The genre is a big umbrella, so it’s always fascinating to see what movies fit underneath. One surprising project is currently at the top of the Netflix charts. Dragged Across Concrete is the #2 crime drama on the Netflix charts, and three years later, it’s got people talking again.
In the film, once two overzealous cops get suspended from the force, they must delve into the criminal underworld to get their proper compensation.
Dragged Across Concrete was written and directed by S. Craig Zahler. The cast includes Mel Gibson, Vince Vaughn, Tory Kittles, Michael Jai White, Don Johnson, Laurie Holden, and Jennifer Carpenter.
People who have watched Dragged Across Concrete and had nice things to say have taken to Twitter. Many mention their love of the film’s controversial director S. Craig Zahler.
To be honest, I can’t think of two actors who would be better at playing cops than Gibson and Vaughn. If you think Dragged Across Concrete is your kind of movie, you can watch the trailer below:
Upon initial release, the film was met with pushback due to Zahler’s own political beliefs as well as the casting of Mel Gibson. Gibson is known for making anti-semetic and racist remarks on more than one occasion. Despite that, he still continues to be cast in major film and television roles.
Dragged Across Concrete is currently streaming on Netflix. It has been on the streamer for two weeks and has been in the top 10 twice. I highly suggest you search the title and see what fans are tweeting about the film. There are many tweets I’m not shouldn’t share on a family-friendly website, but I am sadly not surprised to see them.
