MOVIE REVIEW
Cop Land is a police drama about a small town populated mainly by big city cops who are covering something up, and the lone sheriff who is willing to fight for justice. Sylvestor Stallone plays that sheriff in a definitely different role than he is used to; in Cop Land, he is slightly overweight, weak-minded (at least to start off), and doesn't bare his muscles once. He is the normal donut-eating sheriff, and Stallone by no means is the Rambo-type hero. Full movie review »
