Action. Drama Based on a story line by acclaimed crime novelist James Ellroy, Oren Moverman’s second film is about a jaded cop, Dave Brown, a Vietnam vet who does “people’s dirty work” using some highly questionable methods. When he is filmed beating up a suspect, he falls into an emotional spiral aggravated by his past mistakes and his attitude to a corruption scandal he is involved in.

	Media	Author	Review
		Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly	"Rampart won't be for everyone, but it's the work of a major directorial voice. It's a thriller on fire"
		Betsy Sharkey Los Angeles Times	"Woody Harrelson has perhaps never been better than he is in the seamy, scandalous jumbled rumble of 'Rampart'"
		Kirk Honeycutt The Hollywood Reporter	"In trying to create the worst cop ever in a realistic milieu, director Oren Moveerman comes up with a creature that is neither credible nor interesting"
