It's difficult to review a movie that is really just an introduction to something far larger and more complex. Go to Full Review

ed m @RT80499164 Feb 22 I loved this show in the '80's. Doesn't hold up great. a little hokey. But I still love the characters. See more Matt F @RT90334609 09/28/2024 Just a great tv show that started my interest in Dennis Farina (RIP) and you can't beat the theme song 'Runaway' sung by Del Shannon (RIP). The theme which was a newer version of his song, is my favorite version. I watched this show every Friday night when I was a teenager. See more David H @RT94104551 07/31/2024 One of the best cop and mobster television shows ever made. Season 1 is the best of the 2 seasons in my opinion. Season 1, all 21 episodes, is more like a great but enjoyably long movie. Session 1 is addictive. Season 2 is too disjointed and has poor writing and episode continuity. Crime Story is ranked at the top of my list even though it was filmed in 1967 and depicts 1963 Detroit. Dennis Farina plays Detective Torrello who leads a hard hitting squad of detectives on a hunt for one of the mobs fastest rising new stars Ray Luca. Leaving Detroit he and his squad follow Luca to Las Vega now deputized as Federal Marshals. The writing is awesome. The show will have you rooting for the cops but liking the mobsters just a well.

En cuanto al guión, no es super original pero, en conjunto, disfruté cada capítulo de esta serie. See more Aaron B @RT56980081 03/12/2022 Executive produced by Michael Mann (Heat, Thief, Heist, etc.) with a strong lead in Dennis Farina and loads of great supporting and guest stars (Kevin Spacey, Pam Grier, Ving Rhames, Jon Polito, Bill Campbell, and many more), Crime Story is a great, classic detective show. Imagine The Wire set in the 1960s and filmed in the 1980s... you'll have a pretty good idea of what Crime Story is like (and I see some foreshadowing of Twin Peaks in some of the production style). See more 12/14/2019 A good ‘throw back' police TV show; cool old cars, well researched sets and period correct props. An easy show to watch. See more Read all reviews
