Featured review
Zeke Banks (Chris Rock) is a reckless undercover cop. Twelve years earlier, he had brought down a dirty cop and became an outcast within the department. His father (Samuel L. Jackson) was his supervisor at the time. Captain Angie Garza (Marisol Nichols) is his present day boss and she forces him to partner up with rookie Detective William Schenk (Max Minghella). They're assigned a strange case of a dead body in the subway.
Chris Rock has been trying to act hard in a few roles recently. Some comedians can pull that off especially as they get older. All I think is that this is an unfunny Chris and it's weird. This is his acting face and it's fake. I try to image him without his past greatness and I can't do it. As for the movie, this is a lot of Saw essentials; overly complicated kills and morality lessons. The complicated tests are getting repetitive after almost two decades of Saw movies. I actually like the self-righteous morality in this one. The reveal is fine although it's somewhat expected coming from this franchise. Quite frankly, I wonder if this would be better if Sam Jackson takes the lead role.
