The efficient LAPD Police Officers Brian Taylor and Mike Zavala are partners and best friends. Mike is married with Gabby, who is pregnant, and Brian is having a serious love affair with Janet. Brian has the intention of making a movie and is using a handy cam to film his daily work with his partner, under the protest of his colleague Van Hauser. After killing a powerful gangster in self-defense, they are transferred by Sarge to South Central Los Angeles where there is a war between black and Mexican gangs. When Mike and Brian arrest a gangster and find a great load of drugs and people involved in human-trafficking, they are sentenced to death by the Cartel and hunted down by a Mexican gang. What will happen to them?
Shot documentary-style, this film follows the daily grind of two young police officers in LA who are partners and friends, and what happens when they meet criminal forces greater than themselves.
The trailer to the film was very promising: one could not tell from those couple of minutes as to what was going to happen in the film, or what the film is about. It all looked just tense, bloody and sweaty ode to policemen – something to look forward to. The problem is that even after watching the movie I cannot tell what the film is about, or why on earth it appeared in the way it did.

The whole movie is done in the mockumentary style: at the very start the main character flashes the camera that he has, and then most of the film the action is shown "as seen" by him – all the talk, all the jokes. It was supposed to give the audience the intimacy and the from-the-first-hand feeling of actually sitting in the police car with the cops or joining them in their operations. Those casual cameras are everywhere: one in the hand of Brian Taylor, two on their uniform, couple in the car – the life of those fictitious cops has been carefully documented.

As if that was not enough, the storyline was brushed up to give us maximum realism. There are many little stories, little jokes, little monologues and conversations, to resemble the real life, with all its complexity and simplicity. The characters come and go and return, and all we have is this couple of cops, best friends, professionals to whom we are supposed to empathise fully come the end of the film. Well, at least that was the plan of the authors.

Now about how it actually feels. I have never been a big fan of the "shaky" camera, which, for example, annoyed no end in Hunger Games, but here is the absolute level of atrocity aimed at the inner ear. Because the camera is in the hands of the cop, authors thought it would be great to force him to shake it as much as he can. By the end of the film I was so seasick that the camera rotating 360 degrees every other minute was chasing me in nightmares. The scenes of Los Angeles from the helicopter felt like oasis – several seconds to have a rest watching steady picture. I presume that this shaky camera was done on purpose, to give us extra feeling of involvement – but in real life I never shake my head ecstatically, how can I feel that way? Then the storyline. Authors probably thought that it was good idea not to have set storyline written in the literature style – instead they have a collection of anecdotes about the life of the two cops. That was probably done, again, for further involvement and all of that, but as the result the movie became absolutely unwatchable in terms of the storytelling. The film picks up the storyline, then drops it, then picks the other one, then drops it and returns to the first one, everything without sense of direction or general understanding of purpose. Aiming to show us the life, authors missed enormously. The story of our lives, I believe, is always beautiful in its consistency, in its fluency. There is no need to invent the wheel to show interesting lives – all you need to do is to show them as they are.

These shortcomings are shameful for two reasons. First is that a very promising film style, mockumentary, has been compromised badly by this movie. Why to choose it if in the end you get mumbling mess stuck somewhere in between the documentary and fictitious movies? End of Watch is the mock part of "mockumentary", and this is shameful.

Secondly, and the reason why I wrote so much about the movie, is that the film about cops is very long overdue. The guardians of law and order (not detectives, but cops) deserve a proper anthem made on celluloid tape, something that will highlight them, and not bury their day-to-day patriotic heroism behind some trendy inventions. This movie was supposed to be about cops, but it is not about them. They deserve Apollo 13 as the professional movie, not the nausea-inducing inconsistent mock of the documentary.

m-picturegoer.blogspot.com Yet another LAPD cop drama - or is it?

Shot in The Shield type wobbly camera mode for some of the movie, it captures the raw essence of that TV classic in the most part.

I was drawn to this movie by the press hype, and most recently the cable TV promo hype of Jake and his partner theorising about Jake being lined up with a blind date courtesy of his Hispanic partner.

Watching the movie - I was hooked from the get-go. The cops appeared as near to real-life as I'd imagine things get in LA and the baddies were as bad as Hollywood will depict them?! In fact, the female 'baddie' was portrayed as being nastier than the Mr Evil (the baddest and meanest of the 'bad' male characters), intentionally cast so as to let us know that females can be meaner and nastier than males in some 'gang' instances - no doubt?

A particularly violent climax does leave you wondering how anybody can survive the unloading of so many rounds from high capacity magazines?

Tarrantino will come along with his exploding blood bags and take us to the next level of realism I've no doubt, if he can sell himself on the concept of yet another LA cop drama! It almost becomes comical to count the number of "who's holding the camera now?" reverse shots that the filmmaker haphazardly inserts to propel the story forward. Such visual ineptitude, like much else in this tediously cocky enterprise, is downright criminal.
The weapon used against the two main characters is a battlefield weapon, the AK-47 designed by Russian gunsmith Mikhail Kalashnikov. The gas-operated, rotating bolt, weapon fires a 7.62x39mm round at about 715 meters per second at an effective range of more than 320 meters. The penetrating power can be stopped by National Institute of Justice (NIJ)-compliant level III body armor. The angle of the shot is critical. If the shot was straight on, in line with the 4 pieces of ballistic material, the round would not have penetrated through each piece and the two officers, and exited. Due to the nature of concealable body armor however, we can not be sure what level the two officers were wearing; if they were wearing their front and back panels or if they had a trauma plate which can provide additional protection against "special threats". Most likely the armor worn by Zavala and Taylor was level II, IIA or IIIA, all soft body armor. While it is possible NIJ level IIIA body armor could stop a ricochet, it is highly unlikely it would stop the direct impact of a 7.62x39mm round from such a relatively close distance without a special threats trauma plate. Unfortunately the movie does not address where the other vehicles were at the time the two main characters were in their fire-fight with the gang members. Police officers patrol different RDs (reporting districts) which means that the other officers could be miles away from them on different radio calls or just driving around in a different part of the city. The amount of time it took for the backup units to get to them from the time they called was about right, a radio broadcast from dispatch regarding officers pinned down in a shooting would cause a fair amount of chaos over the radio as everyone would be scrambling to get details such as location, suspect description, officer status, etc. In the worst case scenario, the other members of the street gang may have intentionally made fake calls to 9-1-1 to report crimes in other areas of the city in order to tie up resources and single out the two main characters. Van Hauser is not just an angry dude, he's very impatient. But in this case he's a training officer, and most of the time training officers get so stressed out training young boots (rookie officers) mostly because boots make a lot of rookie mistakes and training officers look at rookie mistakes as very stupid common sense mistakes and when rookies make mistakes, it's on the training officer. But in Sook's case she was very shaky and nervous and Van Hauser looks at that as a sign of weakness and very annoying. When Zavala asked Sarge why Van Hauser is such a bitter dude and Sarge's answer is have some empathy for him. What he means is "you have to understand how stressful it is being a training officer with a very shaky nervous rookie, so cut the man some slack". But just the same it's very wrong of Van Hauser to take his anger out on his fellow officers and especially Sook, because not only is she a rookie but she's also his partner which is his life line.
