Buddy cops, done with style

[elektra]

End of Watch is a straight up, nose-to-the-grindstone glimpse into the day to day life of beat cops in LA. It’s touch and real as you watch two good friends deal with the violence in their lives with bad jokes, and by clinging to their relationships when things really get bad. It’s well worth seeing–my full review is at buzzmag.

An excerpt:
