A terrible movie that only works on the rare occasions when Harrelson's searing performance is allowed to shine.

[A] cop drama in the vein of Bad Lieutenant, except in this case the bad cop that is front and centre truly thinks he's doing good.

Brown is a sick man, but Harrelson makes him so interesting, so charismatic, so ... watchable, that you can't look away, even if his actions make you want to (and they will).

What keeps the movie engaging for as long as it was is the amazing performance by two-time Oscar nominee Woody Harrelson.

This isn't your average out-of-control character, and Harrelson has to work against a narrowly defined screenplay that is short on specifics.

It's a remarkably compelling film.

Sure to provoke furious reactions in those unwilling to succumb to its mood of reckless abandon. But for those who can, this feverish slice of LA noir is set to be one of the purest cinematic pleasures of 2012.

"Rampart" doesn't tell a coherent story as much as swirl the drain with Dave, as his increasingly desperate efforts to save himself simply result in a cascade of self-inflicted wounds.
August 11, 2014
A powerful portrait of a seriously damaged, both internally and externally, man.
September 14, 2012
IN case you needed it, this unsettling cop drama is further proof that Woody Harrelson is one of the most underrated actors going round.
March 09, 2012
Where's it all go? Nowhere, really, just down a dirty, disappointing hole. Harrelson deserved better.

Rampart doesn't end up having as much emotional punch to it as The Messenger did, mainly because it feels as though the idea was not thought out to completion.
