Chris Evans Talks About "Street Kings"
Chris Evans was a novice at handling guns before taking on the role of Robbery Homicide Detective Paul Diskant in "Street Kings," a gritty drama set in Los Angeles and directed by David Ayer. Evans has played a fiery superhero, a teen heartthrob, and the member of an elite crew trying to save the Sun, but had never before had to use a gun in a film role.

"Street Kings" Movie Review
If you’re not hip to what’s going to happen in the final minutes of "Street Kings by, let’s say, 15 minutes into the movie, then either you’ve missed out on every other dirty cop movie ever made or you’re so caught up in how well Keanu Reeves pulls off his role as a tough-as-nails, take no prisoners (literally) officer you’re not actually paying attention to the story.

Common Hits the Mean Streets in "Street Kings"
Common says he always intended to take on roles that were the polar opposite of his image and personality, and he does so once again in "Street Kings," the latest dramatic film from David Ayer. While it’s nearly impossible to discuss Common’s character in "Street Kings" without giving away key plot points, suffice it to say he’s not one of the good guys.
