A matter of taste maybe given the low ratings, but I've seen the first 2 of the 3 Detective Knight movies, and don't think they're nearly as bad as Bruce has put his name to in recent years. Police films of very average level, which certainly, but if you want to take into account that the budget will not have been that high (there are no really spectacular action scenes) and really good actors for this kind of project are difficult to charter, it is best to do. In Redemption, for example, the unknown Johansson plays a nicely exaggerated villain role and the makers, just like before with Rogue, have been so smart to also give the secondary characters a lot of screen time. As a result, Knight/Willis actually becomes a supporting actor in his own films, but given the knowledge that Bruce can no longer carry a film on his own, a good, responsible choice. Not a film to see a second time later, but within its own limitations no punishment to watch once. And of course we give Bruce his own trilogy wholeheartedly, don't we?

Sequel to Detective Knight: Rogue finds James Knight [Bruce Willis] behind bars as a masked gang pull off a series of robberies in the run-up to Christmas in which gang leader Mercer [Corey Large] preaches about the horrors of capitalism. The former soldier and former Prison Chaplain even manages to take over the prison and free all the inmates so they can join him. The only one left behind is James Knight. Partly for that reason, he is the man to roll up Mercer and his gang. Drake and Large wrote the screenplay, which is not without merit, but Large misses the mark with his grotesque playing and the socially critical message loses its power. It doesn't help that Willis again makes a completely disinterested impression. Continued: Detective Knight: Independence.
