This was for the most part one of the most realistic cop movies I’ve ever seen. I felt the most unrealistic part of this movie was towards the end, when they were running through the alleyways, and you didn’t hear sirens lighting off from every different direction of the city, letting them know their brothers were OTW.
Maybe that's wat the director was going for with them being lost in those dark alleys about to die with no sign of help, that's exactly wat I thought during that part it's game over and no one's coming to save the day and they didn't get fully saved did they one died and other got f**ked up pretty bad. Great film tho 👍
@@Mike-cs1ft Yeah I agree about the ending being a bit off. The best interpretation I read was that the police were paid off which gave a delay in the reaction time but that would have been very unlikely.
I love hearing the opinions of people who were actually on the force and have experience in these situations. I'm sure it's hard to go through all that, and not be overcome with things that would put others at a stop.
Before I watched this movie, I was pretty anti police. I still have grievances with a couple of things, but this movie allowed me to see what cops go through EVERY DAY. Because I watched this, I have grown a tremendous amount of respect for police officers and fire fighters. They stop the bad guys so people like me can live my life can live my life safely.
As a 23 year veteran of the Department in the movie, and now retired, the culture and the partner relationship between two P2 Dogs was spot on. A lot of Hollywood when it came to tactics though.
Agree..they had to see the ambush coming..an when they went 10 13 shots fired..officers need help..that whole division shoulda responded code 3...and any nearby agencies too..that was kinda hokey..when shit kicks off..everyone rolls
I just watched the movie and I’m not a cop but why I’m the alley when the truck was coming they just assumed it was the police and took no cover and after his partner was shot he just sat there crying I get it was his best friend but he did not pay attention to his surroundings
I've actually been on a welfare check where we couldn't smell the body until after we forced entry. The guy hadn't been seen for about 2 weeks, so we went to his residence, which happened to be a trailer. Checked all the entry points, they were locked. Looked in all the windows, nothing noticeable. So we popped the door with a halligan. As soon as the door opened, it was like a gust of foul air blasted us in the face. So hats off to whoever built that trailer for sealing it so well.
We had one like that where it was July and the body had begun to melt into the floor. Nobody smelled anything because the kitchen window was open. Once I opened the door the smell hit me and I instantly knew.
The squad room scene is so realistic, I love watching the patrol guys troll the Sgt and Lt. I just sit back and laugh because none of it pertains to me as an Arson/Explosion Investigator.
I asked my dad (who was lapd for 26 years) about the cops taking off their badges to catch a fade. He told me shit like that used to happen a lot prior to the 90’s. Now not so much. But overall it was a pretty realistic movie. Especially in the end, even tho they didn’t put sirens until backup was practically in the alley, I think that was on purpose to show especially in a big city like LA, back up isn’t around the corner every time. A lot can happen in 5-10 minutes
Former U.S. Army Infantry and I fought in Afghanistan. Its true that the cops in the movie were definitely outgunned, but under fire its understandable that they used what they had and returned fire in that situation even if it is just their service pistols.
The dude in the middle is 110% a cop that pulls you over for 5mph over the limit and shows up to court to testify on the ticket, the guy on the right is totally the cop Who is all buddy buddy And just like hey man I’mma pat you down real quick make sure you don’t have any bazookas grenade launchers nuclear bombs then takes you in for a nickel bag in your coin pocket from last week you forgot about and cowboy cerone is gets you for open alcohol, but lets you go on a verbal , takes your shit and drinks it on shift
After checking out some of the scenes for this movie, TH-cam made a suggestion to watch your channel's review. Solid stuff. Also wanted to say I appreciate what you guys do for a living in real life, stay safe, stay healthy.
EOW is one of the best/most realistic (for cops stuff) cop movies made, IMO. I can't believe you guys didn't show the scene where they talked to the gangster at his house and driver ofc. had his pistol pointed at him under the window sill!!! That was TOTALLY realistic!! When I was SSD (in mid-late 90's) in D-6 we always had our gun along-side our leg on T-Stops, but only at night. By the time I went to Vallejo in mid-2000's, they didn't even do it there, then. Time and geography changes things... Be safe, boys!
@@shotsfiredpodcast50 I thought that when I first saw it, and then thought about it, and thought he had it out already so he could raise it above the panel/in the window. It would have saved him a half second or so to have his gun already drawn. With known gangbangers, and it being the dude he already fought, I probably would have drawn my weapon as well just in case it's retribution, not information. I don't think it was a mistake, just because they have it marked as a ballistic panel in the movie.
There is a real video where the cop takes his badge off and boxes a guy in the back yard and tells him he won't be arrested. The cop beat the piss out if him and when his partner tried to cuff him, he told his partner to stop, he's good, leave him be.
