Have any of you watched it? I have, saw it when it came out in theaters, accompanied my son and two fellow Phoenix PD officers. These gents have and do today work the worst of Phoenix where the gangs, demographics, illegal drug and human smuggling trade are VERY close to the elements of this movie, including the geographic slang. Their work and experience seemed to be too close for comfort so the general agreement was that close family members really shouldn't see it and so I did my part, Mrs. BC2 wasn't going back with me for a viewing.
Fast forward many months and the movie is now available for rent or purchase and mama now wants to see it, understanding the risks, but explaining this is likely the closest view she'll have to what our boy does at work. The 'boy/son/officer' eventually gave in to his own young wife (she hated it), so I'm going in myself....we're givers in our bloodline apparently.
Have you seen the movie or plan to? Hard movie to watch and I would offer caution about the audience, it's a tough movie to watch, but does show what is WAY too close to reality here in the American southwest.
