This is the kind of movie written so actors can have Big Scenes full of shouting and emotion. But the story logic falls apart the moment you look at it closely. It's hard to get involved in a story when the filmmakers shred human emotional reality so they can have big film moments. It's the kind of movie where the cops never call for backup. No one seems ever to have asked "what would a guy in this situation actually DO?"
SPOILER
For example - if I think my partner is dirty and probably homicidal - do I tell him I'm onto him when we're alone, far away from witnesses, and he's stressed and wielding a shotgun? I do not. I call for backup and stay away from him! Oy yoy yoy.
