I was quite impressed with "Dark Blue." I was expecting it to be just another cop movie, but I was pleasantly surprised that it dealt with the issues of corruption and "dirty tactics" that some of this nation's police departments employ. In a way, this movie very much reminded me of the TV series "The Shield", in which questionable tactics are employed in order to bring the bad guys down. Kurt Russell was superb in this film, as was Ving Rhames and nearly all of the supporting actors. I highly recommend this film to anyone who enjoys police dramas. "Dark Blue" expresses shades of "L.A. Confidential" though it is set in a completely different period. A very good movie.
