After 30 years as partners in the pressure cooker environment of the NYPD, highly decorated Detectives "Turk", played by Academy Award® winner Robert De Niro (Raging Bull) and "Rooster", played by Academy Award® winner Al Pacino (Scent of a Woman) should be ready for retirement. But, before they can hang up their badges, they are called in to investigate the murder of a notorious pimp, which appears to have ties to a case they solved years before. This adrenaline fueled psychological thriller features hip-hop superstar Curtis Jackson (Get Rich or Die Tryin'), Carla Gugino (Sin City), John Leguizamo (Moulin Rouge!), Donnie Wahlberg (Saw II and III) and Brian Dennehy (Death of a Salesman ) and was directed by Jon Avnet (Red Corner) and written by Russell Gewirtz (Inside Man).
"Righteous Kill is a crime thriller starring none other than Al Pacino (The Godfather) and Robert De Niro (Taxi Driver). The film explores the irresistible chemistry between the two veterans as longtime partners investigating a series of murders that lead to suspicion on one of them. The production stands out for the tension and charisma of the stars, offering intense moments and sharp dialogues, which highlight the talent of Pacino and De Niro in roles as tough and complex police officers."
