  A fairly decent film but a little contrived at times. Oh, and the word ?Color? should have a U in it!! Expected more from Hopper though!

• Lenny M

  
  Good cop film, nothing special about the film if you watch it now, back then it had more of an impact. Good acting and screenplay.

• Lady D

  
  A film with issues, still very relevant today, yet dated by the music and clothing. I particularly like the relationship between Penn and Duval, a great rookie film.

• Al S

  
  A explosive, shocking, unsettling and heart-pounding drama. Thrilling, frequently exciting and all the way exhilerating. Gritty and realistic. Robert Duvall and Sean Penn are excellent. Their performances are truly brilliant and satisfying.

  Oldshool...This is what started that Gangster Gangster ^_^

• xGary X

  
  Predating the rash of hip hop inspired gangster films of the early 90s, this gritty story about two cops policing the streets of LA's gang neighbourhoods is intelligent, well written and well acted with a nicely balanced non-judgmental viewpoint.

• Dean M

  
  Brave, but ultimately rather disappointing story of mismatched cop Robert Duvall and Sean Penn assigned to gang duty in L.A. Although it has its moments, it's not so different from every other movie of its kind, unless you count the extraordinary amount of swearing.

  I dare Robert Duvall to not play the role of a guy who understands minoritys and crazy people.

• John B

  
  An okay "cop in the hood" movie that is missing more than just the "u" in its title. Yes, we all know Duvall and Penn are great but would we really consider this film to be a part of their personal canon?

• Danny R

  
  A compelling and vivid look into the hard-core gang life of East Los Angeles and the efforts of the L.A.P.D and the anti-gang police unit known as C.R.A.S.H in trying to keep the gang violence under control. A seasoned street cop played brilliantly by Robert Duvall and his young… More
  A compelling and vivid look into the hard-core gang life of East Los Angeles and the efforts of the L.A.P.D and the anti-gang police unit known as C.R.A.S.H in trying to keep the gang violence under control. A seasoned street cop played brilliantly by Robert Duvall and his young hot-head rookie partner Sean Penn in a superb performance are forced to work together with anti-gang unit to stop a upcoming turf war between to rival gangs. A gritty powerful film directed very skillfully by Dennis Hopper with a outstanding supporting cast that includes Don Cheadle, Maria Conchita Alonso, Damond Wayans and Tony Todd. Recommened.

  A good cop film with, as expected, great performances.

• Stephen E

  
  As good of an actor as Dennis Hopper is, his talent as a director is questionable. "Colors" should have been grittier and shorter, which would have made it a much more involving and realistic experience, but it isn't. Hopper's direction is uneven and unfocused,… More
  As good of an actor as Dennis Hopper is, his talent as a director is questionable. "Colors" should have been grittier and shorter, which would have made it a much more involving and realistic experience, but it isn't. Hopper's direction is uneven and unfocused, making the film feel strangely unconvincing, and just when things start to get good, there's only five minutes left. "Colors" isn't a bad film, but it could have been a great film under different direction. It's just mediocre.
