Mediocre story and the film is not great in terms of execution. Still, I enjoyed myself, because there are still quite a few nice scenes in the film. However, just not enough to give this film a satisfactory rating.

2.5*

Trust me, i'm the indian out here

I wasn't too bad, but then again I'm a fan of Kiefer Sutherland. The time-tested recipe from the eighties is back: two completely different men must work together to find a bastard who stole a valuable spear. In the list of buddy movies we hadn't had cop versus Indian yet. Furthermore, a lot of violence, a long car chase and a bit of humor. Thankful role for Jami Gertz. Final number is by Bryan Adams. Good to have seen if you don't have too high expectations; Renegades otherwise does not have a high revision value.

At the time enjoyed as excellent video fodder, within the booming buddy movie genre at the time. This is helped by fine roles from Sutherland and Philips, a good villain and plenty of action. The ending is, of course, predictable. But everything has just been thought out a little better. Minuses are those moments that stretch the credibility a lot. For example, there is a jump of 10 meters high and nothing is broken. Furthermore, a gunshot wound is recovered very quickly. Nice is that Philips and Sutherland as characters are evenly matched and complement each other well. Sufficient pace makes this a very entertaining police film.
