Reptile – 3/5
A pretty generic cop movie except for a few key participants who were making the most of it. Benicio's carries the quiet energy of his performance from Sicario, and the sound guys were having fun creating tension where there wasn't any. It's the first performance from Benicio where I felt like, behind his Michael Madsen eyes, he could realistically play decency. Where it most succeeds is feeling like 'this is what it feels like to turn against your friends,' and it falls apart because, as these movies always do, they settle for gunfights.
