[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many people thought it was pretty awful from the get-go. Here's a Ta-Nehisi Coates piece about in from 2009, just 4 years after it came out. I hated it because of white savior focus. https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2009/12/worst-movie-of-the-decade/32759/[/quote] The officer leaped in to save a person, he didn't realize who she was until she freaked out. To me, cops are always waiting for a hero moment and [b]he would have saved anyone[/b] to get his name and face in the paper and a possible fast-tracked position. I think a better focus is that bad people are capable of doing good things; I just didn't see him as a hero. Just doing what he was trained to do and how it could benefit him in the long run. Matt Dillon is in the movie for a grand total of 15 minutes and I think all of that is getting ignored for the bigger picture. [/quote] [/quote]
