Synopsis
|
 In
the course of one chaotic week, the lives of three conflicted
New York City police officers are dramatically transformed
by their involvement in a massive drug operation in Brooklyn's
Finest, a new crime drama from director Antoine Fuqua. Burned
out veteran Eddie Dugan (Richard Gere) is just one week
away from his pension and a fishing cabin in Connecticut.
Narcotics officer Sal Procida (Ethan Hawke) has discovered
there's no line he won't cross to provide a better life
for his long-suffering wife and seven children. And Clarence
"Tango" Butler (Don Cheadle) has been undercover
so long his loyalties have started to shift from his fellow
police officers to his prison buddy Caz (Wesley Snipes),
one of Brooklyn's most infamous drug dealers. With personal
and work pressures bearing down on them, each man faces
daily tests of judgment and honor in one of the world's
most difficult jobs.
When NYPD's Operation Clean Up targets the notoriously
drug-ridden BK housing project, all three officers find
themselves swept away by the violence and corruption of
Brooklyn's gritty 65th Precinct and its most treacherous
criminals. During seven fateful days, Eddie, Sal and Tango
find themselves hurtling inextricably toward the same fatal
crime scene and a shattering collision with destiny.
The film captures the volatile and deadly world of one
of New York's most dangerous precincts through the eyes
of the men and women pledged to protect and serve, as they
face the wrenching choices that make them Brooklyn's Finest.
