We showed you the poster and original HD trailer awhile ago, but now comes a new, red band edition.

Am I excited about this film? I’m really not, but I also haven’t heard much about it yet, no buzz or excited reviews, so it’s hard to know if it’s going to be worth checking out.

But if you love hard-core, action/crime movies, this looks like it will be right up your alley. The red band trailer below is NSFW, as there is F-word usage and lots of blood and gunshots. But it should give you a good idea of what to expect if you do see this movie.

Street Kings Poster
Street Kings stars Keanu Reeves, Forrest Whitaker, Hugh Laurie, Chris Evans, and Common. Keanu Reeves plays Tom Ludlow, a veteran LAPD Vice Detective. Ludlow sets out on a quest to discover the killers of his former partner, Detective Terrance Washington (Terry Crews). Academy Award winner Forest Whitaker plays Captain Wander, Ludlow’s supervisor, whose duties include keeping him within the confines of the law and out of the clutches of Internal Affairs Captain Biggs (Hugh Laurie). Ludlow teams up with a young Robbery Homicide Detective (Chris Evans) to track Washington’s killers through the diverse communities of Los Angeles. Their determination pays off when the two Detectives track down Washington’s murderers and confront them in an attempt to bring them to justice.