I absolutely loved End of Watch, even accounting for the unrealistic bits. It definitely got my nostalgia itch scratched. The parts I loved the most, and found to be the most realistic, were the internal "cop stuff" - and even though every incident got a bit o' the Hollywood treatment, someone with a lot of attention to detail got a lot of things right. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Thanks for the breakdown, I definitely have an issue with the notion of basically inventing PC for a traffic stop, however. It's a bit unnerving to hear officers freely admit that, but thanks for what you do.
What he meant was, knowing there is a violation, just not know the code. Which can be looked at later. There’s thousands of codes, can’t remember them all. But definitely not stopping people and figuring out a violation later haha. Thanks for checking it out and the support Daniel!
24:42 was watching some cops from Texas review this stop scene, interesting how different training and experience differs in how Cops talk about scenes. The cops from Texas (OnlyCops if you want to find their video) were debating if the gun being out of the holster would A, Count as a use of force. And B, Would make sense from a safety standpoint. By the end of their short debate they both agreed that in areas where it's known for gang members, cartels, etc. to be armed it makes sense for Brian to remove his gun in case a gun is pulled on them, and because at least in their area (Not Newton in Los Angeles, Texas) for the gun to be considered a use of force it has to be knowingly out and seen by the suspect or subject of the use of force.
Each department has different policies on whether or not your gun out is considered a use of force. As far as having it out while contacting someone in a vehicle, studies have showed that you can get your gun out of your holster and up on target faster then if you had it out holding it down pointed at the ground. If you want to have your cover officer hold lethal in a concealed spot while you’re the contact, that’s always a tactic you can use, but that takes two people. We have seen Only Cops, seems like they make good content as well.
I’m no expert, but I have watched thousands of hours of bodycam footage from different areas. In most of them, taking your gun out of your holster for something like that is what is done on a Felony Stop.
The pull over scene - I was actually taught this (gun out of holster) approaching a car by an RTO in POST - Then Academy LT. said, "What the Hell is that?" 😅
Yeoo me and my friends watching this film before and after We became cops, man…. For real… that movie hit all of us… damn near hurt me… it’s a good film, but man… I almost cried at the end. But for real even in a city like NYC, if you get lost or separated, or you can’t tell where you are and radio that to your ppl, you can actually be in a part of a neighborhood where the sirens will go right past the building and back alleys separating you from them… that’s why that part is VERY REAL TO ME…. Cuz many NYPD Stories, even today, be like that, just taking place in a Project Housing complex or semi-suburban neighborhood in the hood
Good breakdown of the movie. How about reacting to the movie Training Day. I would like to hear your input into this classic. Keep up the good work guy’s. Cheers 🍻
Great show! Yes, back in the day cops would take badge off and kick the $hit out of someone. You haven't had your a$$ kicked until you had a cop kick your a$$. haha
These foos clearly aren’t from the hood 😂😂😂 cops in the neighborhoods use to pull up to cars like that. Gun in the side, real shit in that scene when they pulled up to the truck
I'm a volunteer firefighter and I've been on calls where a DOA was invioved and the smell can actually be noticed 3 houses down and its a smell you'll never forget and it's a unique smell to my first one we where rolling up my Cpt said we have a ripe one
Great channel guys. You've probably all seen it, but maybe review the movie Heat. Not exactly beat cop stuff, but it'd be cool to see your take on investigations, tactics, home life etc. etc. Thanks for doing these, I listen to them at work, really helps me stay focused. Training Day American Gangster Hell or High Water Inside Man L.A. Confidential Manhunter Cop Land Also good ones
Not a cop, but I’m with them way more frequently than most. This whole analysis is gold. The vicks thing, I’ve seen people do it, but oddly, in a larger city…. After just a few months of work…. You just kinda get used to decomp and it doesn’t really hit that hard any more.
@@shotsfiredpodcast50 my partner of five years always had to eat something spicy after a bad decomp. Said it “reset” her nose. I don’t know if it works, but now after every hot, summer DOA, I find myself ordering wings…. We’re all sick. Every Damned One of us! Love the channel, btw.
17:30 100% !!!!! Every dang time I go to a job and there’s a dude acting asleep sh** is about to go sideways and there’s going to be a fight! I just know it. It 100% never be fails!
Only thing I found wrong with this was that y'all didn't cheers the beers in the beginning. You can't open a beer next to someone and just start drinking without giving them a respectful cheers
I feel that all the creative liberties they took during the "unrealistic" tactics were definitely Hollywood magic but also a reflection of the rebellious and relatable main characters. The other cops in the movie acted more "by the book" which is what these real officer reviewers are alluding to. So in that sense, the movie is nearly 100% accurate.
