Review of Q&A

Q&A (1990)
7/10
Really excellent cop movie with a great script.

I'm always looking for lesser know cop/detective movies and i really liked Q&A. It isn't super action packed but it has a such a great script with sharp dialogue which makes it very easy to get drawn in. Nick Nolte plays a dirty cop who is trying to cover his tracks after murdering a suspect in cold blood and Timothy Hutton is the deputy district attorney who's sent to investigate the case. Nolte is awesome and his character is a complete sleazy scum bag yet everyone in the force thinks he's awesome because he always gets the job done.

What i love about this movie is everyone acts and speaks like real people. Yes, there's a lot of racist, sexist and homophobic language in this movie but that's how real people speak and it gives the movie a realistic feel and i applaud it for that. Pretty much everyone gives a strong performance in this movie and i highly recommend it if you're a fan of tough 80's and 90's cop movies.

No bull, just a well made movie. Thumbs up!
