About
You might enjoy this if you like hard-edged 1980s cop action with undercover twists and a touch of buddy-movie attitude, especially if The Protector or Exit Wounds works for you; Not for you if you want subtle drama or realism.
Pros: undercover crime setup; brisk action energy; tough lead presence | Cons: dated 1980s style; familiar drug-war plot; broad buddy-movie tone
