This one involves two detectives, played by Vince Vaughn and Mel Gibson, who get suspended from duty after a video of them using excessive force gets on the news. Needing to provide for their families and make ends meet, they stray outside the law in an attempt to rob some drug suppliers, and things go awry.
For one thing, it’s 158 minutes long. There are parts that are definitely slow and dragging . But, if you stick with it, the last hour provides an intriguing and unpredictable long night’s journey of the soul, one that intertwines the two detectives with two low-rent thugs and suave international bank robbers.
It can occasionally be frustrating, as there are several scenes that could easily be trimmed to keep the running time down and the pace up. Some scenes also seem underlit, with some rooms lit only by lamps as if the characters had never heard of overhead lights.
While at first glance it might have looked like an old-fashioned crime story with nothing new to add, thankfully “Dragged Across Concrete” is refreshingly unpredictable, if a little indulgent.
