Street Kings/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • It's hard to pinpoint a single Crowning Moment of Awesome, given the fact that it was written by action junkie James Ellroy, but Keanu Reeves' opening obliteration of Korean kidnappers and rapists, while mildly drunk on vodka, with a shotgun wound for the last half, was pretty damn cool.
  • And then later, Keanu takes out Common by rushing him with a fridge, leaping over and blowing his brains out.
  • Even Forest Whitaker gets one at the end, nearly kicking the arse of Keanu in a calm fashion, then his later monologue justifying his corruption.
