Assault on Precinct 13

I liked it. I thought it was a brilliant movie.

What an interesting start! Though, I thought it was silly that they used a cop that the person they were investigating would recognise. I guess that's the problem with going under cover... once your cover is blown and you attend trials... that's the end of your career in that field.

One thing I found strange about this movie... did they ever mention Precinct 13?? I swear I heard Precinct 21 a lot, but not 13...

I thought Ethan Hawke was pretty good. Very calm and collected. Ja Rule plays yet another criminal. It seems as if that's the only type of role he can get. I really like Maria Bello though. Too bad what happens to her character, but I thought she was quite good. And come on... Drea de Matteo... would you be a police officer looking like that??

Laurence Fishburne was really good though. I liked how he handled the situations he was in.

But basically, it's a story about dirty cops. Interesting to see how everything unravels!
