Set amidst the brutal L.A riots, Dark Blue tells the gritty story of crime and corruption within the Los Angeles Police Department. Kurt Russell stars as Sgt. Eldon Perry, a committed but crooked cop who will stop at nothing to rid the streets of crime. But when the old-blooded shootings and illegal assignments get too much for his young rookie partner, their behaviour starts to attract unwanted attention from the Deputy Chief (Ving Rhames), a man determined to clean up the system from within. Now with the cops turning on each other, the heat is really getting turned up.
