Decent cop drama!

I really liked this movie! Mainly because of the performances by Stephen Baldwin as Bo Dietl and Chris Penn as his partner Duke!

One Tough Cop is a decent cop drama that has enough plot to keep you entertained, although I don't know how accurate the story is, but I wouldn't mind reading the book! ***1/2 out of *****
