I almost didn’t watch this movie because I’m not much of a fan of police movies but in the end I’m glad I did.

Complices starts with the death of Vince, a young guy from a poor family who was making a living in a high risk profession. We follow his story in flashback, as the police try to piece together his movements and find his killer.

Vince meets a girl (of course) which complicates his work life (of course) but they stick together and make plans to run away and start a new life. Of course nothing every works out as planned and it all turns to crap.

While that’s going on, you have the unusual relationship between the two single, 50 something, police officers on the case. Unfortunately their characters weren’t developed enough and we really didn’t get to know them. There was also the introduction of the male cop’s cheating brother which didn’t seem to serve any purpose.

Not a great movie but definitely worth watching.