It sucks how this movie all of a sudden became true story when 2 cops got ambushed in LA exactly like what happened in this movie I remember seeing that news
I once had to kick a door in for a welfare check and didnt realise that they had put an internal cardboard type door on the outside of the house( I did check to see if it was open) but my boot went right through the hole I caused, I fell and got hung up… fortunately it was the back door and only my partner saw but she pissed herself laughing…
You guys seem like some cool ass cops,that get people. I live in Sacramento which I heard is local for you in the intro, so hope my next pull over is one of y’all lol 😂 …stay safe out there.
Officers are most vulnerable strapped in their car. Don't be the guy that ends up getting caught sitting in his car when the bad guy opens up with a rifle
@@shotsfiredpodcast50 we lost a deputy last year in Houston under that scenario.The guy filed to Mexico before being extradited back. The Marshal service used the slain deputy's cuffs and returned him to Houston. This was a pretty big deal. DPS, FBI and all Texas departments went looking for this suspect.. The deputy was just one of those guys that everybody likes. He even got compliments from people he ended up arresting.
i dont think i saw it in the clip. unless i missed it. but i had a question were you guys stand on the scene. its the scene where both cops drive up to the gang member that mike earlier had a fight with. as the gang member is talking with the two cops in the car, mike has his weapon out pointed at the gang member hidden. i understand its for protection. but can cops really do that in real life? cause i thought weapons are only to be drawn out when felt threatened. which in this case they drove up to the gang member and all they were doing were talking about word on the streets
That would of been a good scene! Yes that happens, however most police cars have ballistic panels in the door. And the funny thing about that scene was, it says on his door panel “ballistic panel” 😂. So that was pretty pointless.
Its this one movie with Cuba Gooding Jr " You Guys Should Check Out " ! Its a good griddy cop film similar to this one but also very different my problem is i cant remember the name of it 😂😂. I gotta try to find i think it was barder control or something like That.
Decomp travels so damn far that I hate it on the Ambulance. I know a medic that the one time he had to pick up a DB for the coroner and after dropping it off he went and bought new boots and EMS pants. He got back to the office and told the supervisor he needed a new uniform shirt too. His reasoning was that he didn't want to have anything left that could possibly have any decomp on it.
Evil knew that these 2 cops were "cowboys" and they would go in foot pursuit of a Code 37 vehicle suspect. The opening shooting happens in Southeast Division (Watts) and they are reassigned later as partners to Newton Division (South Central LA). Most officers that work there are highly motivated and proactive cops. Especially the young cops that are trying to prove themselves to the veterans of the division. I used to tell guys if you go anywhere in the world and say 4 letters, everyone knows what you are talking about. In Los Angeles, if you tell another cop that you work SOE, 77th or Newton, they know what you are talking about. A lot of this movie deals with Los Angeles County issues like Pena's character being called out by the gangster (who is also in the movie "Training Day"). It's not a universal cop story, it's an LA story. KMA 367...
TH-cam’s new guidelines blocks a lot of those shooting breakdowns now. We will come up with a way to do it and not get censored. We did one and it got censored.
@@shotsfiredpodcast50 channels like donut operator definitely have figured it out, I believe it’s informing the “Audience” that it’s for educational purposes is what TH-cam is looking for, non the less I love the content and honestly can’t get enough of it. I wish I found this channel when I was working in the jail, but I’ll definitely be listening when I can on the streets!!!

@@blacksunday4231 we did southland recently. Look on our videos.
The last part I am not chasing. Zero clue what to expect, it's a no go.
Great review and commentary!
Bald tires- 😂
I wanna see the rest of the conversation about the steak out 😅😅😅😅
Keep up with the reactions guys , nice video. Greetings from Albania
Thank you dude! We appreciate your support 🍻👊
Thats rad, thanks for tuning in.
Im a Marine and former detention officer. Boredom is a killer of moral. We did stupid things in the q...te times.
It sucks how this movie all of a sudden became true story when 2 cops got ambushed in LA exactly like what happened in this movie I remember seeing that news
Great Review!! IDK if you guys like stouts but you need to try Dragons Milk Stout. Keep up the great work and stay safe!
We’ll have to try it out. Thanks Mando
This film was filmed in 2012. There was little or even no de-escalation, no BWCs, ect...
Vics is a no go. It opens your air way even more through your nose and you smell it even over the vics smell.
You are absolutely right. Back in the day, we did take off our badge and gun and took care of business.
were they cops in LA? because there are tons of things only LA cops would understand.
I once had to kick a door in for a welfare check and didnt realise that they had put an internal cardboard type door on the outside of the house( I did check to see if it was open) but my boot went right through the hole I caused, I fell and got hung up… fortunately it was the back door and only my partner saw but she pissed herself laughing…
😂😂 we have all been there. Thanks for sharing
The best cop movie of all time -- Hot Fuzz
Ha! That is a classic.
Ever fire two guns at once whilst jumping through the air?
Ever fire your gun into the air whilst yelling "AAARRRGGH?"
