In the sun-bleached and morally barren landscape of Albuquerque, two corrupt detectives declare war on everyone who crosses their path. Alexander Skarsgård and Michael Peña star as Terry and Bob, partners who operate with a gleefully amoral code, shaking down criminals for personal profit while barely clinging to their badges. Their chaotic world is upended when they stumble upon a high-stakes blackmail scheme involving a suave and dangerous British playboy, played by Theo James. As they attempt to extort the extortionists, the detectives find themselves in over their heads, navigating a violent underworld populated by eccentric gangsters, a mysterious club singer Tessa Thompson, and their own increasingly frazzled lieutenant. Directed by John Michael McDonagh, this blistering action-comedy paints a darkly hilarious portrait of bad cops chasing worse criminals, where the only rule is that there are no rules and the line between justice and vengeance is hopelessly blurred.
