Top Critics Reviews

There's great pleasure in watching these two actors work. And Hopper, a great actor himself, knows what they need to thrive.

It's an exhilarating sparring match between Duvall's workmanlike fine-tuning and Penn's raw energy.

Though its story has the makings of standard stuff, and is sometimes sketchily told, nothing about 'Colors is ordinary.

fresh:
Never as eccentric as The Last Movie or Out of the Blue, Colors nevertheless makes most other cop movies look formulary by comparison.

fresh:
Colors is a solidly crafted depiction of some current big-city horrors and succeeds largely because of the Robert Duvall-Sean Penn teaming as frontline cops. They're terrific together as members of the gang crime division of the LAPD.
