EvenHand (2002)

My adolescent son rented this "cop" film "EVENHAND" a couple of days ago, and I reluctantly agreed to watch with him. He got bored with it after thirty minutes, but I was actually intrigued and decided to give it a try. I was, in effect, blown away! I didn't realize that there were "cop" films like this.

It kind of reminded me of the early "NYPD Blues" series before it got weird and convoluted. I was very impressed with the two actors, and, since I never seen their work before, I thought perhaps they were two police officers who decided to make a movie about their lifes. That's how realistic it seemed! When I see actors like this who are unknown, and then I see all the mediocre actors on tv, I have to ask...
