In the 'hood, all that matters are your colors...Academy Awardr Winners Robert Duvall (Tender Mercies) and Sean Penn (Milk, Mystic River) sink their teeth into "grimy, hard-edged, heart-thumping action" (Movieline) in a film that "captures the vivid mark that gang life has left upon Los Angeles" (The New York Times). Bob Hodges (Duvall) is a seasoned street cop who has learned a lot from long experience while his new, young partner, Danny McGavin (Penn), has learned nothing - yet knows it all. Forced to work together in the L.A.P.D.'s renowned C.R.A.S.H. anti-gang unit, they set out to investigate a brutal gang murder. Hated and hunted by both sides, the cops soon find themselves trapped in the middle of a turf war. With nowhere to turn, they are ambushed, double-crossed and shot at in a take-no-prisoners street battle. As the violence escalates, these two diametrically opposed men must come to terms with one important fact - to stay alive they must come together!
