Peter Weller and Sam Elliott star in this lawyer/cop buddy action film. The action scenes were fun, but they couldn't make up for the boring dramatic scenes involving Peter Weller and his love life. Unbelievable and unimportant character development combined with some really terrible writing make Shakedown a film that could have been fun but failed miserably. The score was apparently "realized" by some dude so I figured some thought went into it, but it just seemed like the concept album version of a generic 80s action score. Which is to say that it sucked. Also of note: the final scene involves an airplane flying dangerously close to the World Trade Center. Scary.
5/10