You guys seem like some cool ass cops,that get people. I live in Sacramento which I heard is local for you in the intro, so hope my next pull over is one of y’all lol 😂 …stay safe out there.
Thank you Deric. We appreciate your support 👊🏼
I grew up in south sac..47th ave..went to burbank..worked ssd..in south sac..saw folks in jail I went to hi school with..awkward..lol
Mad props
Earthquake is the best yet worst alcoholic beverage to drink in the comfort of your own home.
🍻thank you. Might have to try that.
Good point classic cat Monte Carlo
Range tatcicool clearing forward in the first scene lol
Haha right? 😂
I did a ride along with a City agency in LA. And the cop did stops lat at night with his gun drawn multiple times
Officers are most vulnerable strapped in their car. Don't be the guy that ends up getting caught sitting in his car when the bad guy opens up with a rifle
Good input Jeff 🙌🏼
@@shotsfiredpodcast50 we lost a deputy last year in Houston under that scenario.The guy filed to Mexico before being extradited back. The Marshal service used the slain deputy's cuffs and returned him to Houston. This was a pretty big deal. DPS, FBI and all Texas departments went looking for this suspect.. The deputy was just one of those guys that everybody likes. He even got compliments from people he ended up arresting.
As a civilian, my first instinct was also "hey, that's a Monte Carlo"
i dont think i saw it in the clip. unless i missed it.
but i had a question were you guys stand on the scene.
its the scene where both cops drive up to the gang member that mike earlier had a fight with. as the gang member is talking with the two cops in the car, mike has his weapon out pointed at the gang member hidden.
i understand its for protection. but can cops really do that in real life?
cause i thought weapons are only to be drawn out when felt threatened. which in this case they drove up to the gang member and all they were doing were talking about word on the streets
That would of been a good scene! Yes that happens, however most police cars have ballistic panels in the door. And the funny thing about that scene was, it says on his door panel “ballistic panel” 😂. So that was pretty pointless.
Its this one movie with Cuba Gooding Jr " You Guys Should Check Out " ! Its a good griddy cop film similar to this one but also very different my problem is i cant remember the name of it 😂😂. I gotta try to find i think it was barder control or something like That.
Decomp travels so damn far that I hate it on the Ambulance. I know a medic that the one time he had to pick up a DB for the coroner and after dropping it off he went and bought new boots and EMS pants. He got back to the office and told the supervisor he needed a new uniform shirt too. His reasoning was that he didn't want to have anything left that could possibly have any decomp on it.
🤮🤮
You guys should do the movie colors
We did. Here is the link th-cam.com/video/DpXKL3mAMmw/w-d-xo.html
The 24:27 is a waite for back up moment.
Evil knew that these 2 cops were "cowboys" and they would go in foot pursuit of a Code 37 vehicle suspect. The opening shooting happens in Southeast Division (Watts) and they are reassigned later as partners to Newton Division (South Central LA). Most officers that work there are highly motivated and proactive cops. Especially the young cops that are trying to prove themselves to the veterans of the division. I used to tell guys if you go anywhere in the world and say 4 letters, everyone knows what you are talking about. In Los Angeles, if you tell another cop that you work SOE, 77th or Newton, they know what you are talking about. A lot of this movie deals with Los Angeles County issues like Pena's character being called out by the gangster (who is also in the movie "Training Day"). It's not a universal cop story, it's an LA story. KMA 367...
Exactly this is officer Luis Arrue lol
vicks!? really......20 years in, 10+ as a Detective, back on the road as a Sgt and we clown on the guys who use vicks LOL great channel and podcast!!
Thank you! And welcome to the Sergeant life.
Great review.
Thank you
Yall should do colors
We did. Here is the link th-cam.com/video/DpXKL3mAMmw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bHv91jNh14o-nqlN
Did you guys do a GTA5 videogame realism review? Or just movies
No, but that would be funny.
I would like to see them react to the show Southland, I think that's the most realistic cop show I've ever seen
We did one.
@@shotsfiredpodcast50 cool, I'll search for the video✌🏼
@@albertobetto522 th-cam.com/video/jDWOUHW9mE8/w-d-xo.html
Definitely would love to see actual dash cam or shooting break downs. Just make sure to cover up the blood so the TH-cam weinie don’t get ya😂
Another good idea! Thanks for the input.
TH-cam’s new guidelines blocks a lot of those shooting breakdowns now. We will come up with a way to do it and not get censored. We did one and it got censored.
@@shotsfiredpodcast50 channels like donut operator definitely have figured it out, I believe it’s informing the “Audience” that it’s for educational purposes is what TH-cam is looking for, non the less I love the content and honestly can’t get enough of it. I wish I found this channel when I was working in the jail, but I’ll definitely be listening when I can on the streets!!!
