm the king of secrets, Tom. I know which city councilmen is doing lines. I know who likes boys, I know who's selling contracts, I know who beat his wife. I own them, even the chief. He's in my pocket, Tom. How do you think I've been able to protect you all these years? What do you think is it you're doing? All these missions. How do you think you're able to touch the untouchables? I'm going to be chief. I will be chief! I will be mayor! This is our world, Tom! So let's take it!

    Tom Ludlow: Is that why you put a hit on Washington? Why you tried to kill me? So you can keep stuffing money in your wall?

    Captain Jack Wander: But this is our money. The unit's. Who do you think paid for Silky's defense, through all those law suits? Who's going to pay for your retirement? I'm just correcting a flaw in the system, Tom. This is about cops helping cops. And if a teacher, or a fireman, could do it, they would do it too.

    Tom Ludlow: What happened to just locking up bad people?

    Captain Jack Wander: We're all bad, Tom.

    Tom Ludlow: You were my best friend.

    Captain Jack Wander: You were family.
