Having had considerable amount of contact with a few police departments I have to say that this movie captured the police culture like no other movie I have ever seen. Generally, directors either over exaggerate the evil of the police or leave it in some positive ferry tail haze.
And that sound! It was absolutely wonderful. The movie itself was captivating, but that sound somehow further forced my already undivided attention.
After seeing this movies I definitely want more.
