Starts with the most formulaic and exhausted trope: the old accomplished cop on the verge of retiring dies, and his partner decides to take vengeance upon the villain responsible of his death. This one too is just as compliant to the standards & clicheys of the 80's hotcop: good heart but blamable methods. Dafoe's persona by contrast is appealing, esp. due to his (justified) artistic tendencies, a pretext for aesthetic interior settings - "Dance" by Matisse can be spotted during a fit of giggles. Later the storyline swerves off the beaten path with a couple of crushing failures for our cops, but not without good entertainment value (engaging car chase & final showdown). Good epilogue as well
