A complete mess, this drama is packed with sophomoric political ideas, unfocused storylines and inane dialogue.

the screenplay, filled with hackneyed implausibilities and trite characterization, constantly lets everyone down

It is predictable procedural fodder - you can see the "twists" coming a mile away - but done with enough conviction to paper over the plot holes and cliches.

The essence of "Broken City" is forgettable, and that's its only strength. Once it's over, you won't be bothered to think about it ever again.

Most of the roles are so ambiguous you end up scratching your head in the final reel, and some of the loose ends are so irrelevant they seem to have ended up on the cutting-room floor.

Broken City may not be the most original film, but it's a good-looking and lightly entertaining one.

Somewhere in here there's a cogent, timely attack on the links between business and politics.

Broken City is passable, occasionally entertaining but ultimately uninspiring.

If you're in the mood for some slick trash featuring great actors slumming it without phoning it in, "Broken City" is a crackling good time.

The picture comes out swinging with both a conscience and a set of brass knuckles; it also features a Russell Crowe who doesn't, thankfully, sing. What's not to love?

It's a local-government corruption thriller that doesn't care about logic or consistency or the people watching it.
