Guided to "Zulu" for Entertainment


Zulu
John Andrews

    In Cape Town, South Africa, where unrest is always prevalent, two detectives, Ali and Brian, are tasked with solving the murder of the daughter of a rugby team owner. The good cop, Ali (Forest Whitaker), collects a drug from two young boys that causes you to turn violent and lash out. Brian (Orlando Bloom), the bad cop, womanizer, poor father, and lousy ex-husband, seeks answers in the opposite fashion of Ali: gun wielding, brutality, and fear. Orlando Bloom's performance was average. Legolas and Will Turner were masked by special effects and other bigger performances, Aragorn and Jack Sparrow. With only Forest Whitaker to take the other spotlight, Bloom's chops were exposed a bit. The plot has been done before and was a bit empty. Entertaining if nothing else.
