Cowboy Cop | |
| The Rookie (1990) / int_3dd3951e | comment |
Cowboy Cop: Nick, as appropiate for someone played by Clint Eastwood, is a "beat up crooks first, ask questions later" kind of guy. It ends up rubbing on David, as his thrashing of the bar shows. | |

Mook Horror Show | |
| The Rookie (1990) / int_6860368a | comment |
Mook Horror Show: David instantly switches from coward to badass when his partner Nick is kidnapped. When he enters a bar in which he previously had the shit beaten out of him, he first breathes fire on the bartender, beats up half the patrons and fires off several rounds from his gun - at this point, the patrons are standing in stunned silence. Then he trashes the place and sets fire to it, at which point they all flee in terror. | |
