Black & Blue
Alicia West (Naomie Harris) is a rookie cop who returns to her hometown of New Orleans after 2 tours of duty for the Army in Afghanistan. When she accidentally captures a drug dealer execution by crooked cops, she becomes framed for the crime & must get her body cam footage to the proper authorities to prove her innocence. If you haven’t guessed by the title, West is black & a cop. Now, she is on the run & doesn’t know who she can trust. This is a tense action thriller although a bit predictable. Tyrese Gibson plays a reluctant assistant from the hood. Frank Grillo is Terry Malone, one of the dirty cops trying to cover up their mistakes. If you like underdog stories where the hero struggles against great odds with a little help from their friends, you might enjoy this good cop versus bad cops & gang bangers plot. In a world filled with racism & injustice, people just need to step up to make a difference.
Alien gives it 3 “Missy & Mouse” stars out of 4.
