Ridgeman, an experienced guard officer, and Lurasetti, his young, volatile partner, are all set to take on the task of robbery. However, the thieves do not cooperate and cause havoc for the two ex-cops.
The 2018 crime thriller film 'Dragged Across Concrete' has an epic and harrowing conclusion that will have you on your seat at all times. We've compiled a list of films for you that resemble the 'Dragon Across Concrete' director.
Reservoir Dogs (1992)
'Reservoir Dogs' is a classic crime film directed by Quentin Tarantino. From the start, the group selects pseudo-identities in order to focus on the job at hand, but their plans go awry when the cops arrive, killing two robbers, some officers, and civilians.
Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Chris Penn, Lawrence Tierney, and Michael Madsen star in this multi-starrer film. It isn't exactly 'Dragged Across Concrete,' in that sense, but it shares the element of a high-risk strategy that fails because the thieves are split among themselves.
The Italian Job (2003)
Mark Wahlberg, Charlize Theron, Donald Sutherland, and Jason Statham star in 'The Italian Job,' a classic crime thriller about money. His surviving partners devise a strategy to retrieve the valuables from their friend's dark alleyways, freeways, and subways in Los Angeles.
Triple 9 (2016)
'Triple 9' is a heist action film starring Casey Affleck, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Aaron Paul, Clifton Collins Jr., and Norman Reedus. The directing, which is also used in 'Dragged Across Concrete,' creates tension.
5.Bad Lieutenant (1992)
'Bad Lieutenant' is the transformational story of a corrupt NYPD officer who has drug addiction and huge debt. He exploits his power to make some dirty money from encouraging drug dealers and other criminal activities. He loses all sense of humor as he exploits teenage girls and prostitutes.
This is how men in service are drawn toward corruption and greed and make the wrong decisions, similar to the narrative of 'Dragged Across Concrete.'
Brooklyn's Finest (2009)
'Brooklyn's Finest' is a crime picture directed by Antoine Fuqua, who shares many similarities with the ones in 'Dragged Across Concrete.' It also depicts how seemingly unrelated persons interact throughout their lives, even when they are in different stages and facing different difficulties.
Afternoon on Dog Day (1975)
'Dog Day Afternoon' is a biographical crime drama based on true events that occurred at a Chase Manhattan Bank branch in Gravesend, New York, in August 1972. Al Pacino, John Cazale, and Charles Durning star in the film. They take the staff hostage and demand a safe escape.
Related to Gangs (1997)
'Gang Related,' also known as 'Criminal Intent,' is a crime thriller about two cops who accidentally murder a DEA agent. They frame a homeless man and devise an elaborate scheme in which they plant false evidence, bring fake witnesses, and do everything in their power to relieve the victims of their suffering, as shown in 'Dragged Across Concrete.'
Rampart (2011)
Dave Brown, a Los Angeles police officer stationed in the Rampart Division, is a womanizer, egotistical, racist, and violently brutal. He uses unlawful force to uphold his beliefs, including the alleged murder of a suspected serial date rapist, which earns him the nickname "Date Rape Dave." The Rampart scandal has prompted further allegations, including Dave's possible involvement in a grocery store burglary.
'Rampart' is a crime drama starring Woody Harrelson and containing all of the elements from 'Dragged Across Concrete,' from a controversial video to a bank robbery and a corrupt cop, but its plot takes you in a different direction.
