This is a much better headline for this situation. Make a critical movie about police, and have them claim that the movie is “too real”. They’re mad because they told the truth.
That should make their lawsuit a lock. /s
The discovery phase should be entertaining.
How many dogs do they shoot in the movie? 😱
Did anybody actually read the article?
By “too real” they mean they based it off of a real case with real officers, but then built off that case into a fictionalized narrative where two of the officers murder a superior while working with the cartels.
The officers who the characters are based on are claiming that people who see it have approached them about it, as the characters are clearly based on them, but the actual narrative (beyond the details of the initial drug case in the beginning) are all fictionalized.
This isn’t a “the police got called out for being bad” story.
I don’t mind that people haven’t read the article past the headline, I have done the same before. But commenting on an article that you have not read is stupid.
And now thanks to the Streisand Effect, I’ve heard of this movie!
