Storyline

Freddy Heflin is the sheriff of a place everyone calls “Cop Land” — a small and seemingly peaceful town populated by the big city police officers he’s long admired. Yet something ugly is taking place behind the town’s peaceful facade. And when Freddy uncovers a massive, deadly conspiracy among these local residents, he is forced to take action and make a dangerous choice between protecting his idols and upholding the law.

Critics consensus

“Cop Land matches its star-studded cast with richly imagined characters while throttling the audience with carefully ratcheted suspense, although it lacks the moral complexity of classic crime thrillers.”

'Cop Land' holds up as a pretty good little thriller, a Sidney Lumet movie in a Martin Scorsese movie's clothing.

Mangold certainly knew what he was doing when he cast Keitel and De Niro.

Cop Land shares its leading man's slow-wittedness, but also his likability.

The film didn’t receive the recognition it deserved upon release, but hopefully its reputation will continue to ripen, as a rare cop movie more interested in morals than machismo.
