The Cop

The Cop

Judge...Jury...and Executioner!

197095 min6.3 / 10

A gritty 1970s crime thriller about a burned-out cop who abandons institutional restraint to wage violent revenge against drug dealers, caught between bureaucratic pressure and moral compromise.

A crackdown on drugs leads a burned out cop to take the law into his own hands and seek revenge against villainous drug dealers. Word comes down from above that the United States feels French authorities have been lax on their arrests of the dealers. A violent action feature finds the harried inspector battling his colleagues as much as the criminal element targeted for extermination.
