Sheriff Freddy Heflin (Stallone) is an ordinary officer who spends his boring life in the town where he lives. Time passes so slow in a quiet little town of “Cop Land”. This bulky sheriff does nothing other than controlling traffic and surrendering to his pinball addiction. When a misfire broke out in town, Freddy jumped into it with the help of Lt. Moe Tilden (Robert De Niro). This seems like a big leap of the career-stuck sheriff. Two thumbs of for Stallone for giving up his all muscles body, something is well-maintained for years and also his choice for accepting a role much different from h... Leer el resto

Weird that it took me so long to watch given the cast. Look, Cop Land isn't the best movie in the filmography of anybody involved, but it was a worthwhile watch, and a nice way to break up the crap horror we've been on a bender of lately.

Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go.

This has a really good ensemble cast, but the sum of the parts really don't add up to much of an whole. Sylvester Stallone is local sheriff "Freddy", in charge of policing a small town - Garrison - near New York that is largely populated by it's police officers. The television news reports and our frequent attendance at the cemetery soon demonstrate to us that being a cop has become an even more perilous affair. Just who is behind this new danger?

Well, it has almost everyone that could really act in the 90s in it. That is a plus.

And Stallone actually does a great job of being a washed up no-nothing out of shape small town sheriff. He rarely takes roles that actually require him to act so it's always a shock when you see films and realize that, no, Sly is in fact really a stellar actor. This is one of those movies.

It's also one of those movies that stays with you as a classic. Not as well known as Chinatown, but the kind of movie where, after you forget about it, you get the chance to re-watch it and realize once more how great i... Leer el resto

Tough Cops of NYC living in a town across the Hudson River in Jersey…

…where the half-deaf Sheriff (Sylvester Stallone) is basically a nice-guy tool of their arrogant leader (Harvey Keitel). When the angry cops engage in corruption concerning a cover-up, it attracts the attention of an Internal Affairs investigator (Robert De Niro), who tries to enlist the help of the Sheriff. Ray Liotta and Robert Patrick are also on hand.

“Cop Land” (1997) is a crime drama with an ensemble cast, the second film of writer/director James Mangold. There are a lot of characters and so it’s wise to u... Leer el resto
