Editorial Review:
Product Description: An intense thriller about an all-encompassing network of corruption within a citys justice system that nobody dared challenge - until now. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 07/24/2007 Starring: Morgan Freeman Justin Timberlake Run time: 97 minutes Rating: R
Amazon.com: If Edison, the city in which Edison Force takes place, is equivalent to Batman’s Gotham City, then Batman, in this action drama, is Justin Timberlake. Pollack (Timberlake) is a naïve young news reporter who clumsily discovers, and eventually exposes, complete corruption within the F.R.A.T. division of Edison’s police department. F.R.A.T. recruits are unmarried men with a history of violence, contracted out as bounty hunters to halt rampant murder, drug dealing, and prostitution on the streets. As two of their main men, Lazerov (Dylan McDermott) and Deed (LL Cool J) kill several innocent people while on duty, Pollack begins digging for evidence to bust them. Inept, Pollack enlists help from seasoned journalists Moses Ashford (Morgan Freeman) and Lee Wallace (Kevin Spacey), who do help Pollack crack the case, but not without warning Pollack against the perils of devoting one’s life to exposing fraudulent behavior. True journalists, in Edison Force, are superheroes. Though it’s difficult not to envision Timberlake as the pop star he is, it is always a pleasure to see the handsome LL Cool J in a uniform and wielding guns. The most convincing actor in Edison Force is Kevin Spacey, whose hard-boiled acting imbues his part with a Mean Streets quality. Action-packed, this film deserves mention in the history of cop films, though in terms of style, it has nothing on great film noir. --Trinie Dalton

edison force was ok. with a bigger budget and maybe a better director this movie could have been a lot better. Acting wasn't too bad but looking at the cast you almost expected something ten times better. the violence was pretty high as was the action, for this reason i gave it the 3 star rating.

According to Aristotle, the elements of drama are limited, and so you're bound to get some overlap, some story lines that are, to use an ugly word, derivative.
EDISON FORCE (released in Korea as simply EDISON) is about as derivative as it gets. Promptly after establishing its "corrupt police force" story, it refuses to do anything other than row its boat down the same predictable plotlines that have been established in hundreds of other movies with the same intentions and goals. It's ... Read More

Okay for the 100th time we see a movie about a corrupt police force. In this particular case you couldn't get much closer to "Magnum Force" or "Serpico" if you tried. I suppose the younger crowd may see a little "Assault on Precinct 13", the remake, in this movie. Now given the acting talent and not to bad a presentation I still say this is worth at least a rental. I understand them reworking material for the kids who haven't watched all the previous versions of police corruption, that will make kids ... Read More

I thought this movie was amazing. Yeah, so the story's been told before, so what. The acting in this movie is what did it for me. Everyone from Timberlake to Cool J to Freeman were amazing. And there were a lot of big names in this one. I'm actually surprised I'd never really heard of it before I was browsing Netflix. Probably one of the best acting movies I've ever seen.

Wow this has to be one of the most badly made cop movies I have ever seen. I mean getting 2 of Hollywood's best in Morgan Freeman and Kevin Spacey in this mess is nothing but a waste of their talent. And Justin Timberlake in this movie? Stick to recording annoying songs Justin! This is just another example of why recording artists should not be acting unless you're Treach, Sting, Ice Cube, Mos Def, Andre 3000, Big Boi or LL Cool J. And speaking of LL Cool, he happens ...
