Street Kings" is a brutal and violent action film available now on Disney+ starring Keanu Reeves. Directed by Suicide Squad director David Ayer, the film offers a dark and ominous story.The plot revolves around Detective Tom Ludlow, played by Keanu Reeves, who works for the Los Angeles Police Department. Due to his uncompromising nature, he becomes the target of internal investigations after he was involved in a spectacular hostage situation. When his former partner is murdered and he himself becomes the prime suspect, Ludlow begins his own investigation, unbeknownst to his superiors, to find the real perpetrators.Keanu Reeves shows a completely different side of himself in "Street Kings". Instead of being a radiant hero, he embodies a boozy and brutal character here. David Ayer, known for his penchant for violent and unpleasant characters, once again relies on a male toxicity that shapes the characters and their surroundings. Most characters have little to no potential for identification and are rather unsympathetic.This lends Street Kings a dark dynamic that has characterized Ayer since he wrote Training Day. The film is a gritty action thriller with an FSK 18 rating, justified by the gory and violent scenes. Although the plot isn't particularly original or sophisticated and the macho demeanor can be tiresome at times, the film is recommended for fans of hardcore old-school action.Overall, Street Kings offers a violent and gritty action experience that certainly won't disappoint Keanu Reeves fans. David Ayer's cinematic signature is clearly recognizable and gives the film a raw and aggressive atmosphere. Anyone who has a preference for tough action films and is not put off by the unconventional plot and the rough characters will certainly get their money's worth.
