Synopsis

The second film from writer/director James Mangold, the corruption drama Cop Land stars Sylvester Stallone as Freddy Heflin, the much-denigrated sheriff of tiny Garrison, NJ, a community which -- thanks to a technicality -- is populated almost entirely by members of the New York City Police Department. When young cop Murray "Superboy" Babitch (Michael Rapaport) becomes embroiled in a controversial shoot-out which leaves two black youths dead, he apparently commits suicide rather than face the wrath of an official investigation. In reality, however, he flees to safety back home in Garrison. In the wake of the controversial events, NYPD Internal Affairs lieutenant Moe Tilden (Robert De Niro) arrives in Garrison to uncover the truth, attempting to enlist Freddy to help watch the watchmen, including Superboy's uncle, veteran cop Ray Donlan (Harvey Keitel); coked-out Gary Figgis (Ray Liotta); and Joey Randone (Peter Berg), the husband of the woman (Annabella Sciorra) Freddy loved and lost. A rich, complex film about redemption, Cop Land's portrayal of Freddy's struggles to prove his worth mirrors Stallone's own return to thoughtful, character-driven drama after years of vacuous action roles. Like Freddy, he faces an uphill battle, fighting for respectability in the face of a superb cast including Janeane Garofalo, Cathy Moriarty, and Paul Calderon. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Movie Guide

Cop Land: AMG Review
Nick Sambides, Jr. , AMG

Sylvester Stallone puts his acting chops on display here and does a pretty good job. Playing a patsy New Jersey sheriff and New York cop wannabe, Stallone used the stillness and passivity that marked much of his acting in the Rambo and Rocky series (when he wasn't tearing people's heads off, that is) and put on about 40 pounds to show just how serious he was. As for the story, Cop Land plays like High Noon with a New Jersey accent: it takes way too long to reach its shoot-'em-up finish. It's a lean film, with uniformly fine performances from Robert De Niro, Harvey Keitel, Annabella Sciorra, Ray Liotta, and Michael Rapaport, among others, but ultimately it's not very interesting. ~ Nick Sambides, Jr., All Movie Guide
