Directed by Spike Lee, David Ayer.
In the wake of the L.A. riots, an LAPD cop (Keanu Reeves) who always went above and beyond the call of duty to keep the streets safe receives a startling wake-up call that leaves him convinced that he can no longer employ the tactics that made him so effective in his work. Training Day screenwriter David Ayer helms a script originally written by James Ellroy and subsequently revised by the director. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

"When it comes to the Film Speed, I would be willing to say, with confidence, that I am the worlds foremost expert on this flick. You see, I moved out of a house when I was in 4th grade and had to spend an entire summer living with my grandparents and family in a little tiny house while our new home was being built. Almost everyone of my posessions was packed away, execpt for one glorious movie that made my summer one to remember.To be honest, I'd say I've seen this movie well over 100 times.

"Sure, it’s good to be the king, be it Henry VII, Billie Jean or Stephen. But there are so-called “kings” of questionable virtue.1) The King of Pop: A dandy whose contributions to the music arts have been eclipsed by his personal predilection for young squires in his kingdom.2) Burger King: Rules by treating his subjects to high-fat, empty-calorie meals; contributes to obesity epidemic; stars in rather creepy commercials where he’s often depicted as a voyeur.3) Chess King: Flagrant violator of many laws of fashion; turns a blind eye while keeping his minions ensconced in garish, pseudo-suave outfits.We can now add the “Street Kings” to the list of those with dubious contributions during their sovereignty. While it possesses a few complimentary attributes, its overall merits are overshadowed by a number of tired cinematic truisms.Keanu Reeves heads a cast of misused and miscast talent in the latest police drama from a man (directo ...
