Corrupt Cop films

[Shansl5]

I've just seen 16 Blocks. It's a great film. I seem to like corrupt cop films - is anyone else a fan of this genre? All the ones I can think of have been really good films -

Touch of Evil
LA Confidential
Copland
Training Day
16 Blocks

Prince Of The City

Serpico

Q & A

all directed by Sidney Lumet, king of the genre.

I've not seen any of those (although I can't help thinking that I must have seen Serpico at some point in the past!) I'll check them out.

The Departed. Brilliant film. Serpico as well. Anything with Pacino in it is usually excellent.

If your a fan of corrupt Cop movies you should check out the tv series The Shield. I was hooked after epsiode 1 and bought all the dvRAB.

For movies there is also The Corruptor, a great movie starring Chow Yun Fat and Infernal Affairs, City on Fire.

Unlawful Entry (1992) with Ray Liotta

I just realised, of course I've seen Serpico. The Departed also.

Another really good one is Narc, wth Ray Liotta.

Two spring to mind :

Internal Affairs



Bad Lieutenant

 

[luv_2_homeschool]

The Recruit springs to mind.

 

[You Ask I Answer]

Recommend The Shield as well, a whole 6 series of corrupt cops to get into there, including the best opening episode of any series I've ever seen.

'Serpico' is an awesome movie.
'Training Day'
'Magnum Force'
'LA Confidential'

 

[Jesus4me]

Serpico is the greatest

 

[KK3vin]

Batman Begins has a corrupt cop in it. Does that count

 

[Kaylonie]

I don't know about that, but the greatest and most corrupt cop film of all time has got to be Will Hay's Ask a Policeman!

Ransom

Black Rain?
bad lieutenant
Q&A

 

[magpie_complex]

Bad Lieutenant is amazing!

Magnum Force.

Not bad cops but bad judges - The Star Chamber is rather good.
