Robert
De
Niro
('Raging
Bull')
and
Al
Pacino
('Scent
of a
Woman')
star
as a
pair
of
veteran
New
York
City
police
detectives
on
the
trail
of a
vigilante
serial
killer
in
the
adrenaline
fueled
psychological
thriller
'Righteous
Kill,'
directed
by
Jon
Avnet
('Red
Corner,'
'Fried
Green
Tomatoes')
and
written
by
Russell
Gewirtz
('Inside
Man').
The
cast
also
features
hip-hop
superstar
Curtis
Jackson
('Get
Rich
or
Die
Trying').
After
30
years
as
partners
in
the
pressure
cooker
environment
of
the
NYPD,
highly
decorated
Detectives
David
Fisk
and
Thomas
Cowan
should
be
ready
for
retirement,
but
aren't.
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.
Like
the
original
murder,
the
victim
is a
suspected
criminal
whose
body
is
found
accompanied
by a
four
line
poem
justifying
the
killing.
When
additional
crimes
take
place,
it
becomes
clear
the
detectives
are
looking
for
a
serial
killer,
one
who
targets
criminals
that
have
fallen
through
the
cracks
of
the
judicial
system.
His
mission
is
to
do
what
the
cops
can't
do
on
their
own--take
the
culprits
off
the
streets
for
good.
The
similarities
between
the
recent
killings
and
their
earlier
case
raise
a
nagging
question:
Did
they
put
the
wrong
man
behind
bars? -
