Righteous Kill

2008 101 min English R

“Most people respect the badge. Everybody respects the gun.”

Two veteran New York City detectives work to identify the possible connection between a recent murder and a case they believe they solved years ago; is there a serial killer on the loose, and did they perhaps put the wrong person behind bars?
