Cop Land (1997)
Small-town Sheriff discovers corruption in his little cop-filled town.
I love Stallone going against type as schlubby, non-confrontational Sheriff Freddy. He spends his days ignoring speeders (mostly the hotshot city cops that live there), and checking out illegally dumped trash. The cops who come home from working in the big mean city treat him condescendingly like a sad sack puppy dog, which he is, really.
This is a who's who of actors, Sooo many strikingly familiar faces, which robs the film a bit, as you discover one, then the other, then another....
Ray Liotta is very good and raw as Sheriff Freddy's bug-eyed, burnt out cop friend.
It could've bitten a bit deeper, but it was just pretty ok for the most part. Just like Sheriff Freddy himself.
