A good effort, but the star power on show throws the proceedings off kilter somewhat, hiking up an expectation that the film ultimately cannot live up to.

Cop Land shares its leading man's slow-wittedness, but also his likability.
April 09, 2008
A solidly entertaining drama that stays true to the independent spirit of its filmmakers
April 09, 2008
A low-key tale of corrupt cops that recalls the gritty police procedurals of the 70s.

Top acting honors go to Ray Liotta as Gary Figgis, a cokehead cop who just might be Freddy's only friend.

Mangold certainly knew what he was doing when he cast Keitel and De Niro.

Mangold is something of a pseudo-Scorsese.

not your traditional action flick, nor your traditional cop flick. It has elements of each, all wrapped up in a new type of story that drips in realism and gray characters.

At times, it's like three episodes of NYPD Blue jammed together and whittled down to feature length.

Although too simplistic in its good-guys/bad-guys approach to morally and emotionally ambiguous material, Cop Land emerges as an absorbing and dramatic yarn about exposing the evil doings of some of New York's finest.

It sizzles toward an explosive and satisfying climax in which everything -- Stallone included -- fully bursts into life.
April 09, 2008
It's pretty funny, actually, that Stallone gained 40 pounds to play this role, and what the movie needs more than anything else is to eat a salad and do some sit-ups.
